Basecamp - Nerd faff

Sat 08 Jul 2023
Philip Sargent



Another frustrating day with network. WiFi router refused to allow connections - rebooted at ~0830. Ok.

Rebooted network for a reason I can't remember - failed to re-establish routing to router. Much faff standing on chairs typing at netbook as cables all duct taped to the wall with it in final operating position up by ceiling. Found the missing rune, edited into 'runfakenet'. Redocumented everything in handbook. By which time the morning has gone and no progress achieved.

Looked at printer again. No clue as to why printer is not showing up on network (ethernet cable) or wirelessly (NFC or wifi). Can print from Ubuntu 22.04.2 on Martin's laptop or 22.04.3 on Philip's Barbie laptop - but only using USB cable.

Afternoon: added lots of expoers to folk.csv and adding lots of mugshots. Particularly good one of Merryn.
