LPT travel a lot with your family who has many devices? Buy a portable wifi router (~$30) and set it up with the same name and password as the router at home. When you travel, connect it to the wifi and all your family’s devices will connect automatically You will need to set up the router as a repeater. For global travel, you can set up the router to route thru a VPN (~$20/yr) to avoid streaming services or work-from-home connections from blocking you. When you’re home, set it up for an area where your wifi signal is weak. submitted by /u/PluckPubes
