No, why would you do that? Use completely hackable Wi-Fi or Bluetooth instead So that, encrypted or not, everyone can record your fricking traffic.
You're a fricking zoomer for sure.

Just because it is not hackable now doesn't mean it won't be hackable and two months from now. Your stupidity and lack of imagination hurts my brain, zoomer
[...]
so do you also plug your phone into ethernet? or are you letting that get hacked?
Different type of data, different type of privacy. And also, I do something completely different with my phone. Something you won't understand. So why bother?

>wpa wifi is not hackable
wpa2 finished with vulnerabilities in common wifi firmware. wpa3 started with a bunch of vulnerabilities. is it all fixed now? does anyone care? or do we cower hoping that we're all too boring for the nsa or equivalent to do anything to our networks?

Wifi will never be able to achieve the stability of a wired connection. It will always be a shitty unreliable method of connecting to the internet. You can't break the laws of physics.
since i moved 18 months ago and got fiber i have not had a single issue with my ATT router connecting wirelessly to anything

Wireless cannot beat the latency of Ethernet. Wireless should only be used if the device does not support ethernet.(IOT devices/phones).

having to resend lost packets is going to increase your latency

Now consider if you have outdoor cameras that can barely get a good wifi signal. There are many other use cases aside from testing latency while sitting right next to your router.
you can do ethernet over coax. the adapters are expensive but they can do 2.5 gig so it's pretty good if your cables aren't too old or chewed up.
i wonder if there are hdmi to coax adapters, ideally with cec support. it'd be pretty cool if i could wire up every tv to every device in the house.
I have to plug my router into this at my apartment. Only place that's actually wired for a signal. I want 5G wireless internet but it is unavailable in my area. My phone does 200 mbps speed tests on the 5G cell network.
>Why not use hackable wifi thats finikey as frick and doesn't work half the time instead of a simple eternity cord?
You're fricking stupid, I'm a zoomer and even I use the ethernet
My house has this, the fricking moronic electricians/builders didn't terminate the ends going into the router but I just crimped it myself and it werked out. Gigabit in every room is nice with my pc and ps5. I don't use the coax jack because it is 1984 + 40 but thats ok tbh
I bought a house, every single room, and I mean, every single room was wired for phone lines.... using CAT5. not cat3, not cat5e, catfricking5. fricking boomers
i ran new cat6 lines in a few places.
pain in my fuking ass
When it works it works really well though but when you know fiber could be available it just sucks
Offering and actually delivering 1000/100 on 24x8 256QAM is quite something
Americans cannot manage triple digit upload speeds with OFDM
Ran a cat5e cable from my basement router to my living room. Ran another to my office. Didn't bother with any jacks or wall plates. Just drilled a hole in the floor and fished the cable down. There's a small 5 port switch in the living room that connects everything and its all hidden and tidy behind the tv stand. The office just has the single computer so meh just a single cable was all that was needed. Servers are kept in the basement. I can always add plate,etc later if I want. Be flush to the floor and not the wall but oh well.
like most examples of tech, you only need a wired connection to either do very important things or totally pointless ones. the vast majority of people do only the latter which is why the enthusiast computing space is largely about gaming
moronic zoomer
i just turned 30
You obviously took the wrong drugs or the wrong amount throughout your life
I wish my house had more of these
>network cable bad
What a fricking moron
>yeah im kind of a power user i need 200mb/s instead of 150mb/s lmao
yes

does your pc not use electricity?
I need 10000Mb/s, actually.
>200mb
my ethernet is running at 2.5GB. are you stuck in the 1990s or just "special"?
802.3ab (gigabit over copper) is from 1999
old != bad dumbass

My statement stands, kid.

my cameras use POE directly to my computer
>yall
you lose
except it’s very possible for the throughput of a wap to be greater than the coax. on different networks of course.
my computer doesn't have a wifi card, homosexual

this disingenuous homosexual wants me to believe he doesnt have wifi at all
I like having a stable connection for playing gaymes.
Poorgay Cope: The Post
Maybe Anon just was referring to using coaxial cables?
They're still used though, which is why things still have them.
why do you hate rj-45 and rg6 wall ports?
you can do ethernet over coax. the adapters are expensive but they can do 2.5 gig so it's pretty good if your cables aren't too old or chewed up.
i wonder if there are hdmi to coax adapters, ideally with cec support. it'd be pretty cool if i could wire up every tv to every device in the house.
Original Ethernet is over coax.
Using that in a ring configuration during LAN parties had something special.
>Anon you can't leave until the party is over or you'll break the ring!
the people who made that device gotta be really smart!!
I have to plug my router into this at my apartment. Only place that's actually wired for a signal. I want 5G wireless internet but it is unavailable in my area. My phone does 200 mbps speed tests on the 5G cell network.
wait why the frick would you want shitty 5g when you have a WIRED connection. Holy shit zoomers are beyond stupid.
>Why not use hackable wifi thats finikey as frick and doesn't work half the time instead of a simple eternity cord?
You're fricking stupid, I'm a zoomer and even I use the ethernet
so do you also plug your phone into ethernet? or are you letting that get hacked?
I would if I could
why are boomers so jaded?
My house has this, the fricking moronic electricians/builders didn't terminate the ends going into the router but I just crimped it myself and it werked out. Gigabit in every room is nice with my pc and ps5. I don't use the coax jack because it is 1984 + 40 but thats ok tbh
Yeah. I got these in every room. They are much better. Also CAT7 which i will need to replace in 20 years maybe
>he fell for the cat7 meme
Explain?
its better to just run fiber
I bought a house, every single room, and I mean, every single room was wired for phone lines.... using CAT5. not cat3, not cat5e, catfricking5. fricking boomers
i ran new cat6 lines in a few places.
pain in my fuking ass
So was mine but I was able pull out the old cables while pulling behind CAT7
No, I don't use american blanking plates or F-connectors for non-satellite antenna.
I agree. Just rewired all my shit with duplex LC connectors.
>that
>old
If you were actually old your coax jack wouldn't even have a cat keystone above it.
Wifi is half duplex shares bandwidth with all the devices on your network and less than 1/10th the total bandwidth of my 10gbps ethernet.
how else am I gonna get wired internet?
U mean coax? Yes
You mean RJ 45 (may also be the smaller one though)? No
Coax is goated and can do everything
I literally quit my job because they assigned me to a Coax Docsis network. Frick this gay legacy technology
CMTS got your nuts?
I don't have a damn choice

Worst two things I have ever tasted. Thanks my dear ISP (Internetless Slop Provider) and frick right off.
They really sent this to everyone.
coaxial > iptv
old copper wire phone > ip phone
I wish I could still find a POTS provider.

isnt this what fiber uses anyway?
idk my modem goes in the wall and it does the thing
