It turned out there was something I could do. I could ask the other wireless ISP to set me up with a higher speed account. They agreed and arranged to install the antenna today.<\/p>\n
But this is Bhutan.<\/p>\n
Early today, as I sat in my office in town, I was told to expect a call when they were ready to start. When I eventually gave up waiting and called them again, I was told that the antenna was installed, but because there was no one home, they couldn’t connect it for me.<\/p>\n
The first question I have is ‘Did they get the right building?’ My landlord ‘Dr Pumpkin’ (so called because he’s a decorated doctor of traditional medicine and is shaped like a pumpkin) is well known, but still…<\/p>\n
