Tonight I was troubleshooting a few problems on a network and looking to replace the switch with a spare from home. After I had mapped out the network, tested and labelled all the cabling, I installed the switch in the picture. Only to find that most of the ports on said switch have now failed :(.

I replaced the existing switch, localised the ports and ensured everything was working fully before the end of a frustrating evening.

I like the composition of this pic with the blurred foreground giving great focus on some of the tools I'd been using and the infamous switch.

Orange Man phone support or telemarketing, local or outsourced. It really is quite diverse. It can also be a programming or website maintenance concept.

On bottom: NC3134 board, 2 10/100 ethernet ports, on top: an expansion, the NC3135, adds 2 more ports for a total of four.

40 of threesixtyfive

Figured i'd get my threesixtyfive done and over with for today.

This is me working today.

The school district that I work for is holding a Technology Fair for middle and high school children today. Every year, I'm assigned as the tech support person if anything computer or internet related goes wrong. Luckily, nothing ever goes wrong.
