I have a USB stick with 32GB. However, I cannot hook an ethernet cable to the computer and router because all the router’s plugs are being used.

      It says you have to connect it to a router

      The switch is connected to the router. But if you want to go directly to the router, move other connections to the switch so you can put the instance directly into the router.

        Okay, so Abuelo says:

        • he will not rewire things with the router

        • he wants me to find a way to create a Lemmy instance without Ethernet, just the regular Wi Fi connection without a router or anything.

          Then tell him to do it himself, because he clearly doesn’t understand how basic networking works, and he’s not willing to adopt the easiest and most obvious solution.
