Vent: A client in Bali told me my WiFi setup was amateur hour and I was mad until I realized she was right
She showed me how to run a wired backup through the AC vent instead of relying on a hotspot, and now my connection actually handles Zoom without dropping out at 3 PM every day; has anyone else had to completely redo their remote work setup based on criticism from a stranger?

my friend had a random hotel guy show her how to tape her router to a window, total game changer.

wait so the advice is just "stick your router to a window"? like the hotel guy is basically telling her to turn her router into a weird wall decal?
I guess it sorta makes sense if the wifi signal is bad inside the room but still feels like something you'd see in a low budget spy movie.
pretty wild that a random hotel employee is dropping lifehacks like that, maybe he's secretly a network engineer moonlighting as a maid or something.
