My notes on the Networking and Communications lecture

I found this class to be intimidating, but it got me thinking about using networking to solve some real world problems in my own life. - can I make a wifi network connection to easily control my kid's access to the internet? - I believe I can do this by making them use a designated wifi connection, but it would be nice to press a button to turn it on and off - can I create a communication device that my kids can use to reach me without internet or cellphones? - I know this is a radio, but can I make a less embarrassing one? "Mom's technically impressive named walkie-talkie" - I just installed a ceiling mounted faucet, and the remote is ... not good. I have been sent 5, only 2 have worked, and the first working one stopped working after overheating. The current one only works when plugged in. I have also had the receiver part replaced.
-Can I fix / make my own remote and receiver to make my ceiling faucet work? Kohler Purist Suspend - I just found out when looking up this link that my faucet has been discontinued. I am not surprised.

I used the Expert Network Map to see where I should look for help this week.

Only 2 dots, Adrian Torres, and Quentin Bolsee. I am not surprised.
