The mobile phone company has been giving me a hard time again with
the damn 3G sunset thing and saying that my phone will not work on
their network, etc. I woke up yesterday to my phone only having
emergency service. So I headed on over to one of their stores and
had another talk with them.
Timing was bad since I was waiting to hear back from some jobs.
After about an hour with dealing with them and their support people,
they got me back up and running. Later on, they disco'd my phone
again when I tried to make a phone call and was immediately directed
to their support center instead of completing my call. The tech was
able to remove the "blocks" on my phone and was back in business.
This time around, my phone showed "HD 4G" by the signal bars, rather
than the 3G or 4G that I usually see. Technically, my phone works on
their network. They just don't want to authorize it. Maybe because
I didn't get the phone from them and they don't want phones that
don't have their brand of spyware baked in. Well, whatever it is, I
am looking into other options since this is not the first time they
have not liked my phone. I didn't usually take their phones when
they were giving them out before...the last phone I got from a cell
provider was probably the Treo 680. Back then, you could just swap
the SIM cards with different phones with no problems. Not so easy
these days.
Enought about that.
Lately, I have been doing more stuff on my test network in the lab.
I have been messing around with old wireless routers and updating
their firmware with more recent custom firmware.
20211223 UPDATE: This is an old phost I didn't finish, but gonna
upload anyways. I have too many of these.
