Connected with Duncan via The Cloud support line. Turns out that the router here in the pub needed a reboot. Duncan called the pub lady who duly kicked/rebooted the router.
That allowed the rooter to connect to the authorisation system.
Alas my username has (temporarily) stopped working. That’s a secondary issue. Duncan gave me a temporary code to login.
Conveniently it’s still working so I can get my work done.
I reckon it would be good if The Cloud implemented a traffic light status system to let users such as me do a quick hotspot search and check that service is currently operational at the location where I’m about to go.
“duncan called the pub landlady who duly rebooted the router”!?
Is this really the future of a 21st century wireless connected world?
I am scared, really really scared…
