Need computer tech for house call in Denver - The Orange Mane

Armchair Bronco · 01-10-2012, 07:24 PM

My mom (who is in her 70's) messed up her internet connection @ home and needs a computer tech to stop by the house to fix things up. She lives in Denver near Hampden & Monaco.

Can anyone recommend a good Denver-based tech who makes house calls? The last bum she had stop by was some guy whose name she randomly pulled from the phone book; this jackass ended up charging 3+ hours on a job that I could have done in 30 minutes.

It's your typical cable modem + wireless router + wireless signal booster + PC laptop & iPad 2 internet connection job. I tried helping her on the phone, but it was hopeless.

BTW: I tried working with GeekSquad.com (and Best Buy). They have a $89.99 deal that includes a house visit by a tech plus setup for up to 3 devices + printers. However, they can't get anyone out for *AT LEAST* a week, so that's not going to work.

Dude, it's the internet so I understand if you say no, but if you can't find someone cheap let me know. I am sure I can head down and sort it out, for no charge.
