Mr Geri bought a laptop for his Dad a few weeks ago. He's retiring and interested in learning more about computers.
He signed up with Smart Telecom BB, as his daughter lives in Italy and the calls are alot cheaper than Eircom.
So, since getting the lap-top and the broad band connection the connection speed is VERRRRRY slow. It takes up to 5 mins to open a page, and most times freezes mid way opening a page. Mr Geri has been on to Smart on numerous occasions, who claim every thing is ok at their end. He's also been back to PC world and thay claim there's nothing wrong with the lap top. So, no-one really wants to know, and we know feck all about this type of thing. Is there a "computer repair man" al la "washing machine repair man" type person who could come out and try to get to the bottom of the problem. Its all getting to be a bit much, and Mr Geri in law is fast loosing interest!
