Ya Gotta Love Bell

I had to miss posting yesterday because out good old Bell Fibe service was down.  We lost the internet and TV on Sunday night just about bedtime so I didn’t do anything about it until Monday morning.  What a job that was.  The first ‘support person’ that I talked to said that there some something wrong with the modem and it would have to be changed and he would arrange for a tech to install a new one.  Suddenly there was no one on the line and after waiting at least 5 minutes I hung up and called back.  Got a different support person and they said that everything was arranged and a tech would be here to install a new modem between noon and 5 pm.  I hit the roof….  Any way there was nothing I could do about the time unless it was to arrange a time for today (Tuesday).  I had to accept that time frame even though I had started the call about 9am!  After waiting all afternoon with no results I called Bell support at 6pm and was told that the tech was on his way but was stuck in traffic.  He finally arrived at 7pm.  At last a tech who really knew what he was doing.  


He rewired the incoming line with new connection/splitter the new modem was directly connected to the splitter and mounted in the furnace room, where our electrician was going to install it.  He then installed a wifi box for the TV that was connected to the original modem via coax cable.  Why the original installed did not do this is beyond me!


We are now fully WiFi.


Today the granite counter tops were delivered and installed and I must admit they do look quite smart.  The black does make a contrast with the light colours in the living and dinning rooms and only adds contrast and livens up both rooms.   Tomorrow the plumber will be in to finish up the plumbing and, connect the dishwasher and  new kitchen sink and taps.


Also arriving tomorrow will be the tiler to put up the splash guards now that the counters have been installed.  Everything is finally coming together and hopefully the first week in December everything will be finished.  Then it will be just to wait until the new dining room furniture is made and delivered.


Photos for the counter will be put up once the taps have been installed.
