Well, I finally got down for a little bit to my ataris only to find the Mac the bbs's were running on, screen was all corrupted. There were a few win updates that needed to be done so I tried to run those and poof. The windows went into the ether.
Tried to repair everything last night to no avail. So luckily I had synology drive running and maybe at most 6 hours of data was lost.
I needed to move the bbs's back to the old laptop for now. When I get some more time (and patience) I will drag out one of the old towers I have and work on getting the bbs's running on that. But in the meantime we are back to the old laptop.
Also pondering just putting win 7 back on that. That would probably resolve some of the laggy issues.
But they are back for now.
Just wanted all to know the boards didn't disappear.
Well it seems like something on my network is causing the issue. I am trying to narrow down to what device or cable is the culprit. I am down to about 10 or so devices/cables. Slowly working through it. The boards are up (they were not part of the issue) so things should be pretty stable now.
There may be the occasional hiccup when I do find the culprit but all should be good. If you notice anything in the boards let me know.
Just dropping a quick note here. We are having major internet issues here on the island. They are being worked on as fast as can. (Well as fast as the cable company is willing to work on it). I am hoping it gets resolved soon but I am not greatly optimistic.
So if you have problems with the boards it is most likely due to my internet not yours.
I will try to keep you updated.

It is back. It came back around 7:30 ish and luckily the alcatraz pc booted back up. My laptop battery was dead along with my ring alarm. Well that was getting ready to shut down right when it came back.
Enjoy!
Well unless I get the notice that my ring alarm is back on WiFi the BBs is gonna be down till much later tonight/wee hours of the morn.
Today 5/23/24 9:45 am est we are out of power. Had a pretty good storm blow through and knocked our power out. The electric company says to expect power by 5pm. Hopefully it will come on well before then. If not I am not sure the BBS’s will be up today. I can’t remember if I have the win box set to auto start after power outage or not. But if it doesn’t I won’t be back til later to fix it.
Just in case anyone wondered what happened to your favorite “Rock”.
Glad to hear! Seems like everything is having problems recently.
