Vattuvarg's

The first week of this year's summer vacation is almost gone. The days have stepped by slowly, almost numb. The first days were dominated by sleep and something almost like recovery.

I sleep less now, by the way, and it really shouldn't surprise me. But it does. Some things get done, stuff that have been pushed in front of me for a long time.

Like the household #network. A curiosity for having a slightly more advanced setup got me up from the bed a bit earlier and held me from sleeping minutes or even hours later. The result is more aloneliness time at the computer and an environment with more digital performance and flexibility. To cut a long story short the network now does more and irritates less. It is a bit strange to build better connections to the lives on the internet while isolating myself to do it.

And nobody really cares about the results. The less they notice it the better I set things up. ...and the way the network is now there's less friction for anyone to notice. My efforts are invisible to the naked eye, really. Only those who pay attention get to enjoy the difference. The others are too blind to notice.

The way things are now, the entire household shares one cable network and all the access-points now handle just one wifi zone with multiple radios allowing the devices to roam both among the frequency bands and the different speeds. Coverage has improved too. The new configuration makes the networked printer visible to all of the household. ...and the delays in ping times have been cut in half for those who play the normal internet games. Achieving it is my type of game, if you wonder.

Tomorrow I'm spoiling the dog. She's been wonderful the entire week and has really deserved a reward.
