touched down in Kaohsiung
smooth journey
perfect weather
yet i was stuck with a
laptop which can’t detect
any Wi-Fi network
while I had some urgent task
to start working on immediately
while my phone
managed to access Wi-Fi
provided by the hotel
and there’s no LAN port
in the room
although I did bring
the cable as Plan B
as always
went to the lobby
thinking probably because
the signal is not strong
yet the problem persisted
none of the solution
regarding Device Manager
provided on forum worked
last resort:
data roaming
yesterday I was using
personal hotspot
while working from the airport
and it worked perfectly fine
but back then
my laptop could still
detect Wi-Fi networks
available around the airport
although I wasn’t using them
it kinda panicked me out
when there was no 4G/LTE/whatever
when I turned my data on
so I switched to Wi-Fi
and found out that
I had to manually select
the local telco carrier which
is collaborating with my telco
so now I am on data roaming X
personal hotspot while
in fact my phone is
working perfectly fine
with the Wi-Fi
i could probably list down
a long list of bad experience with
internet while traveling aboard
it’s sort of like a curse, man!
now I have another 1234 words to go
no joke, that’s the exact quantity
which I hope to finish
before I head out to explore Kaohsiung
when I was about to K.O. the file upstairs
got another file about the same volume
to be translated into 2 languages
and i decided to go full force
and get all the 3 files done
soon it was 9:30 PM
explore?
thank goodness this was not
my first meal in Kaohsiung
before I went on to K.O.
a batch of small videos for transcription
almost 12 AM
finally it’s about time to
call it a day
yeah.. have too
since the day is literally ending soon
