Every time power goes out, user gets disconnected from VPN unexpectedly Posted: 11 Jul 2021 04:02 AM PDT User called and says: i keep getting disconnected from VPN when i lose power. My power at my apartment keeps going out. My power is on now and im connected. Me: (confuesed) Okay. So whats the issue? User: Its wierd. So every time my power to my apartment goes out, i get disconnected from VPN. But its working fine now. Me: (still not fully understanding the issue) because the power keeps going out, the router keeps going down. User: i didnt think i needed wifi. I was told that i would be able to connect to work from anywhere in the world using VPN. Me: (finally understanding the issue. this mans lack of knowledge) Ah well as long as you are connected to wifi. You can connect from anywhere in the world meaning - if youre traveling, you can connect to work using VPN from a hotel, airport, starbucks, etc. but you still need a widi connection. User: Okay. (Hangs up) I thought being connected to a network was just common sense at this point, espcially for work (using applications/websites user's familiar with by now) Sorry if its lame, but these convos kinda amuse me. I always seem to overestimate peoples knowledge. [link] [comments] |
