But you might inquire about the future plans for that area. Verizon progresses pretty fast.

I have wireless too and at first did not get a good signal, sm
What my wireless tech told me was to get a telescoping pole from the hardware store like a pole for an antennae. It was 30 feet tall when extended. So he installed my wireless antennae on this pole and now my signal is awesome. So for those of you not getting luck with wireless signals due to trees, hills, etc. get you a pole.
I worked for Signal as well and Signal and MDI-MD
worked for.  I believe that's because of the owner.
Yeah, and we are doing such a good job
protecting ourselves over here. Are you crazy? They picked up a handful of muslim men crossing the Mexico border into Texas. They didn't speak a lick of Spanish. I wonder how many others get across they never pick up. If you think that Bush went to Iraq for anything other then political reasons, you are crazy. I support our soldiers over there 100%, and I think since we started we have to finish it. If we didn't, we would be crazy. Bush did not have our best intrests in mind though. He might have fooled everyone in thinking he did. That is why he had such support. Every war has been political. I never said be nice to them. I never said war was not neccessary at times either. We have done nothing but breed more of them by our actions though or lack thereof. When you see the next terrorist attack on US soil, then you will see what a fine job our president has done in protecting his people.

Also, I don't have anger problems. I just feel very strongly about certain issues. Like I said before, there are 2 sides to everything. Everything is not so clear cut, and I get sick of people who want to put a generalized idea out there and think that it applies across the board or people who are so quick to judge others, but have never even been in a situation where they know what they are even talking about.
Oh, yeah, that's not good.
they need to get rid of her- its a patient care and safety issue!

I know exactly how you feel because you don't want this shoddy work to go out and I wouldn't either, but I wonder if your company takes for granted you will fix it so it enables them to do nothing about it? You might remind them that while this may be saving money for them at the moment, when a mistake she made ends up causing patient harm, what will be the cost then? Good luck.
try this if you have no signal.....sm
Open Explorer, type in address box your IPS access number, click go, then click on Wizard setup and follow instructions.
Oh yeah and good luck!

Well that won't happen. I was with Signal.

a public message board bashing the owner.  In fact, I posted a post on the company board (which was deleted because I mentioned her name) in support of the owner, the gist of which you copied in your big-printed message above.  You just said exactly what I said in my post on the company board.  LOL.


You know, if you have a problem with her email - tell HER.  Don't come to a public message board anonymously and bash her.  And don't say all that crap and then say how much you love the company and how she's a good businesswoman and then copy what I said in my post on the other board.


It depends on how far you are away from the signal.

The signal is only capable of certain distances.  If you have plumbing pipes between where your router is and where you are trying to use the laptop that could lessen the signal.  I don't know all the whys and hows, but have been networking with a bunch of guys who are computer gurus and they tell me that the water/plumbing deflects the signal.  You can get antenna that are stronger that replace your current antenna.  They aren't very expensive and you can get them at just about any computer store. 


You also might actually be getting the signal on the laptop but you may have a conflict and not be able to see it.   I met a man who had just bought a laptop that was WiFi compatible but he couldn't get it to work.  I can't remember what steps I went through now, but he was connecting, he just had his internet setup so there was a conflict in being able to receive and see that he was connected. 


Go to control panel and then click on network and internet connections and you should be able to see there if your laptop is talking with the router and if it is then you need to play around with your ISP settings


 


 


Yeah, it's early.....good grammar! You know what I mean though! - nm

Yeah, that's a good one to have. I have that one and I bought it new. It's really helpful to

Yeah really Tinks... must be some good stuff!
 
If neighbors have DSL, can pick up signal with that same
zz
The signal cannot be picked up on wireless if you
even if you DON'T, they can only pick up and use  your SIGNAL for access - not YOUR actual online activity.  How this fallacy began is beyond me.  If your activity could be monitored just because you use wireless then satellite internet would not exist and Linksys would be out of business.  Many MAJOR corporations, banks and government entities use satellite internet on laptops for salesmen, traveling employees and others who work out of the office in the USA and overseas.  Do you think they would risk it if there were an actual problem?  Your Keystrokes are more likely be picked up by spyware, adware, viruses and worms which are prevalent on ALL internet connections.  If any MTSO had a problem in the past it is because their own site was not properly secure - it had nothing to do with the type of internet connection.  The MTSOs are denying employment to a lot of good MTs just because they live where DSL and cable are not available.  All based on what is, in my book, an OLD WIVE'S TALE. 
Fast busy signal

When trying to dial into the Lanier System, I continuously get a fast busy signal.   On Friday I had problems (dialing in and getting the dictator mode) and today all I get is a fast busy signal.  Any ideas??


Heck, yeah! Good pay for 1-1/2 years experience.

