Hi,

After a month I’m going to have a vacansion in Cuba. I have heard, that the country has shorage of electronics due to sanctions.

I have a few old, but working, wifi-routers (with openwrt, I think), which I do not use any longer. Is there any sense to bring them here and give to people, do they have such a need? Or this also electronic garbage, and just throw it away?

    A hard drive with torrented games, movies and music. I’ve heard connection to the world internet is really slow.

    I think owning a router musn’t be too hard to get there, the thing is not all can afford to pay wi fi or it’s blocked or something like that, my mom went there and generally you only get wifi at hotels and stuff like that, but I might be wrong, though.

      There are many wifi hotspots in the streets. Easy to find because lots of people sit there with phones and laptops. Its quite expensive though, when I was there about 5 years ago it was like 1 or 2 usd for 60 minutes. At least you could pause the internet usage, and use it over multiple days.
