Wifi is such a huge pain in the ass. Eliminating wifi will remove a significant headache--going with just Ethernet is a far easier proposition, as long as you don't go with on-board USB ethernet.
Plus, for the stated goals, I don't think wifi is essential.
- nicpottier 15y agoYes, I gathered it is a pain in the ass, but I was hoping for a bit of insight as to WHY exactly. Care to elaborate?
- jff 15y agoIt's a matter of dealing with WPA and such. There's a reason why Plan 9 doesn't have support for anything past WEP, and why even on Linux, wifi support can be kinda iffy. If you don't offer wifi, there's no let-down when it doesn't work properly :)
