Do it yourself.....

Do it yourself.....
If you didn't notice my posts the past couple of days it is because my internet went out. It does this once or twice a year. But the good thing is since that one time my neighbor showed me how to fix it, I did the same thing just now.

It cuts out because of humidity and moisture and corrodes the tiny metal connections in the phone jack box. The good thing is all you have to do is remove the box put a new one in and simply strip the red and green wires to where they match up to the inside of a new phone jack box. 

But this time I bought extras so that when it happens again I can simply do the same thing without going to the store. It really is no different with a car battery. If the studs on the battery are corroded and your cables are corroded you wont get good metal to metal contact. 

So I am back up and kicking again.
