These
days, wireless routers are everywhere. Nearly every house, apartment,
business, and sketchy van parked down by the river has one. A functional
wireless router allows you to easily connect your computer to a
broadband Internet service so you share data files and stream media
between mobile/Wi-Fi devices.
Although
you could opt for a wired router, we suggest a wireless model so you
can avoid stringing Ethernet cable around your home unless you
absolutely have to; besides, a wireless router is the best way to access
the Internet using your smartphone or tablet. And if you ever discover
you absolutely must have a wired connection, the router will have a
built-in switch to handle...

San Disk’s new plug-n-play Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0 has the typical USB connection on one end, as expected from a flash drive. But this one stands out because the other end has a microUSB connector which makes it ideal for moving content on devices including OTG enabled Android smartphones.

Cutting the cable TV cord
in 2015 is supposed to involve some sacrifice. Many cable channels still
don’t stream their videos to non-subscribers, and with the growing
number of streaming services that do exist, you must make hard choices
about where your money goes.
But this brave new world of streaming video does have a big
loophole in the form of password sharing. Borrow a login to your
favorite channel app or streaming service, and you can defray or dodge
the cost of subscribing on your own. Is password sharing morally
dubious? For sure, but it’s also one way to protest a system that’s been
stacked against consumers’ interests for years.
