Wifi is horrible and I always get terrible speeds with it. I have a Netgear WNDR4500 and a brand new Macbook Pro and I get speeds of like 1MB/s max and constant dropped packets and it is lovely. When I connect with ethernet everything is super fast though, 20MB/s easy. 2.4GHz, 5GHz, close, far, it is always bad. I also live in the jungle so I see zero other APs besides mine. Why is wifi so horrible?

dark matter detectors have to refine copper and steel on site in the detector mine vaults so that it doesn’t get activated by cosmic rays or have trace radioactive isotopes within it.

pagancow posted:pull all your devices off wireless and attach wires to them My lab actually fought really hard to stop the installation of Wifi routers around the physics building because we could see it leaking into our instruments. The university laughed and pointed at all the 20 year olds on their cell phones who pay $25k/yr and put them up anyway.
