I definitely agree with automatically configured stuff, but I enjoy setting link-local static IP address with IPv6, like my home server is fe80::bad:c0de
or 192.168.0.2
, and my NAS is fe80::coo1:da1a
or 192.168.0.3
. I've definitely mistyped the IPv4 a few times (see your 169 typo), but the IPv6 always delivers hackerman vibes.
I have also set <prefix>::bad:c0de
and have my IPv6 prefix on a keybind, but I understand that's a bit of a stretch.
I've looked into getting one for my AMD laptop but I haven't actually got one yet. Some models are locked, some are not, here's my research:
BE200.NGWG
is a CNVi module and everything except the radio itself was moved into Intel's CPUs, for cost savings.BE200.NGWG.NV
is a normal NIC and should support AMD.BE200.NGWG.NVX
- same as above but with an X?BE202
sucks, avoid it.
