Since a few years, YouTube puts annoyingly overlays on top of like the last 5 to 10 seconds of videos often covering valuable content.
Lately – while preparing for concerts – I have watched a lot of score music videos where the end really is very important to me (see the example below), for instance when rehearsing [Wayback/Archive] La Alhambra – Llano – YouTube until the final end.
The solution came from [Wayback/Archive] How do you disable these thumbnails that pop up near the end of videos!? : r/youtube

For my link archive a router I bought a few years back: [Wayback/Archive] GL-SFT1200 Secure Wi-Fi Router On The Go – AC1200 Dual-Band Gigabit Wireless Internet Router | IPv6 | USB 2.0 | MU-MIMO | 128MB RAM | Repeater Bridge | Access Point-M Mode: Amazon.de: Computer & Accessories
- It is USB-C powered (the power brick delivers 3A at 5V, but in reality it uses far less).
- Mode and reset buttons are behind the antenna (see picture below).
- It is specced as AC1200, but that’s just theoretical a number.
- It came with EU and UK plug.
I needed it because from prior experience, I knew GL.iNEt can support a special Wireless Repeater mode where it still functions as a router (hiding the LAN/WLAN behind NAT)
Two physical drawbacks likely due to the portable nature:
the plastic RJ45 ports are slightly too wide which means that these keep falling out [Wayback/Archive] Inline® Dust cover, for RJ45 socket, color: green, 100pcs. Pack: Amazon.de: Electronics & Photo- no holes in the base to hang it to a wall
One firmware drawback: it shipped with v3.212 for which I could not find release notes. Luckily the firmware v3.215 I upgraded to had: [Wayback/Archive] Firmware v3.215 is released – Technical Support – GL.iNet.
Links to product and manuals (the paper manual are just two thin sheets, but the on-line documentation is OK; I was surprised WireGuard and Tor were supported!):
