smoketetsuo | I Can Has Interwebs?

My internet has been acting up a lot tonight. My satellite modem seems to have been having a hard time maintaining connection. I can tell because there are lights on the front and the first two lights are supposed to be constantly lit (the second is the link to the satellite I guess) but the second one that I was told shouldn't ever blink was either blinking or looking dim. So Adium kept on disconnecting and I had a hard time loading web pages.

I don't know if it was because of weather or what... typically weather doesn't affect it that much and I have had a night before where the sky was totally clear and there was no wind and it did the same thing. It's one drawback to being on Wild Blue besides the latency which makes it not good for real time applications and the restrictions on how much you can download each month. Thankfully it doesn't happen every day though.

I just hope the part that fails for some people on the satellite isn't failing for me though. At least not until I can get onto a better alternative.
