    My current home, the landlord doesn’t have a cable and I’m separate from the house. I’ve been using a wifi router to pick up the signal and then I just connect my devices to that router. It works as an access point basically.

    I’m using the GL.inet Flint and it’s been solid for several years. It runs openWRT. Just make sure the router has the ability to repeat. A lot of wifi routers are one way only.













  • Unfortunately all my recent experiences with Linux have been abysmal.

    My computer just refuses to cooperate with any Linux distro and DE. I have tried them all.

    The one program I used the most (Discord) runs like absolute trash.

    Wayland is still extremely buggy and unusable. It crashes constantly.

    I really wish I could switch full time but Linux just is t there yet, and in some ways feels it has regressed in recent years.

    I’m a Linux enthusiast and have used it in some capacity since 1996 with my first foray using Slackware.

    I desperately want to use Linux as a daily driver but for my entire work flow, it fails at every metric. I’m disgusted that I have to continue using Windows.
