It is priceless but it requires so much mental energy to fully use it:

  1. find the information
  2. understand its implications
  3. find the time and the energy to use it.

My neighbor asked me about his internet and all the problems he encountered at the beginning to get it. I explained to him that it was normal because we were not physically connected. Then I asked him what kind of phone deal he had?

He had the 19.99 Euros / month deal that would allow him to have 4G access and 50 Gb Download/Upload. I explained to him that, all he needed, was to get a phone that had 4G connectivity and to share that phone connection with his computer.

He told me that there was a meter on his 3G phone and he was limited to 3 Gb. I repeated my explanation a second time: His internet provider, Free gave only 3 Gb for 3G bandwidth but 50 Gb for 4G bandwidth: therefore he needed a 4G phone or a hotspot with 4G to have almost free/fast/unlimited  internet (for his personal usage).

I hoped that my explanation got through his brain but looking at his facial expression, I think that I wasted my time one more time

Such is my life ….!
