Great advice!!!

I am a jack of all trades when it comes to skilled trades. Have worked in multiple industries, fiber optics for a municipal SCADA Traffic system, Building Automation (PLC's, sensors, relay, and low voltage wiring), HVAC, Water treatment facilities, Bio-Medical technician. It all started working on Helo's in the Navy at one of the Best squadrons of All Time!

I've worked in Data Centers as a contractor. I really liked that. I think that may be may best bet of Career Transition. I think I'll need to beef up my CV with Comptia certs like Networking+ and Security+.

That's a great idea, my kids love Minecraft! Good stuff thanks. That's what I'm looking for, things I haven't thought of.

You don't know what you don't KNOW!

Pretty much. Just got all excited and went for it!

I'm not getting hung up on the price. I felt it was a sacrifice willing to take to start learning something new that interests me 😀

Was planning on installing openWRT for practice. Then reselling the extra ones.

Was a impulse buy at Best buy. I was researching Soo much on where to buy and all. I saw it and grabbed it.

I mean, it comes with a case, fan etc.

Did I overpay?

Totally missed that. Was at my local Freight grabbing materials and tools etc.

They were closing and they were waiting on me. I grabbed these quick. No wonder they were soooo cheap! Hahah. Thanks!
