Dear Long Wind: Usually I don't reply AOL but in this case I second that. I'm an unhappy Firefox-user on Debian and am looking for alternatives. Yes, I do have many tabs open, 'cause I need them. I got plenty of memory but Firefox does not seem to use it efficiently. On Sunday, December 16, 2018

Re: Most reliable dual band driver/chipset

I'm using Ralink RT3572 (Linksys WUSB600N v2) with no problems after disabling mac randomization in Network Manager. The only drawback is it is only a 802.11n device. I'm looking for a 802.11ac upgrade with no success.

new isn't necessarily better than old i don't have enough reason to install security update and new firefox at this point. 52.9.0 performs  a little better now. Thanks for your info. On Monday, December 17, 2018 2:42 PM, Tixy wrote: On Mon, 2018-12-17 at 04:32 +, Long Wind wrote: >
