'The wind keeps blowing my wifi signal away ' is more than enough information to diagnose the problem, and 'the computer forgot my password' is now a real thing since password managers started coming baked into browsers.
We are so far beyond parody of ourselves that i have no idea how the onion stays in business.
Yeah, the bank that manages my mortgage has mandatory text message 2fa if you're on a new computer. And something about Firefox keeps it from remembering my machine, so I have to do the text message 2fa everytime.
Right now it's working fine, but they had a period of a few months where the text messages would take 10-15min to send after you tried to log in, and the log in attempt would expire after 5 min, making it impossible to log in. All of which could be avoided if they would let me use a 2fa app.
I’ve configured 2FA with my bank using verification codes (can’t think of the proper name, it’s that Authy-/Google-style 2FA c. 2010) but then never utilizes it — it pretends that’s not set up and requests the SMS code. 🫠
