HOT 195: Connecting Older Tech to Modern Networks - Gmail Storage, .pst Files, Internet Speeds

On Hands-On Tech, Mikah continues to answer more of your submitted questions, such as reclaiming Gmail storage from deleted emails, connecting an older iPad to a newer Wi-Fi network, and why you might not be getting exactly close to the speeds you should be getting with your internet service provider. Jack wonders why, after deleting old emails in his Gmail account, why he doesn't have more space in his account. Ronald asks a follow-up question from a previous episode involving his new Mac and whether he can use Spinrite to maintain a formatted external drive. Hassan has an Eero router with WPA3 enabled, but he has to connect an older iPad to the network, which won't work on the network. Is there a workaround he can do to get the iPad to work on the Eero network? Ray wants to know about uploading his .pst files from his Outlook client to another email provider like Gmail or Yahoo so he doesn't have to utilize the Outlook client anymore when accessing his emails. And Ross wonders if he can do anything to get access to speeds as close as the 2.5Gbps he is paying for with his ISP.
