A little over 12 months ago, I posted an opinion piece on travel routers. This is just an update, so for context I recommend clicking this link for a quick read.

Since then my travel router has continued to follow me everywhere.

A little over a year ago (Jan 2022 to be precise), I started in a new role. I'm happy to say that over 12 months and one roller-coaster ride later I'm still very happy with my new role (can't really call is new any more can I?). Why am I mentioning this? Because closer to exactly 12 months ago (Ma...

WOW I wasn't expecting that!

This is just a quick short post so I can say it again. Wow.

As my previous article may have hinted at, I'm currently on leave. One of the things I'd love to get far more time for (and don't) is the chance to sit down and play a PC game. I don't have a gaming laptop t...

I may have a few too many travel routers. Perhaps the correct term for multiple travel routers is an embarrassment of travel routers?

But all jokes aside, travel routers are an essential item for all forms of travel. I've taken one with me on every recent holiday and every recent work trip. Th...
