Unfortunately the wi-fi connection is currently mis-behaving – what a pain. Seems to be a problem with plug-in and wireless access interfereing with each other. I can’t believe that this is causing a problem. I can run a perfectly good wireless and wired network in my own house, but then I come to a conference and the BL, pay my 35 pounds and then it doesn’t work.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately it is one of those situations where the wireless network is provided by a commercial company (Leith’s), and the wired network is provided by the BL IT dept – so very difficult to get to the bottom of what the problem is.<\/p>\n
I should say that the BL IT staff have been very helpful, as have the person on the wireless network helpline. However – this doesn’t get round the fact that I’ve paid for a 30 day pass on the wireless network, and it doesn’t work! I also can’t get an answer about who is going to refund my money (if it comes to that – I hope it doesn’t).<\/p>\n
I’m also relying on being connected to be able to get through other work, and keep in touch with home base while I’m here – in some ways it is this connection which allows me to attend a conference for a week without compromising my work.<\/p>\n
You may gather – I’m a bit annoyed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
