Computer wizard - and the benefits of Unwired

Hello all, and happy Christmas!

Well its been a busy last few days, what with wrapping up the year and setting up a new computer. This is my 2nd PC, but the first one I've ever had an internet connection for! So its been a learning curve but not too bad.

There's so much involved! What with getting the latest Windows, getting updates, installing anti virus.....the list goes on. But its all done, up and running now! Phew.

I must say it does feel great to be connected to the net at home, finally. The energy and money I spent getting around to internet cafes will get paid back pretty quick by having the net at home! (the costs of buying snacks on the run mounts up!!)

A word about my internet service. I bought an Unwired modem from department store Harvey Norman. I wanted a pre-paid broadband but didn't think one was available - but after a quick look at the Unwired display I realised I could get it! So I purchased a wireless modem for $189, which includes 7 days internet access.

Ihave to say it was easy to set up, the modem sits quietly in the corner on the window sill and I've had absolutely no problems so far. At certain times of the day the connection slows somewhat, but that hasn't been a major issue.

I highly recommend Unwired to anyone wanting a relatively quick and painless setup! It comes with free email and a very easy way to check your current balance and remaining download allowance. Very nice!!

OK - that's all from me, probably my last post for the year. God bless to all, take care and have a great holiday period!

Be safe, be well.

Kind regards

I couldn't live without my computer. My husband has out house set up for wireless internet. It doesn't matter where you sit or what room you are in you can connect to the internet.
