Raspberry Pi’s new PoE+ HAT uses too much power!

Raspberry Pi’s new PoE+ HAT uses too much power!

The new PoE+ HAT has some issues, like using almost twice as much power for its own operation as the original PoE HAT. It does supply more power to the Raspberry Pi, but at least for the Pi 3 model B+ and 4 model B, does that even matter? Mentioned in this video:...

I lied… WiFi 6 on the Raspberry Pi is NOT faster than Ethernet

I lied… WiFi 6 on the Raspberry Pi is NOT faster than Ethernet

As it turns out, my benchmarking process was flawed, and I had to learn a bit about the Linux networking stack to figure out why! Special thanks to commenter marvell marvell for pointing out the obvious, and to Javier Choclin for suggesting I try out the MZHOU...
Raspberry Pi CM4 does 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet!

Raspberry Pi CM4 does 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet!

The CM4 goes beyond 1 Gigabit with WiFi 6. But can it do 2.5 Gbps Ethernet? I’ll explore that question using the Rosewill RC20001 PCIe card, and test how fast it can go on my new baby 10 Gbps home network! Support me on Patreon:...
