Our internet has not been working at home since Friday. The power, ADSL and WLAN lights come on but not the light for “internet”. No idea why it’s not working. It seems like once I’m home, I’m “out of touch” with what’s going on. Reminds me of this Hall & Oates classic, Out of Touch:
Sure I have access to the internet at work, but when I’m at work, I try to focus on the job (novel concept, right?! 😉 ) and usually save my blogging for late at night. No can do now that Omantel has disconnected my internet connection.
You’re out of touch (dear readers), I’m out of time (gotta go home now!) and I’m out of my head when you’re not around I can’t use the internet in my own home!

Andy, I feel your pain!! I’ve been having some of the same connection problems with Nawras in Nizwa. Either I can’t connect at all, or it keeps disconnecting me in the middle of something, or it’s extremely slow uploading pictures. I don’t know what’s going on in Oman!! 🙂
Cathy,
Just reading this old comment and thinking about how nice it is to have internet once again. Thanks for the sympathy and support! 🙂
Well, I’m so glad to see you have your problems solved and you’re back with us again!! Look forward to more posts from the famous Andy in Oman!! 🙂
I believe that should be “infamous”, Cathy! 😉 Thanks!
Sucks buddy! Hope that it is fixed soon!
Sythe,
Thanks for the support and especially for the idea of tweeting Jalal who was a lot of help!
This calls for Disaster Management. Time for an upgraded change maybe. I usually consider these events the Lord’s way of telling me I need change, (which I normally would not have forced myself to do). Maybe you don’t need Omantel after all … Sorry if this seems heartless. I know the lack of internet can drive you crazy. It did that to me two weeks ago.
Mandy,
Well, I gave Friendi a shot but that was definitely not a great option for my internet needs. I’m glad I stuck it out as Omantel connection is working quite well now! Thanks for stopping in and giving your 2 cents worth! 🙂
