How's your thinnet holding up under your loads?
I wired the computers in the house for 10base2 25? years ago, from
basement to attic. Of course it's been upgraded to gigbit CAT6 since then.
Reliability and, importantly, also security is a big reason I prefer wired
networks where possible.
Now if I could only get a phone with an ethernet jack. Sometimes my
phone's network operation goes strange, making me wonder if someone isn't
trying one of the wifi network attacks on me. Maybe I shouldn't name my
wifi SSID "RCMP surveillance van" or "CSEC Mobile 22A, etc.?
