    Global Data Coverage

    What phone are they using? If it supports eSIM, they can use something like Holafly or Airalo. There was even a thread recently about other travel eSIMs: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/e-sims-for-travel.18987189/

    Help an AMD newb to do it the right way (Windows + drivers)

    Seems like an issue with the IGP if the driver is not installing. I would be tempted to disable the IGP within BIOS after you install the discrete GPU, and see if the driver installs fine for that.

    Built in WiFi on Motherboards

    Or in cases where it doesn't (like my MSI X570 Tomahawk), you can get a replacement antenna that does. Only use it for bluetooth but having the antennas on top of the desk instead of behind the PC makes a big difference.

    Help an AMD newb to do it the right way (Windows + drivers)

    From AMD directly. I would make sure you're on the latest BIOS first before installing. Then proceed to install Windows afterwards. Chipset next: https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/drivers.html/chipsets/am5/b650.html Then GPU (this should cover both 7900XT and IGP)...

    Community Fibre

    This. Had it happen again to me twice a couple of weeks ago. Usually a router restart fixes it, but if that doesn't turning off IPv6 (which you need to do in the web UI for the supplied Linksys router) will work.

    Most reliable SDCARD ?

    Samsung Evo has been the most reliable for me so far. Sandisk is a second, I had a bad one just over a year ago, but everything before that was fine.

    Why you SHOULD be using Firefox

    There is one issue where having ambient mode (setting in the player) can make YouTube laggy in Firefox, but I don't think that affects the video buffer. Could try turn it off anyway and see if that could help.

    Controlling rgb lighting

    I remember trying this a while back. It does work well but for some reason it triggers certain anti-cheats. A quick look at their GitHub seems it's still a problem.

    E-Sims for travel

    Checked their site but I can't see the 10gb for $10 deal? Assuming you mean world explorer, 10gb is $26.40. They do seem cheaper at least compared to Airalo when comparing Hong Kong for example, but I found getting a local physical SIM in certain Asian countries to be even cheaper than eSIMs...

    Edge copilot

    Or if you mean the one found in the Edge browser, it'll be in the browser's sidebar settings.

    How to set up a fall-back internet connection when the primary one fails?

    Yes, that would force everything to move over to the phone hotspot.

    How to set up a fall-back internet connection when the primary one fails?

    That wouldn't work, wireless clients typically roam to the strongest WiFi signal, not the one where an internet connection is working. Ideally you want a router that allows multiple internet connections (eg dual WAN) and supports failover, but I don't think you can connect your phone as an...

    Cheapest Card with HDMI 2.1?

    Does the monitor not accept Displayport? I think it's DP 1.4 that can do 4K at 120Hz, and they'll be much more common than GPUs with HDMI 2.1.

    Avast blocking 'Vulnerable Drivers' at every boot up?

    It has real time protection so yes, not just file based stuff. Malware is also covered.

    Help with ping/latency issues

    If ethernet isn't an option, mesh works as a good alternative. Power lines have more variables which can affect stability. Depending on the building if for example upstairs and downstairs are on different circuits, it would sync at a very low rate and may even have worse latency than WiFi...

    Valve announces the SteamDeck

    What SSDs have people swapped with? I've seen WD/Samsung/Sabrent/etc used but no idea which to go for. Never thought I would reach the limits of my 256GB + 512GB microSD, doesn't help that I've been using it as a desktop/laptop replacement.

    Moving BT hub

    It'll be engineer dependant, you'll just have to ask when they arrive.

    Unable to access a particular website using Android phone, all other devices work.

    Which particular website is it? Have you tested both WiFi and 4G/5G? Are you using private DNS on the phone?

    Moving BT hub

    No, you can't as FTTP no longer uses the phone lines. You should see the fibre going to an ONT, then an ethernet cable from that to the BT hub. You can't extend the fibre but you can extend the ethernet cable between the two. There's not enough pins/wires to repurpose the extended phone line as...
