Jeri Says Hello

For the last several days, Jeri (elderjane) has not been able to log in to or even see the MyBloggers website. She gets a "Page Cannot be Displayed" error on all three browsers she has tried. She's talked to the help desks at her Norton, ISP, and HP computer support. She tried to talk to the modem manufacturer, Netgear but it didn't go so well because the Asian help desk person couldn't understand Jeri's Oklahoma accent, and she couldn't understand their accent, whatever it was.

Her ISP tried calling Eddie about it, if you can imagine. I don't know if she has tried to log in on Ted's lap top or her son's computer, but you would think her son would have thought of that. I told her if Bobby can get in from his house, then don't bother calling Netgear because that clears Jeri's modem of wrong-doing. I am able to log in as Jeri, and someone else (maybe it was Eddie) logged in as her this morning, so I am positive it is something to do with her computer.

One of the things I suggested she look at is the parental controls feature of Windows 8. It would be easy for someone to block MyBloggers using that.

Well, anyhow, hello to you all from Jeri.

I've never heard of Netgear, and now I'm glad....
Hoping Jeri gets all the connection issues settled....

I haven't been able to load the site from home for a week. 3 diff computers or the ipad-- since it's the same network. Only on my phone.

Getting overwhelmed with constant computer problems and just spent $150 to a "fixer" outfit that I should have ignored, to find a file that was "eaten". It's a long story. Hope Jeri's problem gets straightened out -- I miss her.

We're keeping up our correspondence with regular email. I'll let her know you miss her and said hello.

Certainly missed her and wondered if she was ill, good to know she's ok
Internet can do funny things at times , am using Belkin wireless modem but last week for a time I had to use Ethernet cable for some reason , back to wireless now

It has been very frustrating - she's tried everything. She had a log-in 4 days ago - that was the help desk lady at the ISP.

OMG!!!! I just got a new modem from Netgear--called for help setting it up-- I would never buy a product from Netgear AGAIN!!!

Are you sure Jeri is old enough to get into mybloggers??? Better ask her!

I'll tell her you said that she might not be old enough. Flatterer!

She's just about given up, but said she misses your humorous posts.
