telus...reloaded

oh boy. so about an hour and a half on the phone....finally the connection is working. remarkably simple really. somehow this fellow Ray in the Philippines was able to make my modem work in about 10 seconds (after being on hold for a loooong time)...then Melvin in Montreal was able to get me to connect to it wirelessly...it being 'pornden'...Erin's new wireless network. Ray and Melvin, I love you. Telus, you suck.
