I recently moved into an apartment in Savannah. Because of the myriad wireless devices I own, I had to have wireless Internet. To that end, I purchased a Cisco Linksys E1000 wireless router. It comes with software that I installed, against my better judgment.

It automatically found and setup my wireless connection for me in more time than it would have taken me to do it myself, but that’s not what bothered me.

The fact that the Cisco Connect software takes such an amazingly long time to connect to the router didn’t bother me either.

The fact that it failed to connect to the Internet didn’t bother me either.

What bothered me is that last line there.

4. Open a web page. If you still can’t connect, click Need Help? below.

Great, I thought. I’ll click that and it’ll tell what to do.

Yes. That’s right. It’s a link to a website that presumably tells you what to do if you can’t connect to the Internet. Fucking brilliant.
