After several days, much begging, a lot of annoyance today, and getting poked in the butt by a window (don't ask!) I have Cable Modem Connection in my room! The final computer is hooked up.
I kept screwing up the connections, but I got things DONE! yay for the non geek, and I only had to beg for help once!
The thank you list:
kazama for general help, for one working cable, and one non working *sighs*
bunicula for the loan of the tools to cut and crimp the wire, and the end connectors so I didn't have to buy any (done with ONE connector to spare!)
endless_spirit and
thenetimp for general suggestions and helpfulness
AND
My dear CB, who provided the cabling, the general instruction, the guidance in Radio Shack, and lack of moral support *evil grin*
I have to go put everything away, avoiding the biting windows in the closet (I said don't ask) and then find Lou, I thought he was calling once he got home and was free for the night. I'm a little concerned that he hasn't called yet, so I'm going to call his mom. Damnit, the boy promised me sushi! And I want some!
