located in /etc/hosts this is one of the most critical files you will ever learn

I suppose it is good because smarter people than I adopted it.

The config is very very sensitive to spacing.

This allows you direct access to any computer as if it had a static IP.

I wish I had learned about this early on.

It allows easily for remote printing and direct NoMachine access.

There are many tools to do this.

SIGNAL STRENGTH	EXPECTED QUALITY	REQUIRED FOR
-30 dBm	Maximum signal strength, you are probably standing right next to the access point.
-50 dBm	Anything down to this level can be considered excellent signal strength.
-60 dBm	Good, reliable signal strength.
-67 dBm	Reliable signal strength.	The minimum for any service depending on a reliable connection and signal strength, such as voice over Wi-Fi and non-HD video streaming.
-70 dBm	Not a strong signal.	Light browsing and email.
-80 dBm	Unreliable signal strength, will not suffice for most services.	Connecting to the network.
-90 dBm	The chances of even connecting are very low at this level.

You can connect any two computers in linux. You can get up to 35 mb/s transfer speeds.

Procedure

Connect the cable ethernet to ethernet
The computers will try to auto config but it will fail.
Go to the settings for the connection and change the ipv4 setting to link-local
Repeat on the other computer.
Now you can ssh or mount the remote computer.
1. We use fish in dolphin\
2. fish://user@host

Very convenient when setting up a new computer and you only have a wifi network.
