I bought a used stream at an electronic junkjard / recycle shop for $50.00 with Win 10 on it.
I went online to find a way to have a very slim Win 10. I disabled automatic updates!
1.
If you download (might need another PC) and use the newest drivers for the WLAN, there is no problem IMHO.
I own a HP Stream and it works well. Yap, not the fastest, but enought to do email and browse websides. It is very rare that youtube videos interrupt streaming.
2.
I “upgraded” my lack of storeage stream this way: The stream hosts a micro SD card slot - yuppi!
I got a SAMSUNG 250 GB micro SD (about $45) and popped it in.
3.
I downloaded portable apps only and copied to the SD card, things like Ccleaner, audacity and so on…
Only a few programs that resisted to install on the SD card got installed on the C: drive.
Everything else that is not portable got install on the micro SD Drive.
I enjoy having a backup Laptop for under $100, sure not the fastest but well working.
