re: onHub

quote:

Power users, on the other hand, wont be as satisfied with the OnHub for their own use. Its a strong performer, and it has some innovative featuresincluding that TPM module to foil hackersbut its feature set is much too limited: The OnHub wont let you share storage or a printer over your network; it doesnt have DLNA, ftp, or VPN servers; and it has just one LAN port.

i'm not even a power user when it comes to home networking, but even the  Airport Extreme/Time Capsule has network attached storage and VPN services, and a proper 4 LAN ports.

maybe Samsung should have anticipated that their poor and cheap shitlord users would use dollar bin cables since they probably had to apply for a payday loan in order to afford their 900$ exploding phone

fyi the charger that came with the 6p is also out of spec and will provide full power to anything plugged into it so if you got your chargers from google they are guaranteed bad

their cables are fine tho
