I think I'm a geek.....

[Glen]

I just got my wireless router and network set up at home....what a guru.

Took me 1 hour and 50 minutes in phone calls to the Cisco helpdesk in Manila but it's working....woohoo. I think I might just go and slip on a cardigan and do some maths next.....

[hoffy]

[SoundGuy]

If you were a geek, you would of done it all by yourself without the help

[6maniac]

And pass up spending 1.5 hrs talking to a hottie in Manila ????

[aardvark]

If you were a geek, you would of done it all by yourself without the help

And without reading the manual.... at least, until you couldn't work it out, then you ring the help desk,
They say: "Hello IT, have you tried switching it off and on again?"
You say: "Yes"
They say: "RTFM"

So you do, and it works. l33t!!

you will earn your geek wings when you teach some one to do what you just did in 1 hr

Easy as. You plug it all in, switch it all on, read the instructions that tell you not to plug it all in and switch it all on, do what the manual says, say f#@k 27 times when you realise that you need to get the 1800dial geek number off their website (very handy when you're trying to set up a router), have a long and meaningful conversation with the lass in Manila, and away you go.

Having said all that the Cisco helpdesk is really good

..and Hoff, whats this TV you speak of. We still have the transistor radio here

[kaneg]

Well done Glen,
