But my WiFi is just fine!

  • Why is this my top post? What joke am I missing? So confused.

    • The joke is that you have to spend $350+ on a router if you want a lot of bandwidth to spare for all your devices -- and more importantly -- a strong, reliable connection (especially if you live in an area with a lot of competing WiFi traffic, like an apartment building). Or you could just buy a $3 ethernet cable and get the same thing.

      Happened to me. The cheap $100 routers kept dropping the signal, so I blew $400 on a fancy gaming router with custom firmware support. Problem solved. That said, if it weren't for the fact that smartphones exist (and the fact that I have a girlfriend with a laptop), I wouldn't bother with WiFi at all. I miss the 2000s, when all you needed was a 10Mbps switch, and WiFi was something you only got if you wanted to brag to your friends that you can browse the internet in your backyard..
