Does anyone know the secret of connecting a laptop to Auckland Libraries' WIFI? My Android devices are fine but my Lubuntu laptop just won't. It connects, I get a DHCP address, but it doesn't register with Tomizone so all requests are blocked. I can't get it to go to the Tomizone portal so I can't do anything. Last time I tried it I sent a support request to Tomizone and got zero response. I just sent another one.
It worked about a year ago if I fiddled with the DNS settings, but not any more.
Maybe someone knows the current trick?

A thoroughly enjoyable read. A thoughtful and thought-provoking story, told well and draws one in as the pace gathers. I haven't read Matt Haig's work before but will certainly try others he has written.

New walk/drive listen. Killing Jericho by William Hussey. It's a great story. Add to your tbr lists. #aucklandlibraries #BorrowBox @williamhussey
Surprised to see that #AucklandLibraries hasn't got any of books by #NickHager or #ColinJames

Incidentally, the Act which sent me down this rabbit hole was data 10 January 1842, and came into effect March 1842, so the reference to the County of Eden in the pro forma for a deed in this Act also pre-dated the official proclamation of Eden County!

I'm apparently not the first to wonder about Eden County. The "Manukau's Journey" site at Auckland Libraries cites an article "The Vanished County of Eden", published in 1971 by Dr GT Bloomfield of the University of Guelph. I will be getting a copy next time I go into the library.
