Maybe this is too nerdy for this group. I got an OpenWRT ONE router, replaced the old TP-Link one I had. The bad press got to me. The new one is fast, I could not believe how much faster things like downloading files is now.

The worst part was that I had picked out a complicated password with lots of punctuation, and typing that on phones and on-screen keyboards for TVs and game consoles was painful.

Also I pinged Google, and got an IPv6 response for the first time.

    Sounds like a good day to me. How do you like it?

      Excellent so far. It took me a while to set up, I had to start over from scratch once. They claim it is “brick proof” and I can bear witness. Performance, as I said, is excellent.
