Wi-Fi is bad for me because the alternative is mobile data.
I live in Australia where the broadband speeds are 12.5 to 100Mbps.
I call it WLAN, since WiFi is a brand name.
We are not the same.
IEEE 802.11 enjoyers rise up
I too, enjoy plugging a USB-C to A adapter into my Android phone so I can use an ethernet to USB adapter. :P
More seriously, two of the hard requirements of my house was fiber connection available from the ISP to the house and wired ethernet to the major rooms.
Wired Ethernet to every room should be in the building code
Yeah, when we bought our home and the ISP guy was setting up the fiber line, he asked if I worked from home. I said yes and that I used one of the bedrooms as an office. He asked if I wanted to have the hole from the outside drilled into the room since some people who WFH had requirements to be on a wired connection. I personally didn’t have that requirement, and I also wanted my router as close to the modem as possible while being in the middle of the house. So it ended up being in the living room. It would’ve been convenient if there were built-in ports in all the rooms, even though wifi is fine for my home office.
I wonder how hard it would be to run a cable between the bedroom and the router
It’s not, and I never said it was hard. I just said it would’ve been convenient to have the cabling already in the walls, so I don’t have to bother running it along the wall and/or hiding it to keep it neat.
LABELED wired ethernet
But we’re already starting to reach Ethernet Caps couldn’t we just say networking < 1gbps so we don’t end up with a bunch of phone Jacks nobody wants?
Ethernet is good Internet to you because the alternative is WiFi.
Ethernet is bad Internet to me because the alternative is DWDM 800G per wavelength
We’re all the same.
Ethernet means good internet to you because the alternative is wifi.
Ethernet means bad Internet to me because the alternative is fiber.
We are not the same.
Fiber optic Ethernet…
Ethernet and fiber are not the same; they differ primarily in medium, speed, and distance capabilities. Ethernet typically uses copper cables to transmit electrical signals for short-range, local connections. Fiber uses glass strands to transmit light, offering much higher speeds, lower latency, and longer distances.
I wasted a gallon of water to have ai write that for you. Thanks
It was a waste because twisted pair copper and fiber are mediums. Fiber optical networking has Ethernet standards such as 100BASE-FX, 1000BASE-SX/LX, 10GBASE-SR, and 10GBASE-LR.
How are you supposed to surf the internet without an Ethernet cable to surf on? 🏄 or worse, no Dial-up jam to dance to
Talk to me when you get a station wagon plebs
You can get mobile wifi, which can be good internet.
huh? mobile hotspot is double-bad
