Ahh okay I’ll definitely keep this in mind since I’m mostly using my PC for gaming/streaming anyway. The reason I didn’t buy a wireless is because someone told me my pc can only do Ethernet cable. I’m not sure how true this is because I’m completely new to pc. But as long as I have USB ports...

Thank you. I also just found out that the network extender plugged in the wall in my room has a red light. According to its manual, green is the best, yellow is pretty good, and red is terrible. Apparently the cause of the red light is interference (probably all the other electronics in my...
