The CK Daily – Getting Disconnected…not on purpose

Happy Thursday!

You ever had one of those weeks where you have to stop and think, “What day is it again?” I have seriously been off by one day all week. Yesterday was a blur to me…what could go wrong did go wrong but in the most random way.

I woke up yesterday morning earlier than normal and jumped right into work. My dog just looked at me with that look of “this is way too early to be up” look. So about 2 hours into my day and after two large cups of coffee (thank goodness!), my internet goes down. The TV was still working, but the internet was down. Then the internet came back up and the cable tv went down. I should have known at this point that it was not going to be a normal day. Then they both went down. Sigh…it has begun…

After about an hour of working off of the hotspot on my phone, they both came back up. Yes! My excitement was short-lived after about 30 mins…EVERYTHING went down. Yep, the power went out. Mind you, we had terrible storms Monday and Tuesday and not even a blip of power or internet going down. Then the sun starts coming out and the problems begin. I continued to work off of the hotspot on my phone and off my laptop battery as long as I possibly could. My phone battery got down to 15% and that was it. I had to disconnect. Normally I would have gone into the office to work but my “smart” garage was on lockdown mode. The hits just kept coming…

The good news…after 5 hours of being without power it was finally restored. I felt like I was connected to the world again! It is amazing the feeling we have these days in the world of being remote when we get disconnected from being able to work, communicate, or interact with the world around us. It is one thing to purposely disconnect and a whole other ball game when we need to connect and can’t. It was nice to be able to step back from distractions and work on strategy and whiteboarding ideas that would have otherwise, even if wasn’t planned. (Kinda like what Corey talked about in Monday’s email and putting the phone away.)

Hoping today is a smoother day and I stay connected all day to knock out some of the ideas I came up with yesterday. Hope your Thursday is a productive one as well!

We’ve almost made it to Friday!

Product Spotlights & Updates:

Today’s product spotlight brings you to a beast of a switch, the WS-C3850-48F-S. What makes this switch a beast of a switch? Let me give you the highlights because it’s a long list!

First of all this Switch comes with 48 Gigabit ports with PoE and PoE+ capability up to 800 watts. Looking to connect some access points and worried about getting a wireless access controller? Worry not, because this switch comes with a built-in wireless controller with up to 40 Gbps of capacity. The switch also comes with some flexibility with a slot for an optional network module (that supports either 1G or 10GB capabilities), and it can be stacked via StackWise-480 technology, and the StackPower technology allows you to share power within a stack. With 4 GB of RAM, 2GB of Flash as well as redundant fans this switch pretty much has everything you need.

Can we get a Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor grunt?
