Ok. I think it's working. At least now there is a wired connection to the internet/blue ray player rather than a spotty wifi.
I think I will buy a set for upstairs where my laptop and desktop reside. Thank you Simon for the suggestion.
wifi is great.
it's so easy and convenient.
but it can be slow.. years ago when it first came out you maybe had a pc and a couple of other devices at most.

I heard about this from my nephew who has dreadful internet speed. He said his GF bought a gadget that used the electric wiring to bump the speed for streaming Netflix, which is all I want it for.
So I just bought one from Amazon. I hope it works with my particular Motorola modem. I'll keep you posted. It will be delivered Sunday.

I think I need this. Is this the gadget that I can connect my TV to for better streaming?

I'm glad that part is over for you.
I would think maybe they say odd things when they don't really know what to say or do. Likely, all will get on with their lives.
For about a month after my mom passed I received emails and cards. It was weird as I had not heard from these people in years. But it was thoughtful for them to take the time to communicate. I never responded, so I'm prob the a$$. But what do you do...
You were lucky to have such a loving relationship with your mom. Sending comfort and peace your way min.

Welcome!
how many of us were woken up by some apostate yelling false prophets at a convention?.
how many of us were woken up by someone holding a sign and yelling, what happened to 1975.
how many of us were coerced to investigate the wt because some ex-jw pulled up a bunch of old watchtowers magazines and told us to read the false predictions?.
My observation in being out 14 years is most if not all leave because of their own personal growth.
I understand the need to be an "activist" and voice frustrations...point out the fallacies of the teachings and the shamefulness of their policies. So in the overt demonstrations, I think it is more of a personal, public statement that some just need to say. I venture to say hardly any current JW would be swayed to investigate information from a loud and busy banner type ad. Just my observation. The cult mind is strong. Mine was...I didn't want anything to do with "apostates" even though I was questioning everything.
However I do think the public demonstrations do inform the nonJW community that all is not well with those nice people that come to their door every Saturday morning.
But the internet and youtube...everybody goes to youtube to find out how to do things. I've met so many at fests who just stumbled on a youtube that spoke to them. One thing led to another, they investigate the websites and they are out.
thank you all for your sincere encouragement during these last few weeks.
finally, she is at peace.
i was with her , holding her hand when she died.
So sorry for your loss min. I'm glad you were together through all this through to the end. It is a sacred time, the passing of a life.
