V4L from South America

[Mariano]

Hi everyone...
Here I am from my beutifull hometown Buenos Aires in Argentina and right now watching the sea from my sumer house's window in Uruguay, today weather is not the best, cloudy and windy, but this place still beautifull and full of memories like every time we come.

Finally after 5 days I'm able to connect to the internet....I was supposed to have DLS working here in my summer house in Punta del Este Uruguay.
Everything looked great when we arrived, the modem was there, lights on, but when I hooked the laptop...of course no internet .

After 25 calls to the provider, and fight with every possible person...today I'm back here.....

My trip is half plasure and half work...that is a great combination, right now is plasure, but when back in Buenos Aires my work start with plenty of meetings and work lunches...

We are trying to explore new markets and of course there is no better place to start than my own home, here people smokes a lot...and I will do my best to create the same philosophy we allready have back home in the USA.

Ok sice I'm conected right now I will be posting and uploading some photos for you guys to see how this part of the world look like.

Steve..HAPPY BIRTHDATE!!!!...I know...but better late than never ...sorry...I had big problems with my connection as u can read in my tread.

Cheers to all of you

Hi Mariano,

I hope you have a great time while you're there and that the business part of your trip is very successful.

Dealing with internet providers is not fun here either, but I'm glad you got that straightened out.

Have fun and don't work too hard.

OH, I know the frustration dealing with getting your internet back up, but that aside, I hope you enjoyed the disconnected days.
I'm planning to go back home in a couple of months for the first time in about 6 years, I'm so looking forward to it.

Take it easy man.

How are you trying to upload?
What service are you using for the pics?

Most important, if the Internet is too slow, (not all that likely) you might be getting some timeout errors, are you?
