yikes.  I'm about to sell my normal ps5 since I don't ever use it since getting the Pro.  I'm betting I can get a decent premium even with it being used.

Yeah, but these are pricey. Each one is a full fledged router. They run several different networks. 
I'm still running the same ones from this post:

QuoteDoes anyone have a paid wi-fi router, or are people just using what their ISP gives them?

I bought some Deco's a year ago, and those are kinda cool. The ISP routers are usually very bare bones feature wise.

Like apparently I could set up a VPN client and/or server on the router. I could set up different networks for IoT, WIFI 6Ghz. Prioritize devices, secure different things. And I can adjust this stuff from the app.

I mean none of it is crazy stuff, but ISP routers usually barely do anything; so it feels kind of cool by comparison.
At this point the old ones have paid for themselves compared to the ISP router.  


They're still really nice.

Buying 2 more routers for my mesh network.  

I have two right now, but they're both on the one side of the house. We have a few more devices on the other side of the house now.

These are nice, you can connect them with wires too.  The new ones are 2.5 Gbps ports, and the current ones I have are 1 Gbps ports. Part of the reason I wanted to upgrade. Should be 2.5x my bandwidth of my server.  


I kind of feel silly for buying these. But there have been some connection issues on the other side of the house. Like my Apple TV can't play 4k content even though it really should be able to.  And even weirder is that the kids Roku can't stream some things without greatly reducing the quality. It was struggling to play 1080p content, so I dropped it down to like low 720p.

Finding it hard to be excited about new PS Studios games. 

Not interested in Live Service. 

Even the stuff that I am excited for, it still seems to be years away.  

I think the last first party game I bought was Astro Bot ~18 months ago.  And I think the one before that was Ragnarok.  

I think I've bought like 9 games published by SIE this gen.  

Which is like a third of how many games I bought last gen...
