Internet Outage, Entertainment Man Podcast....

               I know things haven't been easy with the net issues and I had to start cutting out the platforms.... I honestly do not know how in the world I am going to promote it when I update the feed.  However as you guys saw I didn't promote all the links and nothing has been promoted yet as I am waiting till everything is cleared. I am pre writing this so things can change but at the most I will be updating this website and Mixcloud so it is ready for the weekend so expect a double upload. This gives my internet provider time to iron out any of the issues. This means Thursday's episode may follow the same guidelines as Sunday minus YouTube.  Episode is already uploaded to Castbox but I will try Mixcloud and getting it onto Archive.org by Wednesday (tomorrow) see where we stand with that. 

              Update: Everything is back to normal now and everything is back on the right track, internet is back up to par but my position with the collab may not change as I am now 2 days behind and I went off at Larry over the weekend but all good now and I will talk more about how I feel tomorrow on the blog. Moving forward I will let you guys know the back up plan in case it doesn't go up and the only issue I had was I couldn't edit the post up as I had no way to do it via mobile and edit and fix that entire issue. Anyways that is what is going on with things and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

I Had To Change Internet Browsers....

               Yesterday, I got inspired to write this from a fellow broadcaster friend of mine. We both had Chrome issues and honestly I have had my share of issues with Chrome Dome. For those who don't know, I use Tweetdeck on Chrome and ever since they changed things around since Flash is now slowly and everything is becoming HTML5, the Browser wouldn't even let me pop up the create new tweet and I had to keep on refreshing each and every time which really annoyed the heck out of me as I like to tweet, I like to interact with you guys when I get the time to tweet what I am up to with Chris B On The Web. Like honestly Chrome has changed so much in the last little while. Especially the fact LightIRC doesn't even work and as you know that's the chat system I use to have on the website at one point of time and I'm not sure even if I would have a chat system but I got an idea for one in the way of the contact page but that's another blog post for another day. 


                I did the right thing and switch browsers and  I am now proudly using Mozilla Firefox and right now, so far, so good, no problems whatsoever but it hasn't been a full 24 hours or 1 day since switching over to this browser I am now using Firefox and i like it and I like the way it looks and it runs very, very smoothly so I do highly recommend it if you're also have issue like I have been, it is probably the best move to another browser. Starting to wonder if Chrome is stable anymore. Honestly I don't wanna be refreshing constantly to be Tweeting out to you guys when I gotta say something to you guys. But finally, it is what it is and I gotta do what I gotta do and if I have to change browsers, so be it.

Internet Update

              So as you know I have had a few issues with the internet and still have the odd issue this morning but for the most part it is operational but keeping an eye out on it over the next couple of days. Now this morning, I had a internet connection issue after I took the WiFi off still it is a bit of a problem with it but like I said I will keep an eye out on things. Is it annoying that the problem is still occurring? Yes of course! I mean if you think about it I upload the podcasts to the platforms and it takes quite amount of the resources to upload the content for you guys.


              What will I do if I still get a internet connection error now that the WiFi setting is off and I am using the hard wire for the internet? I plan on contacting my Internet Service Provider aka Rogers and try to figure out what is going on with my connection. Now mind you my phone connection to the WiFi is fine, I may end up trying to reboot the system see if that helps with the connection. Maybe that is what my PC needs is a reboot as it has been running non stop 24-7 so my PC is telling me I am tired of running non stop 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for the past 7 weeks now, soon going onto 8 weeks ever since Big Brother Canada has started so I think the computer is a bit slower as it hardly gets rebooted and I should ever day or ever 2nd day at the most. 


             Really I do not know what the problem is, I know I thought the hard wire was the issue but I worked with the WiFi card for a bit with no problems. So I am completely confused what to do or what the problem is with the internet and maybe this is the time I need to reach out with Rogers and see what they say about the situation but again by tomorrow or Tuesday I will be deciding what I wanna do, I know I got options and shouldn't be afraid to explore options!

Rogers Internet Is Really Getting On My Nerves!

                   Last night kind of stuck my last nerve with Rogers Internet, had nothing but connection issues with my internet and trying to get podcasts out it doesn't make things easy for me whatsoever but hey I am trying the best I can to get the content so that is one of the reasons why sometimes the internet fails me and it isn't my fault when Rogers wants to be stubborn with me to keep the connection flowing. Just another disadvantage sometimes as a podcast but hey expect the unexpected like the Big Brother Canada & Big Brother motto goes. I had connection issues with the web builder on 000webhost as you know my website is currently down still at the moment but working to get it back up soon!


                  So what was the problem with my connection? Well sometimes it tells me I am not connected to the internet when. I look at the front of the WiFi to see if the two blue lights are on and they are! So I am not sure what exactly is going on with the the connection. I tried resetting the router that didn't work, I attached the hard wire that goes from the PC here in the studio to the router and long behold it worked! Go Figure one thing actually works, I yet to try and disconnect it from the PC or Router to try the WiFi card and to see if that possibly failed but this computer I got about 3 or 4 years ago due to my old one and the blue screen of death on the custom built and don't get me wrong, I liked having a custom built computer but this Acer computer has really done the job really well and has been running non stop for the past 8 weeks now with the screens off at night but it is always on standby for things. So anyways back to what I was saying, I doubt it was the WiFi card, as I stated above my computer is not even 5 years old yet or it around that, I think it was in 2014 when I got it so next year would of been the 5th year since I got it. Please do note that I haven't had the best relationship with Rogers over the past years, it's a love/hate relationship with the internet from time to time... LOL. We got a new WiFi router so that is definitely not the problem there 


                 What is the plan if Rogers Internet continues the way it is? Well for once I will be personally calling them up and complaining to them with the internet issue and ask if it is possible to have my IP address reset and see if that makes any difference? Maybe I am getting attacked? My internet works half the times? Haters will hate obviously but come on I gotta get the content out someway, somehow and having internet working half the time ain't going to help me whatsoever. So Rogers Internet YOU HAD ONE JOB!
