Actually, I’ve been thinking that if I wanted to do any reasonably serious
retrocomputing stuff, I might want to invest in a VPS. At least, the uptime
would be better, and I could use, say, screen and ssh as a remote console. That
would have a dedicated non-wireless network connection.
Long term, I’d love to see better wifi support, but I understand that’s hard
with the technology as it is.
