Ha! Funny that, I had issues with my WiFi card too! I could connect but wouldn’t have the right certificates. I solved this by using an Ethernet cable.

Thanks that’s good to know! Any performance issues? Are you torrenting with it?

Thanks! Yes that’s the idea.

Thanks. I might simply go for the raspberry pi solution as well.

Thanks, that is the idea!

Old distro and lack of packages

Edit: I did manage to install Puppy Linux onto it, but I was severely limited by the CPU which is 32bits. I’m trying another old laptop next! Thanks everyone!

Thanks, very helpful !

Thanks! I haven’t thought of the 32 bit issue… I might give it a try anyway for the experience!

I’d like to go low cost at the beginning but thanks!

Thanks! I had installed Mac OSX on it back in the day so I’m hopeful.

Thanks, it’s removable

Thanks!

That’s good to know ha ha! At least I can have some fun before investing further…
