  2. So it's time for a new router 😪
    Does anyone have a recommendation?

    Our house has a weird setup - there are large spaces with no option for a cable link

    The setup right now is a Orbi RBR850 mesh with 3 satellites but it's not up to the challenge in terms of (internal) bandwidth

  3. J'ai une question #wifi :
    J'ai une freebox, trois répéteurs Free et un répéteur TP-Link.
    Les murs sont épais et le signal circule mal, c'est pour ça. Grâce aux répéteurs, j'ai du signal partout.
    Le problème, c'est que mon téléphone Android ne bascule pas automatiquement vers le répéteur le plus adapté.
    Quand je change de pièce, je suis toujours connecté au réseau, mais les paquets se perdent.
    Si je deconnecte puis reconnecte le wifi du téléphone, la connexion revient à fond sans perte de paquets.
    Est-ce qu'il y a une astuce pour dire au téléphone de changer de répéteur plus fréquemment ?

  4. Less than 20 percent of enterprises have upgraded to any #Wi-Fi standard from this decade. That means most corporate wireless networks were designed before large language models, #AI agents, or modern inference workloads existed.

  5. #FediHelp #Windows11 #Wifi
    On my laptop running Windows 11, the Wifi isn’t working at all. It has different drivers and I’m not sure how to change that?

    I am not a tech person at all

    #Australia's national #science agency CSIRO will persist with #JobCuts of up to 350 roles despite an extra $387.4 million in funding announced today by the federal government…. The national science agency, which helped invent #WiFi, #PlasticBankNotes, #Aerogard and the #HendraVirusVaccine, has already seen more than 800 #positions slashed in the past two years.”

  8. Sehr schön, der Fix für #CopyFail und #openssl bei #openWrt ist da. Zack, eine Minute Update, eine Minute Reboot, schon ist die #openWrt-One wieder im Rennen. Auch wenn Privilgieneskalation auf einem solchen System kaum ein Anwendungsfall sein dürfte, aber was soll's...

    Der Fix für #DirtyFrag wird sicher zeitnah aufpoppen.

    It didn't talk to the outside world anymore. The solution was surprising.

  11. Es scheint Allgemeinwissen der #Linux Community zu sein, dass installieren von #Wifi Treibern unter alten #MacbookPro nicht Plugnplay ist. Das Wissen müsste nicht sein, das ist etwas sehr schade.

  12. Couple days ago I changed up my WIFI config. No new equipment: just refreshing settings, changing defaults and the password, etc. Eventually got through updating all my devices that connect.

    EXCEPT... my 2 Brother printers. Forgot about them, because honestly I rarely print anything these days (how 'bout you)?

    Until I needed to print a couple items to mail... and then....

  13. Hopefully this nonsense is resolved in the future when Trump is out of office.

    In the meantime, they're claiming some corporations can be made exempt if they agree to include U.S. approve control ship, firmware, and pay a fee.

    Netgear seems to have been the first company to apply for that exception (see URL). But who wants a router with USA approved spyware? 🙄

    Suggest people look into alternative hardware, while it is still available.

  14. A reminder,

    The U.S. Government has made new routers, illegal.

    To be more accurate, they made it so no new routers made outside the U.S.A. could be imported and sold in the U.S.A. The problem is no mainstream manufacture makes routers in the United States,

    The current supply currently available in stores and warehouses is all that is currently left. Many people have yet to know this, but that is why router prices are slowly climbing.

    Suggest you buy WiFi 7 soon.

  15. Today was "Play With Your WIFI Day", inspired by some annoying network slowdowns (Spectrum/Comcast).

    One of the features of Linux that I cherish, are the many command line utilities you can use to see just what is going on with your machine and network.

  17. An 100 SBB Bahnhöfen ab dieser Woche SBB-OPENROAMING. iOS und Android machen einem die Installation nicht ganz einfach. Aber wenn das Profil installiert ist, kann man WiFi weltweit(!) nutzen ohne sich überall neu zu registrieren - _wenn_ OpenRoaming verfügbar ist 😉
