3 reasons I refuse to use WiFry (despite making a living working online)

avatar

By John C. A. Manley

Last summer, the modem supplied by my internet service provider broke down. So I ran it to the shop on the edge of town and exchanged it for their latest model.

The lady there told me I'd have to call technical support to get it working.

Turned out she was wrong.

When I got back home, I plugged it in, connected the fibre and snapped in the four Ethernet cables we have snaking around the apartment — it started working automatically.

So I didn't bother calling tech support.

Instead, the next day they called me.

"I'm calling to virtually set up your modem and get you online," said the tech guy.

"But it's working fine.”

“Strange. On my side, it’s showing there's no WiFi."

"That's fine by me. I'm using Ethernet cables."

"You don't want WiFi?"

"No."

"Why not?"

I gave him three reasons:

  1. WiFi slows down the high-speed fibre optic connection I’m paying a premium for.
  2. WiFI is less secure.
  3. WiFI poses physical and mental health risks with long-term exposure.
I then joked about how having WiFi means I would have to spend more money on tin-foil hats.

He laughed and said he agreed with all three points.

Apparently, I wasn't the first customer to say no to WiFry.

Am I foolishly passing up the opportunity to check emails while emptying my bowels on the toilet? Usually, the people who think I'm overreacting haven’t even spent five minutes researching the harms of wireless technology.

lol I tried to get the cable guy to show me how to hardwire when he installed the cable. Even though hardwiring was the only way for a homeowner to access the internet not all that long ago, and certainly during his time as a cable guy, he did not know how to do it. He told me all sorts of BS about the router, such as, if I didn't keep it on, it would miss its nightly update, and stop functioning. I have it for when more than one person needs to access it at a time. So simple to just reboot the modem.

I do wish I could have more than one device plugged into the modem at one time, I don't trust that the router will actually not be broadcasting if its plugged in at all.

I started your book two days ago. So far, I'm loving it. It's reminding me of the BS I experienced because I wouldn't wear a mask, or isolate, quarantine, or keep my mouth shut. Thanks for reminding us about the little injustices so many of us seem to have forgotten.

The internet is very important when it is damaged like this, the network should be abandoned

Absolutely, your point is completely valid. We should now opt for other communication media that are less disadvantageous.

And actually that is why in some situations, there are some things we actually think it is a big fault but when we look closely into it, we can handle it by ourselves. Example is just the scenario you have

It happened to us once too, the gambling that was there cut the internet bill, so we also faced problems for a few days, not knowing what happened to the wire, then after that we Very good quality cable was installed as we work online and internet is very important for us.
