“Make do” with ethernet? Charlie Brown, ethernet is the superior networking interface. People “make do” with wifi.
I’m enjoying ethernet on my phone too
I can tell that you’re being sarcastic. But if I’m playing ranked match on my phone, it’s always with an Ethernet dongle. Way more reliable and definitely lower latency.
It’s hilarious that you insist on the ethernet cable but not an actual computer.
It’s absolutely making do. Having to plug an Ethernet cable in every time you take your laptop to someone else’s office, break room or conference room simply doesn’t work. Offices aren’t designed for it.
That’s when you make do with WiFi.
You do know that laptops no longer even come with those Ethernet ports, right?
You do know that most places use docking stations that connect laptops to multiple screens and… you guessed it… ethernet.
Not my last job with a Fortune 100 company. Nearly all of us used wifi all the time. Our engineering and software development groups did use desktop computers with Gig E though.
Not my last job with a Fortune 100 company.
Sorry to hear your company doesn’t care about productivity.
We get a second screen, power, and stable internet connection via docking stations.
to be fair, they did say sales
My last job was with a Fortune 100 technical company in a sales position. No one used a docking station and no one bothered with an Ethernet cable. Neither did any of the customers we dealt with. People with desktop computers were wired up but most everyone else used wifi all the time.
This is why Wi-Fi is annoying, I’ll take a wired connection over Wi-Fi any day.
I’m just picturing you walking around a room on your phone with an Ethernet adapter and cable hanging out all over the place
The moral is – Wi-fi intensity study should be part of modern architecture.
I’m all for 👍 architecture. Just consider Wi-fi before building it.
For this structure, I wonder if the best solution is – Just add more mesh points. Not elegant but what if there’s no better way?
Why do all thing need to look like these soulless glass metal and concrete blobs. Like bruh, why not build something cool lime a Roman Temple, European Castle, Viking Longhouse, Ancient Chinese Pagoda …
These are done by architects rather than designers. Usefulness isn’t a consideration, only form and aesthetics matter.
The solution is more Unifi hotspots
Just make every ceiling tile and outlet have one and you’ll have all the coverage you will ever need
Those are great, installed them at the last place I was a trainee at.
ez solution. It just costs money for new design, hardware, installation and maintenance but holy shit google double check your build plans sometimes.
This is correct. As the article says employees are using their phones as hotspots so it’s not as if it’s a Faraday cage. Their IT guy should do a Wi-Fi site survey and install a few AC Pros.
I hope this is a joke. There’s no way a campus like this is going to deploy Ubiquiti.
