    I have that travel router and like it a lot. It offers some great features like MAC address spoofing. In my situation, WiFi was available but only to three devices per paid account. My friend had an extra slot so I added my phone MAC address and I spoofed it on the router. The router connected and rebroadcasted the WiFi under my own private SSID.

    Mine never overheated but I was in a climate controlled room. Will you have that in India?

    Mine was on 24/7 for about three weeks total with no issues.


  • No, the only things you’ll find is a toggle to switch between the two. It’s not possible to split the connection.

    You can buy a little 4 port switch like this. Plug ethernet from the router into this and then both computers can take a port from this.

    Note: The speed will be split between both computers based on usage. If they’re both downloading something, it’ll split it evenly. If one computer is idling, the other could have full speed.










  • I like to use a Hiren’s Boot CD / USB for this stuff. HBCD comes with loads of tools and boots straight from the USB. just throw it on a Ventoy stick or create a boot drive directly with Rufus or something.

    It’s best to clone a drive while it’s not actively being used, which is why I like HBCD because you’ll be running off the USB and not your boot drive.

    There are some HDD tools on there that will clone your drive 1:1.

    Just be very very sure to double check source vs destination. Once it’s done cloning, remove the old drive and test boot. If it works, wipe the old one in Hiren’s and reboot into your OS again.
