Switch Off
June 4th, 2008
The other night, my 16-port switch at home gave in. No wonder my transfers were mediocre the last couple of weeks. Anyway, I resorted to using two 4-port routers so that gave me seven (7) slots only. The house is 50% off the network for two days already. I had to sacrifice the network printer, so nobody can print unless I’m home and temporarily unplug a slot. I can’t buy a new switch because I don’t want to invest a few dollars for a new one (I can’t afford apparently). I’ll be scavenging for old routers to uplink. That switch only had a year of lifespan? Heh! That’s what I get for buying a cheap one. It also reminds me that I should get new switches for work. Some slots are already dead and they’re more than 5 years old. I should get when I have my new T1 installed.
