Small crisis here: our Netgear WGR614v6 cable modem/router/access point badger has performed its “No! I'm not going to actually respond to wireless traffic! Ha ha ha ha!” trick again. This happens periodically, for no readily apparent reason. (I think it's to do with enabling or disabling the MAC-based access restriction stuff, but it's not easily reproducible, mainly because we can't figure out how to make it work again other than waiting for a few weeks. The real solution is just to replace the router, and I'm doing this.) Anyway, those of us in the same house as the router don't have a problem, because we can just use wires, but those next door kinda can't. One of them has an essay due tomorrow and needs at least one blagotube to finish the essay, so I decided it was time to turn my laptop into an access point.

That's enough tech stuff for now. I'll post some Amsterdam photos and stuff soon, I promise.
