what I use on the boat to set up a Local Area Network. It creates a
very crisp 4G connection for a flat rate of $50/month.

404. That’s an error.

The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Same here

I got a Google sign on screen. I don't do Google

Really!

How do you avoid using the best search engine and the most secure
EMAIL system ever invented? I'm sure Google already knows who you
are... :-)

Between them and Amazon they have the most advanced cloud computing
systems and artificial intelligence. They will end up making
corporate data centers totally obsolete.

I use an anonymous search engine that is powered by google and bing. I
am also not sure why you think Gmail is so secure when they are
reading and analyzing every byte you send.
I feel the same way about cloud computing. All of your data is out of
your control. Google (or whoever) may not be looking at it all but you
are open to hackers who can.
Also how well is that cloud stuff working when your internet
connection breaks? My wife's place got tricked into a cloud solution
for their point of sale and it is a nightmare because there is no way
to run "no host". If Comcast takes a **** they are running a whole
country club with a pencil and this is a cashless place. When the net
finally comes back online they are trying to reconstruct thousands of
transactions from scraps of paper written by kids who can't add. To
make matters worse they run off of I-pads that are incapable of
interfacing directly with the windows based accounting package but
that is another deal.

Don't do clouds. All I want to do is post a link to a photo I took and loaded into
photos.google.com.

I suggested they just get a DSL modem but these folks are pretty
computer dumb. They contract out most of the actual IT design.
It is still a single point failure when you are depending on a remote
server.
