Advice Nr.1

Hey everyone,

there are only five days left and I am looking forward to see my family in Berlin. I will try to give you some information about Dublin, that could be useful for the „AFIB-successor“ next year.

Get a „leapcard“!
Taking the Dublin bus will be very expensive for you if you do not own one. Besides you will need coins to buy a busticket. They will not take any kind of banknotes and you do not get any change!
The Dublin bus system is not completed nowadays. There are a few zones in the city which affect the price of a regular bus ticket (per direction). In the end you will mostly pay 2,35€ except you only drive one or two stations…and you will notice that this will be very expensive if you need the bus to reach your workplace.

leapcard.

You can buy a leadcard in most of the „Spar“ shops for 5€. After that you can top off your leap card with a random amount of money. If you take the bus and pay with your leapcard you will mostly pay 1,95€ to reach your destination (per direction). After your internship you can give your „leapcard“ back to a shop. After that you will get back your 5€…or you keep it as a souvenir 😉

First deal in the second week, already

Hello everyone,

the first week of work is nearly over and I have done a lot of research. These last couple of days I worked on the PXE server. Unfortunately i could not finish the work on it, because the installation required a DHCP setting with static IP-addresses. I am not familiar with the setting and did not want to cause any errors in the network.To be on the safe side, I decided to search online for important information and spoke with my boss about the network settings. We will try and solve the problem next week.

Besides I sorted a lot of hardware that will be sold in the next days and weeks and run a few Windows 7 installations.

Today I had a meeting with a stock holder. He wants to work on small PC with the option to connect eight monitors on it. Furthermore it should be a very small PC, because he wants to travell with it.

In the evening I will go to the „Karma Stone Bar“ with Angelo, Toni and my housemate. The son of my „host-dad“ works there and he invited us. Rayn said, that they have some famous international beer like „Becks“ or „Heineken“. After that, he will drive us home. It is very obliging, because after midnight the buses drive only to the city centre.

Sláinte!

Dublin Bus

For me it looks like the best way to get where you want is the Dublin bus. Taking the bus in Dublin is very expensive but fast. When i take the bus to the language and back I’ll pay 5,20€, 2,60€ each. But its getting really expensive if you have to change the busses because you have to pay for each access. So keep in mind the best route to your location is the one with the least changeovers.
