La fine delle custom ROM e dei bootloader sbloccati in Europa. Samsung la prima, gli altri seguiranno

Una Direttiva europea che entra in vigore il 1 agosto del 2025 estende agli smartphone i requisiti di sicurezza degli apparecchi radio. I produttori sono responsabili di eventuali modifiche aftermarket che possano in qualche modo invalidare le certificazioni. La soluzione più facile è bloccare il bootloader.

Ci toccherà ripiegare sulle "saponette" che fanno #HotSpot mobili ed usare dispositivi col solo #WiFi per poterne mantenere il controllo.
Ed usare servizi #Voip

Well, this was a surprise. Decided to run a simple LAN ping test between two of my access points, and the results were not what I expected.

Contender 1: The "mighty" Ubiquiti UniFi AC Lite
Contender 2: The tiny MikroTik mAP Lite

The winner? By a long shot, the MikroTik! It showed much better stability and lower latency.

The Stats:

- MikroTik: Avg 8.2ms / Jitter 10ms

- Ubiquiti: Avg 15.4ms / Jitter 32.1ms

Goes to show that size isn't everything in the world of networking.

Any ideas on getting more than 31 Mbps down and a paltry 4 Mbps up?

Can’t connect to public WiFi via Linux

I am using Fedora 42, and I am unable to access the captive portal of inOui TGV. I can connect to the WiFi with no problems, but I can’t get access to the Internet.

I have tried everything:

  1. Connecting to 192.168.1.1, to http://neverssl.com, to http://wifi.sncf via browser
  2. Running sudo dhclient -r and rebooting the device
  3. Running systemctl restart NetworkManager
  4. Also other stuff I tried in the past with other public WiFis. I am sure there is something wrong with my specific device configuration, it’s not this network.

Nothing works 😩

Can somebody who understands this stuff help me?

😲 Dall’Università La Sapienza arriva WhoFi

#WhoFi si basa sull’idea che la forma dell’onda del segnale #WiFi viene alterata dalla presenza di ostacoli. I segnali Wi-Fi interagiscono quindi con ossa, organi e composizione corporea, determinando distorsioni specifiche per ogni persona creando una sorta di "firma biometrica" univoca con la quale è possibile identificare un soggetto precisamente e su diversi sistemi.
