Is there the joy of living? So people tell me and as long as things go according to plan for me I tend to agree. However, then my phone went on the blink and no phone. So I didn’t worry because I had the Internet. The on August 18 an electric thunderstorm knocked out our Internet. It also created havoc with our PCs.
The phone company came in a week and we thought we would get lucky. No such thing after five visits over 2 weeks we finally got back online. Now I have to do a lot of cleanups and I am stuck working on a laptop which I do not like. I am faced with the expense of looking for a used PC so I can get back to a desktop model and unfortunately that will make September an extremely lean month. So if any of you wondered what had happened to me it was all because I had absolutely no communication.
i suspect the issue you experienced had to do with copper wire. copper is really good at conducting electricity.
Sorry about your pc, hopefully, all is restored!
