Sometimes I am an idiot… Well, really, you do not all need to agree with me there. But sometimes I am. I admit this freely. And you will see why in a minute.
I have just been doing some mods to the code in my tracker. The reason for the mods are not import – the main thing is that I was making some changes, and trying to get them to work. Well, I had a few issues – and probably wasted about 30 minutes on one particular problem. This was something that I solved pretty quickly once I realised.
I had changed the code to set the Access Point on the GPRS network. And I had it set up for Telstra, and I was using an Optus SIM card. This was a stupid mistake to make, but it is one that I will make again, I am sure of that. Unfortunately.
I was looking a bit earlier at a tracking unit and the thing did not line up with a map. I was getting rather concerned. Things were looking really really stupid. Then I remembered – about a year back a client pointed out that one small map was out… It has taken a year for someone to go back to this small area to find the same problem.
