I have internet!

Monday, September 5. 2005

It has taken a very long time, but finally, I have cable TV and internet in my flat! The technicians came today at 7:15 am, the worked for almost an hour, and then everything was done, and I could just plug in the RJ-45 cable into my notebook, switch on DHCP, and be online. Same with TV: I only had to start the automatic channel search, and after a minute, I had all 36 TV stations available.

Later, I have to do some performance tests, how fast everything really is, whether i really got my 4 mbit down/1 mbit up. And I can finally move my servers from my old place to the new flat.

Congratulations!

So you have internat via TV channel? DHCP without any dialup protocoll rules (and that I can plug the uplink port of my switch directly into the cable modem)...

Also, does that mean you again some time for mutt-ng?

Yes, that's correct. All I have is a "Motorola Surfboard" cable modem (which is plugged into the cable TV plug), where I only need to plug in an RJ-45 cable and do DHCP. That's all, actually pretty nifty, and also no hassle for the ISP technicians.

And, yes, it also means that I can again work on mutt-ng. It will probably take me some time to get productive again, but I'll try hard...
