If you have not been out to the centre on a Saturday
you might be surprised by all the activity. Even more so
during internet clinics which are usually held the first
Saturday of each month.
Mike Gellard gives Jim Thornton some TIPs.
Run by a fearless group of friendly volunteers, these
clinics are for those members who find themselves in the
sitaution of not being able to get their hardware/software
operational with The Internet Project in spite of reading
the documentation and carefully following the instructions
provided. They are not intended as an installation service
but are happy to assist when all else fails.
So if all else has failed, bundle up all your equipment
(cables, leads, modem - everything) and take your computer in
for a check up. If these people can not help you then it’s
probably time to panic.
The volunteers request that you call ahead so everyone
doesn’t show up at once as there is a limit to how many things
they can do at once.
