We're nearing the end of the year that Facebook became Meta. That's their way of promoting the metaverse, an even more all-consuming version of the internet. It's also been a full year of online shopping for some as people avoid crowded stores. Now, it's hard to say how much more of our lives will move online, but Pamela Paul argues it's gone pretty far already. She's the editor of The New York Times Book Review, and she spoke recently with Steve Inskeep about her book "100 Things We've Lost To The Internet."

PAMELA PAUL: I was walking down the street - 40th Street - heading into my office at The New York Times, and I was thinking, of course, about a million things. And I was obviously texting while walking, which is really dangerous and I don't advise it and I do it anyway. And at that moment, I got a notification on my phone that said, you have a new memory, which is a really weird sentence. Like, what does that mean? And what it was delivering, from somewhere within the bowels of the iPhone, was a series of photos from four years ago taken in Sydney, Australia, from a visit to the Sydney Zoo. Why then? I don't know. Like, what - was it an algorithm that said, she needs to see this? But suddenly, mentally now, I'm thinking about four years ago, that afternoon at the Sydney, you know, literary festival where I took a few hours off and went to see the koalas. And it's just weird because I'm on 40th Street - right? - and I should be in the here and now, and yet I'm in 16 different places, emotionally and mentally.

My friend Peter Sagal, who's a runner, wrote a book about running - says that he has stopped listening to things, stopped having earbuds in while he's running, because while he's running is the only time in his entire day, in his entire life, when he does not have a constant stream of inputs.

PAUL: Absolutely. The first thing in the book - the first thing that we lost is boredom. And that's where this book began, with an op ed that I wrote for The Times, because we never stop having information and, like, little bits of emotional stimuli enter our sort of brain space. And in order to either be in the moment completely mindlessly or to generate that thing we call output - like, to have an original idea or to do something creative or just to have suddenly something sort of strike you, quote-unquote, "out of nowhere" - you have to stop all that input. And yet, because we have this phone/portable internet on us at all times, we never have those moments anymore, right? And we're all guilty of it, me included.

PAUL: Because they got lost really when libraries became computerized. And again, there's a lot to be said for what the internet has brought to the library. You can now go online and reserve a book and get a notification when the book is in. Having access to e-books, if that's the way you like to read - that's also a great thing. But what has happened is that when you lose the card catalog - which is something that I, being a very kind of word-bound, book-centric kid, I liked to really explore those and sort of discover what was in the library - you lose some of the serendipity - right? - of discovering things on your own.

INSKEEP: I feel like there's a common theme here that you're not just missing things that you miss. I feel that you are arguing that even though, in many ways, we are better informed than ever before and can be smarter than ever before, we're not thinking the same way and we're not thinking as well.

PAUL: I do think that we've lost the ability to think clearly because we're constantly, you know, overwhelmed. I think that human beings have not psychologically or physically adjusted to the speed and the size of the internet. It's like we're constantly in fast-forward and we're experiencing a sort of daily sense of whiplash. It's why it's so hard to fall asleep at night because it feels like you have a hundred sort of loose threads.

To troubleshoot, I have called my internet service provider (Spectrum) . They have checked at their end and also put a device check on my incoming internet line. Spectrum is saying everything is ok at their end.

I am trying to figure out what the cause of internet outage could be. Does anyone have any ideas about troubleshooting this problem? Where are the logs kept for the ST wifi hub or Plume? I tried to contact Plume support but they are saying that the support is through Samsung SmartThings because they are the ones using Plume and that I am not a direct customer.

You can, of course, splash the cash and consider mobile broadband failover to avoid the loss of internet on the first place, or one of the dedicated reset switches expressly designed for the job in hand.

I'm considering switching to Aruba APs but I read in multiple places comments that the Instant On APs require internet access and if that's interrupted for any reason they will reboot loop or otherwise be troublesome until the internet returns. Is this correct and is there any way to defeat that behavior if true? I have clients with flaky internet and adding flaky wifi to that would be a non-starter for sure. Thanks!

Restart your modem and wireless router. This helps create a new connection to your internet service provider (ISP). When you do this, everyone that is connected to your Wi-Fi network will be temporarily disconnected. The steps you take to restart your modem and router can vary, but here are the general steps.

If the results of the ping test indicate that you are not getting a reply from the router, try connecting your PC directly to your modem by using an Ethernet cable (if you can). If you can connect to the internet using an Ethernet cable, it confirms the connection problem is due to the Wi-Fi router. Make sure you've installed the latest firmware and see the documentation for your router.

If you lost your network connection immediately after upgrading to or updating Windows 11, it's possible that the current driver for your network adapter was designed for a previous version of Windows. To check, try temporarily uninstalling the recent Windows Update:

This can help solve connection problems you might have after upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11. It can also help to fix the problem where you can connect to the internet, but can't connect to shared network drives. Network reset removes any network adapters you have installed and the settings for them. After your PC restarts, any network adapters are reinstalled, and the settings for them are set to the defaults.

The Network Troubleshooter (mentioned above) can help diagnose and fix common connection problems. After using that, try running the network commands below because the combination of doing these two things can help you get connected.

If you've lost your Netflix connection halfway through a show, check to see if other streaming services are still accessible and working. If so, the problem likely lies with Netflix and not your internet connection. If you're having an issue connecting to other streaming services, it could be that the smart TV or streaming device is to blame. Try streaming on another device, if possible, to verify that an internet outage is the culprit.

When your home internet connection goes out, it's most likely due to a hiccup with your modem and/or router. The solution is often simple: Restart your equipment by unplugging it, waiting 10 seconds or so, plugging it back in and allowing it to reboot. More often than not, this will resolve your outage.

When restarting your router, I'd recommend cutting power by unplugging it instead of pressing or holding any buttons on the device itself. Doing so can prompt the device to do a hard reset, returning it to factory settings and erasing your Wi-Fi network settings. Granted, the reset will likely re-establish your internet connection, but you'll also have the extra task of setting up your Wi-Fi again.

Constant buffering, excessive lagging, Wi-Fi "dead zones," and other connectivity issues could result from insufficient speed, bandwidth or Wi-Fi coverage to handle all your devices. There are two ways to remedy the situation: Scale back your internet expectations and use or make some upgrades.

Consider the internet speeds you need and determine if your current plan can deliver those speeds. If your plan lacks the speeds you need, upgrading to a faster plan (assuming one is available) will be your best option. Many cable and fiber internet providers offer speeds up to 1 gigabit per second or higher, which is plenty of speed for the average home.

A less likely but still possible cause of an internet outage is a compromised network. If hackers gain access to your Wi-Fi network, they could completely restrict your internet access to any or all devices. ff782bc1db
