At my college, we have an airgapped network for security classes, and when assignments are due, we often run out of ethernet cables. I had just mentioned I would bring a switch with me the next day and people were confused why I'd be goofing off with a Switch so close to the deadline. Now we can avoid that kind of confusion! :)

> when assignments are due, we often run out of ethernet cables. I had just mentioned I would bring a switch with me the next day As I understand it, a switch will solve a shortage of ethernet ports, but will make the cable problem worse by requiring one extra cable. What's the purpose of the switch here?
I'm [vaguely] interested in unconventional Android devices. People often talk about "plenty of android devices with X" where x is e.g. a keyboard. But a search of Google, Ali Express, etc don't yield much except for conventional phones. Is there a list or other source where I can discover these mythical interesting devices?

It is annoying when companies name their product after a commonly used word. Even more so if both are equally popular.

I'd presume anyone bringing a network switch with them to class would also have some Cat5e kicking around. Otherwise, what good is the switch doing them?
i am a bit disappointed that what has been done is basically installing linux and setting up a bridge using usb ethernet dongles. not what i was expecting. its still somewhat amusing though.
Yeah, and only two ports so it's not useful as a switch. It could be useful as a router though.

Living on a farm in the Swedish countryside with 1Gbit/1Gbit fiber I'll probably make you even more jealous...
Hej Yetanfao, can I randomly ask you if you're aware of any tech positions you could refer? I'm seriously considering moving to Sweden (and it's not just the 1Gbit fiber).
(100/100 Mbps since 2005 or so in a little village in Sweden)
The author's main motivation is probably the cool name "Nintendo Switch Switch" but a bridge is not a switch, so it should be called a "Nintendo Switch Bridge".
Being a little pedandic here aren't we? For all intents and purposes a bridge is basically a switch with two ports. At the end of the day this is running on a Linux kernel so it can basically be any networking device you want it to be, even a router.
Absolutely nobody:
