Mumbai broadband

Mumbai broadband isnt very good is it?
It's sort of weird and unpredictable.....


Ok, let's face it. Mumbai broadband sucks big time :/
It'll start off obediently, opening up my mail and orkut account impressively fast. Im not stupid (no, really :|), and i always know that this speed isn't going to last very long.
Sure enough, in 5 minutes, it says 'Local Area Connection not connected'.
I curse under my breath and repair the damn connection.
It comes back to life and leaps around doing my bidding.
For another 5 minutes.
After which it bids me goodbye again.
I curse again and repair the cursed thing not once but three times and give the modem a scary glare as if saying, 'One more time, and you're fired'. (as if :/)
Ill be chatting away on messenger and my friend will be typing away the most interesting part of the conversation and the damn thing goes still.
I growl and switch off and on the modem and wait with my arms crossed while it re-connects. Then follows a minute or two of apologizing to the friends who had been wondering if ive fallen asleep or something (because the damn messenger will continue to show me online!!).
Ill be typing away furiously for a whole minute and when i look up at the screen nothing would have got typed at all. Why?
Because 'Local Area Connection not connected' you see.
I curse aloud, switch off and on the modem several times as though exercising my fingers talking to the modem saying, 'This is how ill ill-treat you if you disobey me you slab of dog poop'. So saying ill sit back, nostrils flaring and temper high. The lights start blinking feebly in the modem and it takes about 2 decades for it to re-connect. So i switch off and on the main JUST after it says,'Local Area connected'. :/
After which i take to a game or two of Solitaire and then go to bed :|

P.S. As i am typing this i see the damn network has got cut. Thankfully, we can type even when the internet commits suicide :D )
