the first rule of #bluetooth and #wi-fi are they dont work

bluetooth

  • devices will only pair 50% of the time

wi-fi

  • auto channel option is NOT it is random channel
  • when would you ever NOT want to split your 2.4G and 5.0G SSIDs ?

  • @google #chromecast why do you AUTO chose to transmit on SAME channel as home wi-fi thus killing all wi-fi devices in the same room
  • wi-fi repeaters NEVER work they often make network worse (think about it they are doubling / repeating the wi-fi traffic so are going to be at least 50% slower)

however perhaps someone can correct me on how wi-fi repeaters work

goog #android micro sd card and usb #otg #storage issues #fail

has anyone else noticed that goog android has major micro sd card and usb otg storage issues / problems ?

well i have a Xiaomi Mi Redmi 5 and it certainly does ! the file manager doesnt even let you navigate to USB OTG

then you seem to have to go into every app and see if it has an option to use microsd instead of internal storage

well i am going to try a factory reset AFTER installing my SanDisk 128G microSD card to see if that improves things but the web gives you 20 different answers if this will help or not

lets see what happens
