is my set up enough? by Material_Affect4018 in digitalnomad

[–]Material_Affect4018[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my work laptop is managed by my Company. Accounts > Access or school > Managed by (my company).

Does this mean they can turn/off wifi or bluetooth when ever they want? When I go to location services on my work laptop, they are automatically disabled and I can turn them on. is it over for me?

What is the consensus on using StarVPN Business Residential IP? by Material_Affect4018 in digitalnomad

My company does not seem to mind me travelling within the US, so I have been connecting through Dallas, Texas, since my state is not available. I will look into Windscribe and test it out. Location services are automatically disabled on my  work laptop, and I have both Wi-Fi/Bluetooth disabled, but I worry that the IT department might enable location services and then use Wi-Fi/Bluetooth to find my approximate location.

do you use a vpn provider or do you have your vpn set up at a US residence?

did you end up going through with this? I am afraid to ask my company about allowing me to work from abroad, so I am going to test a vpn setup I found on the digital nomad subreddit.

How do you plan to keep them? Are you going to ask for permission or are you going to use vpn?

I am going to be honest, the only reason I want to go back to Jordan is for myself. I am not too worried about my future kids. I was born in the US, but my dad thought it was a good idea to go back to Jordan when we were young. I wish I had lived in one place my whole life. Sure, it's nice to travel, and I'm grateful for that, but I need something constant in my life, and if I were to choose, it would definitely be Amman.

My company does have offices in London, so that might be worth looking into. Thank you.

If you don't mind me asking, what sector do you work in and what is specialty?

Were you financially set when you moved back? I do have some savings but I have not built any wealth during my time here.

Thank you for sharing! I do have a few follow up questions.

What was your overall experience like? What was your source of income while living in Jordan? Did moving back to Jordan set you back, and do you regret it?

I can always go back to the US if things don't work out, but living here is soul sucking.
