That sucks. Hopefully you can figure out a workaround. Is it possible to fill out the form(s) and then check to see if the internet connection is working well by loading another page before submitting the form?
ah, no, what usually happens is that the page gets hung up and doesn’t load all the way and that’s my first clue that the network connection reset at some point. so, sort of unavoidable.

Date: 2020-04-05 10:34 am (UTC)When I'm doing a more complicated post, I make sure to copy/paste to notepad. Yeah, I'll still have to dink with putting pics in again, but at least all the text is saved (and is usually a good hint as to what pic goes where).
It's tedious, but. *shrug* Alternatively (or combined with), I just save every time I get a single pic uploaded. Save as draft. Then edit the draft. Over and over again. Tedious, but ultimately less frustrating than doing all the work and losing it.

Date: 2020-04-06 12:15 am (UTC)Since you're in a home, is there any way to get a wired connection? (which doesn't actually help me because for me it's a vpn issue. and those still happen on wired connections. But if your problem is with the wifi...)
