Networking is so easy nowadays. Just plug a network cable into your device and it mostly works out of the box. Don't you guys remember the bad old times of coax cables and token ring?

Imagine providing a public WiFi before 1993, even if you ignore the fact that WiFis had a cable back then.

I'm not old enough to having been bothered by network rings and grew up with the high-tech that were end resistors.
