I just wrote a little blog post about the time that I created a 1990s dialup ISP in my home using hardware from the late 90s.

DOCSIS 3.1 signal drowns in noise 300 000 non-correctables in a minute.
The modem switches modulation like a windmill in a storm and occasionally drops 3.1. The end result being that the modem cable connection heats up to 47 °C which probably isn't helping at all.

Ever since I got my home router and put the Telus/ISP service on "bridge mode" I have been getting a constant merry-go-round of IP addresses that I think has been wrecking havoc with my home lab and wifi.
This morning I woke up to no internet connection because the IP had changed yet again to an entirely different subnet. Everything eventually came back on its own.
Currently on support-chat with Telus to try to get a Static IP. We'll see if I can convince them...

Ugh. My ISP just announced that they were "upgrading" and that would require me to get a new router. And the new router is Amazon's EERO and it requires that I download an app and create an Amazon account to set it up. And if I don't then they turn off the internet next week.
So, what are the alternatives for routers? I otherwise like my ISP and I'm guessing another one would have the same situation.
Their tech support was a little helpful and said "Some other alternatives for routers that are locally managed Asus, TP-Link, or Ubiquiti" but I'm not sure what the pros and cons of those are.
Am I right to be paranoid about getting Amazon involved in all my network traffic?

Anyone else been bitten by the botched handover of #Octaplus to #TheOneBroadband #ISP?
They've scuppered my fixed IP (therefore breaking all my #homelab services) and the general internet access today as been flakey AF.
No information, no response from inquiries on their webform and the phonelines go to VM, disappointing.....

2026-01-14: The Day the telnet Died
"On January 14, 2026, global telnet traffic observed by GreyNoise sensors fell off a cliff. A 59% sustained reduction, eighteen ASNs going completely silent, five countries vanishing from our data entirely. Six days later, CVE-2026-24061 dropped. Coincidence is one explanation."

Es ist mal wieder die Zeit im Jahr... mal gucken ob mein lokaler Telekommunikationsanbieter endlich IPv6-Präfixe an mich verkaufen und routen mag.
Inzwischen gibt's nicht mal mehr Suchergebnisse in deren FAQs in denen steht, dass sie ganz bestimmt irgendwann mal überlegen werden, dran arbeiten zu können.
Kennt jemand einen Tunnelprovider der brauchbaren Durchsatz gewährleisten kann?

#Downdetector and #Speedtest were sold to Accenture for $1.2B.
Expect these tools to lean more on the enterprise side (they want their money back, soon).
Who knows if ISP deals are done, since you can still speed test with Fast.com (from Netflix) and Cloudflare Speed Test.

More corporate consolidation and increased enshitification.

From Internet Old Farts Club on FB: "Pat Chicas - Bringing Internet to the Island of Molokai. Prolly 1995. This was our Hawaii Online pop in the back of a record store in Kaunakakai. 256kb frame relay to our main POP and ASN in Honolulu. 6 USR modems in 2 different rotary hunt groups on an old AE SxS switch. There were a few dozen people waiting outside and in the store for me to complete my work and give them the OK to log on. Very good, fulfilling and proud times."
I remain eternally grateful to @megazone for the wonderful accompanying documentation whose diagrams helped me understand TCP/IP + Ethernet networking and led to my career.

Il post LinkedIn della professoressa Elisa Giomi, membro dissidente del collegio di AGCOM
Rispetto alla sanzione di #Agcom da oltre 14 milioni a #Cloudflare ho preso convintamente le distanze, come sull’intero procedimento che ha portato alla nascita di #PiracyShield.
Non condivido, però, neppure la concezione di tutele e #regole, per quanto perfettibili, come inutili fardelli.In ogni caso, tra chi ci vede una svolta nella lotta alla #pirateria e chi un preoccupante “salto di qualità” verso #blocchi infrastrutturali sempre più automatici, il provvedimento ha riaperto un confronto importante.
Che merita meno tifoserie e più #metodo.Tipo: discutere di proporzionalità, #garanzie e sostenibilità operativa. Metto dunque a fattor comune gli aspetti che ritengo possano fare la differenza tra costruire uno strumento stabile o un #contenzioso permanente.
1) Se l’enforcement si estende verso servizi infrastrutturali come #DNS pubblici, CDN o altri intermediari tecnici, il tema non è se i fornitori possano avere un ruolo nel contrasto ai contenuti #illeciti ma come evitare criteri troppo larghi che finiscano per trascinare nella rete anche usi pienamente leciti.
Un’infrastruttura molto diffusa può comparire spesso anche nei contesti illeciti, ma questo non dovrebbe tradursi automaticamente in #obblighi applicati in modo indistinto.2) Alla velocità del blocco dovrebbe corrispondere una velocità comparabile di correzione, con procedure chiare, tracciabili e tempi di ripristino espliciti, perché gli errori o gli #overblocking per quanto non desiderati sono sempre possibili e quando accadono ne derivano danni immediati.
3) È fisiologico che le segnalazioni operative arrivino dai titolari dei #diritti o da soggetti incaricati ma un sistema di accertamento delle #violazioni credibile nel lungo periodo dovrebbe poggiare su standard pubblici minimi di qualità della prova, #audit indipendenti periodici e un #contraddittorio effettivo e tempestivo, almeno nei casi dubbi o ricorrenti.
4) Chi sostiene i #costi tecnici, legali e organizzativi di questa operatività quotidiana? Se una quota rilevante ricade su #ISP e intermediari, è ragionevole aprire una discussione su governance, cost-sharing (o criteri trasparenti di ripartizione), responsabilità in caso di segnalazioni errate e reportistica pubblica su volumi, #tempi ed esiti.
In sintesi: proviamo ad uscire dal manicheismo del “pro” o “contro” e chiediamoci invece quali garanzie e quali metriche nel sistema dei blocchi è necessario implementare...

