gollark: Apparently my internet connection is even more broken now. It seems to somehow be duplicating packets and having wildly variable latency.
gollark: Having a good antenna does help with *receiving* the signal from your phone or whatever, at least, as far as I know.
gollark: A wireless mesh thing is *probably* going to be better than basically no signal.
gollark: Two access points or a cable is probably going to be better than one really powerful one.
gollark: Alpine Linux is a neat lightweight distro.
