If you travel a decent amount either with family or for work, get yourself a good travel router. Its super tiny and can damn near fit in your pocket.

For family....

Never worry about connecting a bunch of devices to different Wi-Fi networks. You know how annoying that shyt is, setup everything at your home airport, then the layover airport, then the hotel. :martin:

My kids tablets, firestick, laptops, phones, ect are all setup to auto connect to the travel router. I just set up that mini router and all our devices are connected to the internet. Sometimes the hotel Wi-Fi is absolute trash so if there is a hard wired connection available or sometimes the phones are IP phones, you can broadcast your own Wi-Fi signal thats much stronger.

For work....

I never really worry about connecting to suspect open networks with my work laptop because my router has a VPN pre-installed so all traffic is encrypted. I basically will connect to any random network these days. Doesn't really matter to me.

Good suggestion. Post some good ones you've used

Does anyone have any sewing suggestions (YouTube videos, Amazon purchases, etc) so that I can repair some of my pants/shirts instead of throwing them away :jbhmm:

YETI Ramblers are overrated.

I have both of these

I had a non name brand one off of Amazon a few years ago that was half the price of the big one and kept ice for longer. In the old one I could have Ice Water last for over a day in the summer. Both Yeti styles have a better mouth area and the caps are much better. The cap broke on the Amazon one after a year of heavy use.

My 36 oz has been good for the last 5 years. Keeps my water cold all day.
