Got my P's today at 33! *Literally* Saved by Luck — Nervous driver who thought I'd never get them

Just wanted to share this online since I don't have many people to share with. 😖
(I think it's also a bit of a unique story)

➤ Reasons why I got them:

Decided to get my P's this year since my dad has been having heart problems and always wanted me to get my P's. I've always had driving anxiety with a fear of hurting someone on the road or in the passenger seat.

A specific few of my "friends" also looked down on me for not having my P's (I've discarded those people). I also recently discovered a lot of women dislike giving others lifts (even besides myself), despite infrequently and living within close proximity. That said, I also recently got a girlfriend and wanted to make her happy by making her my passenger princess, lols!

➤ Prior to the Test:

I had a Practice Test an hour beforehand and failed, lmao. My instructor reacted with concern but advised I remain calm throughout the test, even if I think I've made a mistake: "Stressing and worrying on the road will only make your problems worse — Just focus on everything you've learned and drive as safely as you can, that's all that matters."

(Other Info - Past Driving Experience: I had six lessons three months prior to the test. Five years prior, I've also had five lessons (Cancelled exam due to Covid), and had a few hours of driving experience from 15 years ago (Stopped driving due to a very mean instructor).

➤ How my Test Day went:

I passed on my first go! However, I "technically" failed (at the very last minute, goddamnit!) At the last corner before finishing the test, I made a fatal error when I accidentally merged lanes where there were two turning lanes (I couldn't see the lane lines while turning). The first thing my examiner asked my instructor after we parked was; "Should I fail him?"

My heart freaking sank...

My examiner and instructor both had a little chat before taking me to the main office and rewarded me my P's - Congratulating me before reminding me to stay in my lane in the future.

➤ The reason I passed was because: In a real-life scenario, I wouldn't have obstructed any traffic since there was no one in the lane next to me. However, for a Learner's Test, I technically failed.

My instructor informed me beforehand that I got a nice and generous examiner for the test and the results showed, lol! I spent most the rest of the day depressed until my girlfriend took me out to dinner and had a wonderful rest of the night.

✨ Wishing all you Learners the best for your P's! ✨

...If a nervous wreck like me can do it, so can you! ✨🤗💖

Will Ethernet Cable "greatly" improve connection if connected to an Extension Router?

I'm currently using an Extension Router (wi-fi) to play competitive online games.

I was wondering if an Ethernet Cable connected to an Extension Router will greatly improve the connection (I'm about 15m away from the extension Router).

PS: I can't connect directly to the main router due to housing reasons.
