If you own a D-Link product…

…make damn sure that by Monday you’ve done all your firmware upgrades, read your manuals and asked all your necessary questions, because it looks like, due to some obvious breech in the fabric of space-time, or perhaps as a cruel joke perpetrated by the gods to amuse themselves, as of Monday, December 6th, 2004, a day that will live in infamy, I will be answering your networking questions at the call center that I’ll be calling home until they finally catch on to the fact that I haven’t the foggiest clue what I’m going to be talking about, since the very thing in the realm of computing I know the least about has to be networking, although I don’t know much about how to add more blinky-lights to my laptop, either, but the odds of my learning how to add more blinky-lights to Gromet are much better than my really understanding networking, so I’l have a hundred little blinky-lights scattered in delightful patterns around my Toshiba’s case long before I’ve managed to get your wireless notebook to connected through your wired router to your cable modem box and out onto the Internet while at the same time trying to DMZ your Xbox so you can get back to your online Halo game.

This should be interesting…
