The museum was very busy today. Most of Wall Township is still experiencing a power outage from Monday night's storm, so I posted on the town Facebook page, "InfoAge is open. We have air conditioning and power. Come visit!" ... it seemed to work. :) About 30 people visited today. Mike R. stopped by too. He picked up some items Tony left for him. The power outage had a minor impact on VCF: 1. Everything came right back up when IA's main power was restored yesterday -- except for our info kiosk and our hotspot. I rebooted those manually. After that I was able to access our intranet (kiosk and admin pages), but I wasn't able to get onto the Internet with either a wired or wireless connection. I know the problem wasn't our access point, because the wired connection didn't worth either, and I knew it wasn't the switch, because as I said intranet access worked. That left only the firewall, so I rebooted it and then we were in business. The firewall is PFsense. Does anyone know why I had to restart it, rather than it automatically working after the hotspot was back on? 2. Part of a large tree came down outside of our building. It didn't hit the building, but it was scary-close! IA said the town public works dept. will come take care of it in a few days. I put cones around the area so nobody walks under it.
