Re: DNS better be flawless... Good luck talking grandma thorough pinging their gateway. It's hard enough getting them to type out an IP address. |

Actually, I was the only support person for a little mom-n-pop computer shop in KC for about a year. In-home work for grandmas, and on-site work for small businesses. Computer repairs/setups. Network repairs/setups.
I guarantee, if a grandma called in and said that her "internet is broke", I would spend 10 minutes just explaining to her how to bring up the command prompt. Start. Run. cmd. enter.
And if she COULD figure it out, what's the difference between telling her to go to 192.168.1.1 or fc00:1::1/64?
It's all gibberish to her anyways.
