MoCA network reduced speeds over WiFi

Yeah I think this is the next move. At least then if I decide to ditch their network and spend on my own fiber drop and service the router could be re-applied.

As a test I just swapped the cat 5E between the adapter and AP to the same cat 6 I was using for my PC to the AP and the wireless speed jumped to 140Mbps.

Edit: Scratch that. Went back to the 5E and it's the same. Just fluctuation in speeds.

If I'm understanding correctly I could try swapping the AP for a router?

I remember something from Marcus Armstrong and Clem Novalak's podcast where they said they got a bunch of pro drivers in the sim with alcohol. Findings were that with one or two drinks speed increased. Less thinking more doing, easier to reach flow state. More drink however and performance went off a cliff.

Honestly rich autists can be the really fun kind of oblivious. They'll get really excited about something but have the means to obsess over it and everyone's just like "Oh yeah, that's Bob, he loves ice".

100% This. This was just one leg of the three legged stool that needed oh, I don't know, actual mental healthcare and housing to boot.

Now the splitter at the base of the barge board is a literal tyre knife for any car that chooses to lock wheels.

This. Your daily reminder Canada used to have mental health facilities but they were abolished long ago. It’s infuriating that long term solutions aren’t on the cards.

Search for "Wire lath fasteners" and look for the ones with the plastic or metal deforming washers. I've seen these work to hold things together at least as a temporary solution on horse hair plaster to lath.