Think of WiFi as a cell phone signal.
Have you ever had a call dropped, or the signal go from 5 bars to 1?  WiFi speed depends on the amount of traffic, weather, interference from construction, etc.    I think it is always wise to have some form of backup available just in case.   I have Earthlink cable, but I also get 20 hours of dial-up with that.  I have a laptop, so if my power goes out at least I can download and continue to work with a dial-up connection. 
If you don't get your wireless through cell phone signal,
I haven't heard of any other way to get wireless broadband other than through the cell phone companies.
Yeah, but good times or bad, people still get sick, hurt
I do mainly pediatric oncology, orthopedics and GI, and it seems to be increasing, not slowing down.
Yeah, yeah, that should be "your work..."

Yeah, baby, yeah.
We are here for the long haul.
That is a good offer. Pay is not that good at UIMC. Good luck! nm

Any rose gardeners out there? Good roses that are disease proof and smell good?
I heard good things about Knockout Rose but they don't smell too much like traditional rose.  Supposedly blooms all season.

Agree with other poster.. good price..good service
I definitely think they are one of the best out there. We also have been talked through issues over the phone and also had a warranty in which they came out and fixed it right at our home. My only complaint..and I am sorry for saying this.. but... when you call their customer service 9 out of 10 times...you get someone who barely speaks English and I just hate that. I think that is true of a lot of customer support centers these days, ironically they are rarely American anymore. I am not prejudice at all. I just find it frustrating to call in for help and the help you get barely understands you and you do not understand them, thus making the experience very frustrating..
Expensive is right -- around $300 per credit hour! But they do have a good rep. Good luck! nm

I believe Pilates is good for shaping and strength, but you still need some cardio for good fat

Maybe try to find a good web site to refer to! Good luck NM

Good for you. Sounds very interesting and a good chance of pace - sm

but I live in the northeast and not much need for that where I live.  I also live in a small town so that limits my options.  I have spent the last couple of years as a substitute teacher to supplement my MT job and just completed 4-1/2 months as a long term sub which I enjoyed and was a change of pace from MT.  The only problem is as a sub or ed tech you only get paid during the school year so I would have to keep my MT job for summers and school vacations.  With the way things are going in the MT world I hate to rely solely on that.  I don't want to find myself without any job whatsoever.   


Thanks for all the responses.    


8 is NOT good if never going any higher - good to get the rust out in the short term though

Oh, yeah!

I understand where you're coming from.  The respect is just not there anymore.  Everyone in this business has heard for years about how voice recognition and EMRs are going to replace us all, which I just don't buy.  I work for a national on a difficult account with many ESLs, and it generates lots of work.  Every summer we have problems keeping up with turnaround but the management has yet to come up with a solution that actually works consistently.  I suspect it's a combination of MTs having kids home from school during the day now, vacations being taken, and people not working their schedules,  but most of all I think it's just plain burnout - we deserve to enjoy the summer too.  Last summer I worked so much to the point that I think I did substantial damage, and my body just cannot take it anymore (been at it for about 20 years, the last 10 years of it steady).  The powers that be fail to understand that we are not machines! 


Oh yeah
Or when you are trying to sleep and in your mind you are dictating to yourself..i.e., and the patient..yada, yada, yada, happens to me all the time, especially if I have had a long stressful-difficult dictation day, LOL..Of even if Im day dreaming, sometimes I find myself falling into dictation mode, repeating dictating I have transcribed, or close to it..Yeow!!

That makes complete sense (not).

Yeah, well--
That's why this country is going down the toilet.  Between the corporate greed and being overrun by the illegals, how long do you think it will last?  The CEOs now don't care-- they are too busy counting their money and buying those expensive cars, yachts, and their third and fourth homes, etc.  They have what I call the "Marie Antoinette" syndrome-- "Let them eat cake".  They have theirs-- so the h*** with the rest of us! 
yeah...
You are full of it. You aren't an MTSO. No place has a "crew" that is "all friendly and kind." They work at home, so how would you know what they are like? Even the rudest person can be nice for 2 minutes while talking on the phone to the boss.

Oh yeah!!
LOL - good going MQLover - like your style!
Yeah, you ask how old I am, but
the person who responded to me is the one who said it first. Of course, come down on the person who likes workings for MQ. How predictable. Go take a shower and maybe the water will make you grow a real thought.
yeah right, 60K w/MQ...

Yeah, please don't.

Yeah, I am.
I didn't say anything perverted. You are stuck on this molestor kick.
Yeah you.
I am not constipated and I know you aren't. I guess your laxatives worked to help you lose weight. Now, go cut your bangs in the morning.
Yeah, I'm 47...
and I STILL haven't developed those skills (that's why I'm an MT)!
