    Reviewers Evaluate Framework's Laptop 16

    Hmm ok, USB4 can work with many thunderbolt devices, except for those devices that insist to use special features that only a true TB4 has. This laptop is quite good in overall, to me the cons are:- 1) Not enough m.2 slots. I need at least 3 slots, my current laptop has 5 and all filled up...

    NETGEAR Introduces Nighthawk M6 Pro—World's First Unlocked WiFi 6E 5G Mobile Hotspot

    From M1 to M6, until today still no reserved IP function, no port forwarding. Otherwise this could be a good router replacement. I still keep my M1 and no plan to upgrade because of no real benefit in newer models.

    MediaTek Shows The World's First Live Demos of Wi-Fi 7 Technology to Customers and Industry Leaders

    Synology Introduces DiskStation DS418j NAS

    This is low cost NAS, not even supports trunking. 87MB/s is not too bad if the price is attractive. If 100MB/s would be good utilizing the 1GBE bandwidth.
