Why do you need to verify full system functionality?

Because if you do not and something goes wrong, it may come at a time that causes severe disruption to you. If you have a hard drive, for example, which is becoming more and more faulty and are unaware that this part of the computer is failing then you may put important information on it and have it fail on you, destroying your information. The biggest risk of this type of situation comes in business usually. If, for example, a computer company is selling a unit and they don't test it for full system functionality then the person buying the computer may receive and use a faulty product that fails on them later. Also, if a person has computers set up in an office an they do not verify full system functionality, the system or multiple systems may fail in the middle of a workday and cause compromise to the business.

How can my idea to build a website to help people understand their personality and succeed in the Internet work?

Whaaassup guys, I'm about to lauch a website built on a weird idea so I need some feedbacks from you great critical thinkers.

-Firstly, what are your thoughts on Online business? We are not talking about great startups that make millions $, but rather the less creativity required ones such as Affiliate marketing, dropshipping, Sell ebooks/digital courses,..etc. Can people really make (much) money with these? Would you recommend people to join the online business?

-Secondly, I'll just tell my story.

There is currently too much information on Online business, which can be overwhelming for beginners as they don't know where to start and which to choose. Worse, some newbies would just follow the trends or started with the Types, which are said to make the most money and failed miserably because those are not really FOR THEM (not suitable for their personality, their inner traits,…)

=> That's why I decide to help them out by offering a free personality test(based on the Myer-Brigg test) and they are going to see their suitable online business choice on the Result page.

I know some may argue that the Myer-Brigg test itself is not so accurate and useless but I myself still find this test helpful with regard to choosing our careers. For example:

-(I) Introvert: Perform best when being alone or small groups, more patient, make careful decisions,…

-(E) Extrovert: Like dealing with people, energetic, quick-thinking,…

-(S) Sensing: Down-to-earth type,like facts/logical stuffs-> deal with numbers/ statistics,…

-(N) iNtuitive: Hate small talks/little infomation conversations, Imaginative/creative =>Design, strategist

-(P) Perceiving: Procastinating, improvising, agile, flexible,…

So as an INTP for example, a man should accordingly choose online jobs/businesses like: Freelance designer, App developer, Freelance Business consultant, Affiliate marketer (shouldn't work with a friend, partner)

=>No one can tell people exactly what to do but giving some reasonable advices and suggestions may help them avoid DEFINITELY unsuitable Jobs/business(Believe me, people still somehow choose a wrong job, a wrong way and many people are reported not happy with their work) and give them the best options based on their nature. That's is the way we want to do.

So would you, as a visitor, give my website a try even if there had never been scientific proofs on the correlations between MBTI personality and online business? (In case that my website is good designed and attracting)

Thank you in advance and wish you all the best

Why is my WiFi super slow on my computer?

Could be many things. and how slow is slow?

First check is it slow if you are connected to the router using a network cable. Use any popular speedtest site and this would give you an idea of your maximum internet speed.

If its slow here then you have an internet problem or a router problem. Try restarting it a few times, and if possible log in to the router and see what the link speed is. If its lower than what you are paying for then you need to diagnose the internet connection.

If the cabled method provides a fast signal, then next step is to run the test on WiFi directly next to the Wifi router. If you have an older router or older laptop with only 2.4Ghz signal, expect speeds to be around 20Mbps. a 5GHz should get you around 70Mbps, an AC router combined with an AC compatible computer should get you extremely fast speeds of at least over 200Mbps in practice when next to the router.

If its slower here than it should be then you have either a problem with the wireless router or the computer. Try another computer or your phone to test the internet speed. If the other computer is fast, then the issue is with your computer. If drivers did not fix the issue, you may need to replace the wireless card or fix the antennas. If its also slow, then your routers wireless is the issue. Try upgrading the firmware, or you may need to replace the router.

the above rule out any issues with the router and the computer. If you are having slow speeds at a distance from the router, but its fine close up, then you need to extend your wireless network.

Easiest way to do this is using WiFi Homeplugs. Best way to do this is to run ethernet cables fromt he router to areas of weak signal and add an additional Wireless access point.

There are free network analyzers and diagnostic tools to assess signal speeds such as acrylic wifi, which may be helpful to diagnose the issue.
