Hello and welcome to my b:log. I'm Remy Sharp, a developer running my own business called Left Logic out of Brighton, UK. This place will mostly concentrate on web, code, a touch of business and some other personal pieces too - all available here or as a friendly RSS feed. Enjoy!
Latest: Fixing my slow Mac network speeds
For a while now both my desktop Mac (running Sonoma) and my laptop (running Tahoe - do not recommend) have had sub-optimal network speeds.
My Android phone, on our network, on the same SSID, speed tests at 1.1Gbps. My laptop gets around 160Mbps and my desktop pulls in around 80Mbps.
That's quite a difference, and even though I don't need the gigabit speeds - sometimes I can tell when the desktop is being slow (web site be getting big).
What was weird is that the network speeds get much faster if I add something like NordVPN to my connection…which doesn't make sense…