Right after I got 10 gigabit internet at home, NTT Flets (the fiber network I'm on) announces the planned availability of 25 gigabit FTTH next year! They've also started considering offering 50 Gbit to homes…
It took 5 years for 10G to make it from Tokyo down to Kagoshima, so I guess I have another 5 year wait for 25G?

The FCC wants to make it *easier* for ISPs to hide fees, claiming itemized bills 'may confuse customers.' Because clearly, knowing what you're paying for is just too complex for our fragile minds. So much for transparency!
What's the most ridiculous hidden fee you've ever stumbled upon on your internet bill?

Ich benötige mal die Schwarmintelligenz des #Fediverse. Bitte boosten, damit dieser Post etwas an Reichweite gewinnt.
Ich komme leider mit meinem VDSL2 Setup an meinem DSLAM irgendwie nicht weiter. Kurz gesagt ich möchte eine FRITZ!Box 7490 per VDSL2 (Profil 17a) mit meinem Zhone Bitstorm HP-150 verbinden und quasi ISP im Heimnetz spielen.
Mittels ADSL2+ war mein Setup bereits möglich und funktioniert auch einwandfrei.
Ich hab momentan 2 Ports am DSLAM aktiv, die 3 und die 15, wobei an der 3 die FB7490 hängen soll über VDSL2. Leider funktioniert im DSLAM das Default Profil nicht für VDSL, aber die Box sollte das eigentlich können. Testweise ist der Port-15 (eigentlich für ADSL in meinem Setup gedacht) deaktiviert.

I did not know AOL still offered dial-up service!
"AOL will end dial-up internet service in September, 34 years after its debut — AOL Shield Browser and AOL Dialer software will be shuttered on the same day"
It's the end of an era...that I thought ended a long time ago.

#Microsoft catches #Russian #hackers targeting foreign #embassies
Russian-state hackers are targeting foreign embassies in #Moscow with custom #malware that gets installed using adversary-in-the-middle attacks that operate at the #ISP level, #Microsoft warned Thursday.
The campaign has been ongoing since last year.

I've cut myself from the landline where my ISP only offers xDSL over copper
VDSL2 peaks at just 10 MBits/s here, giving you barely the ability to fill 1.5 TB of HDD Space, assuming 50% of available, actual available, bandwidth
They are charging a ridiculous amount of money for that obsolete technology also.
Wat peeved me is that the Power Company replaced the utility poles especially for the ISP which then disregarded the work and refused to pull the fiber optic cables with the Fiber Access Terminals in the street
On the 4G networks I can reach 100 megabits

As you can see the speed of my LTE plus provider is now at about half of what it should be.
A non-technical person would complain. I know that the data provider is using something that we call overboeking {NL}
That literally means that they allow way too many devices to be pooled together which drops down the speed dramatically (a bit more than 50%).If however you take into account that that same provider gives you on UTP cable a bandwidth that's not even enough to fill a 1.2 TB hard drive {10 MBit} with data in 28 days you know that this speed is still much much better than what they would sell you on obsolete xDSL
The power company had done everything that the data Company needed to run passive Fiber cable in the street. The data Company uses Fiber Access Terminals, to connect the houses with the main fiber optic cable that they run in the air. From the smaller cable that comes to your house you get a small breakdown interface that translates, converts the light based data into copper for which they also sell you meager speeds; things like 48 megabits for which they want more than 100% of the money that you pay them for the obsolete xDSL
The power company replaced all the electrical masts required, because they needed certain levels of quality that the old masts did not provide. The Power Company also did the work in less and 50% of the time where retaining safety for everyone and everything

Finally, there's #fiber optic #internet connection at my building!
Germany's internet is slow to come and expensive, but it did finally come. A decade after my friends in Poland got fiber in a similar place, lol (theirs is faster and cheaper).
A question to experts about German ISPs.
Does the law here let me connect using my own fiber terminal (ONT)?
