Life on the Road

We’re definately having mixed results with out latest tech endeavours.

The blog move went swimmingly.  Got the database configured, imported the posts from the free blog site, configured the display, and we’re off and running.

The other project we are (okay, Wolf is) working on is getting a network set up.  Right now, the Verizon wireless broadband card is plugged into the “old” laptop, and the “new” latop (which can’t take the card) is only able to get online if we’re at a WiFi “hot spot.”

Out technical advisor (and next-door campsite neighbor!) is Rich, who wrote The Digital RV.  (We also enjoy keeping up with his blog).

So we purchased a router, which takes the Verizon card and broadcasts a wireless signal - so both laptops could (theoretically) be happily online together.  But it’s not working well.  Everything seems to check out fine, but the laptops won’t stay connected to the wireless network.  Hmmmm…
