One too many mornings

Exterity moved offices on Friday, 2 weeks ago. It is only now we are getting things together. The actual move went smoothly enough, and the new accomodation is fantastic. Each desk has four switched network points, two RF feeds and half a dozen power sockets. There is a lot more room which means the office doesn’t heat up to over 30 degrees even on the warm days we’ve been having, and if it does there is air con too.

The reason why things are only now geting back to normal is that BT will not allow you to buy a phone line and a DSL line at the same time. So it takes them two weeks to set up the DSL line, even though it is just an admin task for them. Luckily our hosts Cemtron have allowed us to use a proxy till then. Unluckily they only allow web traffic.
