βMy Raspberry Pi project entailed building a WiFi extender. With everyone working and learning from home at the same time, our WiFi router (albeit new) struggled to keep up with the increased load. Additionally, we needed to find places to spread out so our family wasnβt all on top of each other. However, certain areas of our house couldnβt get a good signal. While we could have just bought an extender, I thought it would be cool to build one using this helpful guide. Also, it proved to be a fun learning experience and, as an added bonus, the build allowed for a custom oak case making the device blend in on a bookshelf.β
βmy first project was to manage our SolarFarm to get hot water into the low temperature radiators in the home. Remarkable the Raspi B was hardly protected against natureβs elements, apart from rain. The little hero held out almost 6 years! I only had to replace the SD cards twice, a Raspi hates power outages!β
