I have a 10Gbps link over single mode fiber and I didn't even have to fiddle with it. -

When I can Get 10G BiDi from amazon for $50... SEND IT

ive been full remote since 2009.this is 100% accurate@Viss I was hired remote in 2021 after a "covid" layoff. Not spending 1.5hrs a day on BART (toilet) commuting to SF was a huge blessing. I worked remote until the small company was bought by a large multi-national and dissolved the local I.T. dept. It was the BEST job I have ever had. I still keep in touch my old manager and director, as they were 1000% good people.
Just before the buyout happened, we went through the motions for return to office... Not a single employee reserved desk space. Facilities and management of the company took that at face value and decided to not renew the lease on the building. The company took the hint and converted to 100% remote.
Multi-national buyer came in and said NO, and told people to report to hotel desks in the multi-national's local office. ️ A lot of people quit for good reason.

Office manager came around asking if I knew what to do for a firedrill tomorrow.Office manager came around asking if I knew what to do for a firedrill tomorrow. Apparently "not be here" is not the answer that was expected.
Office just posted a ton of paper on the walls **today about EVAC routes and MUSTER point locations for a firedrill that has been delayed for about 2 months now.
Working from coffee shop seems like the correct answer for the impending clusterfuck.
