Great read. Doing 6 out 7 already but looking at step 5 which is a good idea. Got 5 plugs now I am not using so here another project for my list. π€ͺπ€£
Ran across this project and looks interesting so going to give it a try. Posting it here if anyone else wants to try it. https://www.projectnomad.us/ https://github.com/Crosstalk-Solutions/project-nomad

Earlier we talked about the TP-Link routers getting banned. It seems they broadened the scope and banned everything that isnβt made in the U.S. https://mashable.com/article/us-fcc-foreign-router-ban
I read the article on it. What they are doing is banning any router that are being imported without an approved from the FCC to insure the router is secure for home use and not be compromise. This does not affected any existing router you currently own and/or already in the stores. This affected only future imports. Basically next time you are at electronic store, if you look at the boxes in most cases what you will see is the FCC logo on the box which mean it was inspected and certify for home use. I see them a lot on monitor, mouse, keyboard boxes, etc..
@Brandon Lee it is a rabbit hole for sure. But in reality you can save a lot money in the long run because instead spending a hundred dollars at the store, you can 3D print it for less than $15 and be just as good.
