    Different poster here: WiFi sucks and my whole house is wired for gigabit Ethernet. I use USB as well for this reason.

        I get good speeds if I’m right next to the router too, but across the house where all my stuff is, I do not get good coverage. I am aware I can purchase things to fix that, but I’m not going to because everything is wired up and I prefer it that way.

          You’re in the extremely small minority (me too). My company has worked remote for twenty years and maybe 2% of users plug in wired ever. Programmers and Statisticians.

                You’re lying

                …that’s a way to shoot the entire conversation down. Regardless of that guy’s WiFi speeds, and the fact that range of the router and the size of their house is a thing, you do realise third world countries exist with shit internet right?

                  I didn’t even say my internet speed before that guy was like “U R LIE”

                  I have gigabit up and down hahaha. My router lives in a room near the entrance of my house that I only use to like… enter my house hahahaha

                I’m right next to my computer. I can plug something in by… reaching forward. What is this Reddit “let me fix a problem you don’t have” bullshit you’re spewing?

                I have 1Gb u/d and have no idea what my WiFi speeds are next to my router. Like I said, my house is an Ethernet house.
