> I re-entered my Wi-Fi password on one of the world’s tiniest LCD screens using arrow keys to select each character one by one. If you’ve ever typed a WPA2 password on a device with four directional buttons and an OK key, you know this is its own form of suffering.
I work at an e-waste recycling company. Over the past few weeks, I've been digging out a handful of laser printers to test and list on Facebook Marketplace.
I had a Brother model with wifi, and it seemed like it wanted me to enter the wifi password with a d-pad. F that, I'm not going to stand there for 5 minutes punching it in like an idiot just to test wifi. I gave up, used a USB cable instead, and noted 'has wifi but not tested' on the listing.
