I was sitting at the computer, wrapping up some emails, when I remembered that I hadn't told y'all about something that I had meant to. It's been a challenge for me remembering that I even have this blog, much less remembering what I wanted to add to it, and I can't believe that I forgot this when I posted earlier! I've been trying to keep up with the whole blog, but having never done it before, it's not as easy as I had thought it would be.
But we had a networking issue with one of our other computers, I had mentioned in a previous post about the wireless router issues with my Mac. Our desktop was not picking up our wireless signal either (I know, we have the darndest luck with that) and we couldn't plug it directly into a phone jack in the room that we wanted the computer set up in because, well, there was no phone jack. So my husband went online and did a whole lot of researching and figured out a great way to solve the problem.
He purchased a new cool tool for us called a Powerline Network Adapter and it has been splendid. We have one made by Cisco: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/products/PLTE200
It solved our problem beautifully and we were able to put the desktop in any room that had an electrical outlet, even though it lacked a phone jack. So if you have a similar problem, take a look at this handy little device.
