Author Topic: Internet down  (Read 1948 times)

So today I woke up and came downstairs to play blockland. I had just gotten on when my dad came in and asked for me to help with the Xmas lights. When I said I didn't want to he got all mad and said,"the get off that game and go do your History homework!" in a real mad tone. I said ok and went and started on it. I came in there after I left and he was looking at the computer messing with it. Turns out he was shuting down the Internet. My mom says that it may be a while till we get the Internet back, if not forever. So pretty much I can't do anything on the computer that involves the Internet, but what really stinks is that we just got a new computer the week before. This is making Maze ANGRY.

So how did you post it? :|

You can fix it if you actually knew what he was doing. You can't 'shut the internet down' but you can shut off a router or unplug an Ethernet cable. How are you on the internet right now anyways?

Yes, how would one go about posting something without the aid of an internet connection?


Tell us what exactly it is keeping you from using the internet on that specific computer.

The OP is probably just computer inept and accidentally disconnected from his wireless network.
Are you on a mac maze?

My internet goes down all the time. Stupid Linksys router :(

how could you Not want to help your dad with the Xmas lights?

I'm assuming that your father is obsessive about Christmas.

Moral of the story: Help people do what they ask, or else they will get pissed.
2nd Moral: If someone has more authority than you over what you do, you better listen to them. (Even though it's a total ass move to control people for everything)

No, I'm pretty sure that he's normal and would like his son to help him do things when he says to.

Lol.

Serious? You said you didn't want to put lightbulbs up and you lose access to the internet?

Also, unless your dad is that good with computers and found some way to completely remove internet, he can't just shut off the internet. He probably just removed the connection setup or removed the ethernet cable. Lol.


From what I can understand, though, he wasn't removing the network hardware from the computer, so it's probably really easy to set up again.

You deserve it. You should get off your ass, and help your father sometime.
