I’ve had no ISP-provided Internet access since Feb. 2023 or so and, while it’s been a pain at times, I still haven’t caved into returning to the evil monopoly that is Spectrum, so far, and probably won’t for as long as I can’t land a remote job. ArrowDL, while not perfect, has been pretty good at download management for the most part in conjunction with mobile data-hotspotting.

    I said “Wi-Fi at home,” specifically, for Internet access. That service is normally never free, unless you have an incredible agreement or contract of some sort. Why bother to be pedantic if you get the gist of what I mean? Also, you didn’t answer the question.

      Because the question made no sense since wifi is free, and has nothing to do with internet. Education on the terms, when asking for help provides better answers.

      Saying wifi does not work could mean, the wifi doesn’t work, or it could mean the Internet doesn’t work. Both are very different and have different forms of diagnostics.

        So you’re just dumb or playing dumb to make a stupid point?

          Words have meaning, don’t change the meaning and expect to be understood properly. At the end of the day, it’s your problem when you’re given wrong advice and screw things up because you didn’t understand the proper terminology, and the stupidly fought people who tried to correct you so you.
