Had to reread a second time with one of the other voices in my head.ã You have bluetooth wireless AND you have ethernet. I prefer a wiredãconnection myself, all my PCs are 1000BaseT ethernet as well. Well, except forãmy C128, THAT is on a WiFi modem....ãããã... Years ago I was young and stupid.

Well,ã We> except for my C128, THAT is on a WiFi modem....ããI've posted before about this - I limped along for a bunch of years onãpowerline adapters. The connection from my router to the BBS got closeãto 150 mbps, but my office only got around 30 mbps.ããAbout a year ago, I paid to have a couple of CAT6 runs put in between myãbedroom and home office, and ditched wifi for my workflows. I'll neverãgo back.ããI remember wiring offices where we had 4 Cat5 connectors and 2 voiceãconnectors at 100+ locations - my last office had 4-5 ethernet drops andã*everything* was wifi.ãããã...

The cable modem and the BBS were on oneãbox, and powerline was good for around 200 mbps on a speedtest. Myãoffice was on the second box, and I was lucky if I got 30-40. Lots ofãinterference, too - when I put up Christmas lights, my throughput wouldãdrop.ããThe other benefit to running ethernet was being able to set up an AP onãthe office end to act as a 4-port switch and a wireless repeater.ãããã...

I didn't missãwired ethernet much, I had a wired port for imaging PCs and that was it.ãããã...
