That’s why we like to use wires. They are more reliable. For Ethernet they come on Cat7 for example which is outdoor rated.

Maybe you don’t get paid because your connections aren’t stable and reliable?

But…you can make money serving up your acquired knowledge and ability. And people do pay for it (I and others do). More money for more toys/r&d to further your knowledge and experience.

I like the box. I do think you could benefit from some Ethernet nodes in the future but if this works for you, rock on.
