I believe it's not possible to use two microHDMI to HDMI adapters with Raspberry Pi 4 B, because they would be too close together. Therefore people that use two monitors with Pi 4 probably has microHDMI to HDMI cables. Two of these https://chicagodist.com/products/short-microhdmi-to-standard-hdmi-a...

An old router connected to the wired network will work quite happily as a wireless access point - just make sure you disable the DHCP server. This reminded me, I also have an RPi4 at the furthest corner of my house, running in bridge mode. WiFi <--> wired To me, this was easier (and more fun) than ...

The 5V on pins 2 and 4 of the header connects directly to the USB-C power input socket pins. so, does this mean that connecting 5V 4A power supply to pin 2 is functionally equivalent to connecting the power to the USBC? I am setting up a Pi4 in a dedicated function ( picture frame) and this would m...
