I’m all packed and will be heading to the airport in a few hours. We’re not finished with the configuration but I should be able to finish the rest of my tasks remotely, as long as the connection is fast enough. I’m going to miss the one here, where I regularly get 400KB/s downloads and 27ms ping times to my server. Back at work it’s around 30-40KB/s on a good day and ping times often go above 1 second. It’s hard to get much work done remotely with that kind of lag.
I hope you have fun and Happy Halloween.
Lag is evil. I telecommute 3 times a week and sometimes the lag through the company’s gateway is unbearable. It makes work efficiency drop by orders of magnitude. Sometimes there is no noticeable lag, but usually there is a small 100-300 ms delay.
I agree and it’s annoying because they’re wasting our time and their money. For a few hundred bucks a month they could get a connection that would allow people to be much more productive.
Just came to say goodbye.I’m going to stay off line until next year.I hope you have some very happy holidays.Take care.
Happy holidays to you as well, Tammie. See you next year.
No updates since 2002 and yet I still have found my way here. Thank you internet.
Howdy Sam, I’m still here and posting, just not on this old post. :)
