Pagers don’t “connect” to networks.

  What do they do, then? Are you implying that connections can only exist as a two way relationship? Are rivers not connected to streams, tributaries, etc? Receiving data from a network is a connection, no matter how you want to define it.

    Yes, I am definitely implying that a connection only exists in a two way relationship. Don't be obtuse.

      Don’t be vague then. What do pagers do, if not connect?

  The towers resend the message for a while so that they get through - some guy might be in a plane on approach to Beirut right now his pager coming into range as they land ....
