      I was going to say unplug it, then plug it back in. But I think you got the correct answer right out of the gate.way

    So, to be able to transmit packets wirelessly, it needs a medium to communicate them over. If you stick it in the microwave for a while, it should begin to absorb the microwave radiation. Once it’s full enough (minimum 20 minutes in microwave, recommend full hour if you have the time), it should then start emitting excess microwave radiation that your devices can pick up, and then you can check your e-mail.

    Cut the blue wire, strip it back to the rj45 plug, and then untwist the 4 wire pairs shaping them into antenna. Works every time. You will get signal for 2 city blocks. I promise.

    It just needs more power so the internet waves come out of it, try connecting it directly to the power lines outside your house so the pesky transformer doesn’t get in the way

    You’re going to need a radioactive isotope. I like cobalt-60 but caesium-137 can work too. Boil it into a tea. Plug one end of a patch cable in to port #6 and dip the other end into the nuke tea. Heavier isotopes give you more speed but less range, that’s why I like the cobalt-60. It can punch through building materials pretty good so no dead zones.

    after downloadmoreram.com was such a success, i guess something like wifi-hotspot as a service should exist somewhere too

    hm, without adding “new” hardware you say?

    • add an old wifi stick
    • add an old raspberry pi 1
    • stick the stick into the berry
    • add hostapd package to berry
    • add old ethernet calble and connect berry with the switch in the picture
    • configure hostapd to mimic a wifi hotspot (thus its not “added”, just mimic’ed)
    • configure routing, nat, dns and dhcp server (wlan side) on berry
    • configure dhcp client on berry for lan side
    • use an old cable tie to tie things together so it becomes “one piece”
    • connect the switch with another old ethernet cable to your neighbours internet router

    tadaaa !!! turned into wifi hotspot without added hardware beeing “new”
