Learned something new today - Linux is Smart

Post by AZgl1800 »

We have two WiFi networks, a result of low bandwidth, so I bought a T-Mobile Hotspot for both my daughter, and myself.... with only one, we go over the limit, and are restricted to 128Kbps for the Billing cycle duration. :evil: :cry: that is extremely painful, I swore it would never happen again.

so, since my Hotspot goes with me, where ever I go, Motorcycle Rallys, etc.
I moved everything in the house to her Hotspot:
DISH
TV
Printer,
and all of her Internet gadgets....

I just tried to print out a document, and w/o thinking just hit Control-P enter.
nothing, the printer just looked at me.

Oh, wrong Network.
1st, I switched to the printer network,

then I opened Printers to cancel the document, and try again since I am on "her network"

sounds: click clack, rumble, the Printer is Printing :roll:

Linux saw the network changed, and looked for the printer, and sent the info to the printer. :mrgreen:

If you all don't start behaving, I'm going to turn this forum around and head back home.
