This was installed into the house im currently renting, the service provider is refusing to take it down saying "you are not the owner", while my owner is saying he never gave them permission but he can't talk to them as he is very dismissive of it.

So I was wondering if it is used for network is there a way to tap into to to get free internet

I'll add follow up images if required

If tapping into it is not possible what can I do to inconvenience them so that they take it down

Hey everyone,
I’m fairly new to networking and trying to understand PuTTY. I’ve seen technicians use it to connect to switches through a console cable, but I’m not sure how the whole process works.
What exactly happens when we connect a laptop to a switch using PuTTY? How do we access the switch, what information can we see, and what commands are commonly used?
I’m especially interested in learning how this works with Aruba switches.
I’d appreciate any explanations or resources for someone just getting started. Thanks!

Just saw a post on X about the new ipv8, here is the ietf proposal https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-thain-ipv8-00.html

What do you think about it? Does it mean IPv6 failed at last and just moving on or back to extend ipv4 from 32 to 64 bit?

I dug a bit and found many Asian countries have high rate of IPv6 deployment, especially for mobile devices, US and EU have also over 50% deployments already and pushing higher. Seems they are going to put a break on that road and replace network equipment, which I am not sure if this can be done in a few years.

Extending ipv4 0.0.0.0 to 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0, from 4 sections to 8 sections, so backward compatible with ipv4. I am not a network expert but wondering that if it still will have the ability of the ipv6 like one address for each device including for IoT devices, or just expending the capacity of network addresses with zone prefixes.

so the issue here is the cables coming out of the bottom, one of them is for my room, up until this point i have been running a 30m cable trough my house to overcome this, but enough is enough

i just want to be able to plug my rooms cable into the modem itself without this hoodickey, since its the only thing in the equation that is responsible.

Im trying to make my internet slower like in the title. I mean on like every Device that is connected to the same wifi

Trying to figure out if it's possible to convert this coax cable to hard-line Ethernet for my PS5. We have no cable currently, everything in the house is connected via Wi-Fi. Depending on where you test in our house, we get between 250 to 300 Mbps download and 40-50 Mbps upload. I have no major complaints about signal but I'd like to use my PS5 to do remote play and as I understand it, hardwiring is incredibly important for this to work successfully.

Our main modem is on the first floor, the PS5 is in the finished portion of our basement. The coax that comes from outside our house runs into a three-way splitter then goes off to the right through the crawl space and up to the living room. That is the only current connection. However, at one point there was a coax that split off to the left and stayed in the basement to provide signal to a TV we used to have down there. We did some work downstairs so we no longer use this cable for anything (switched to streaming only) and it's now just hanging out behind the unfinished wall.

In the it's in the perfect location. If I was able to somehow convert the coax cable to an ethernet cable I can put it through the pass-through slot of the faux outlet I've already installed in the wall to hide cables for the TV on the other side. Question is do I need a MOCA converter for this or is there something else I should be using. If Moca Is the way to go do I need just one at the end of the coax? Lot of the diagrams online make it seem like you have to run one to the router and another one to the location you want to hardwire.

Thanks in advance for assistance, I'm not very savvy with this stuff

Will be able to convert one end into normal rj45 jack for my switch?

Thanks in advance

I used a Netgear C6220 combination cable modem/router for years without it causing 'noticeable' physical discomfort after I turned off 5ghz and used only 2.4ghz while sitting eight to ten feet away. I switched to fiber recently so had to change to a different unit. I've purchased numerous models such as:

• Netgear R6260 (Mediatek - wifi 5 - two antennas)

• Netgear R6400v2 (Broadcom - wifi 5 - three antennas)

• Netgear RAX 10 (Broadcom - Wifi 6 - three antennas)

Summary: The R6260 with two antennas and 5ghz turned off is pretty similar to the original C6220 unit in terms of discomfort, which also had two antennas. The R6400v2 and RAX10 are not. Both of those hit you with this constant low-intensity, ADHD-feeling, brain fog, difficult to concentrate, tense feeling, inability to focus or relax, and just overall unpleasant thing going on.

Before anyone claims it's impossible for Wifi/EMF to do things like this, there's a reason when wifi routers first came out they said directly on the box you're supposed to sit at least five feet away from them (inverse square falloff). The original C6220 range was also pretty short and didn't reach the end of the living room in my small to medium sized house. These other units seem to go much further in range where you could probably use them outside standing in the street.

If I turn down the transmit power on the RAX10 unit (w/ 3 antennas) from 100% to 25%, you can notice the discomfort decrease, but it's still orders of magnitude higher than the C6220 (2 antennas) or R6260 (2 antennas). From what I've read, each antenna on the R6400v2 and RAX10 is dual-use and outputs both 2.4ghz and 5ghz (but not sure)? If you were using only the 2.4ghz band and trying to decrease Wifi irritancy, which of the antennas would you attempt to unplug? One in the middle? The two on the outside? I'm not sure which ones transmit 2.4ghz.

let’s be honest - some IT roles are already feeling the pressure and people are just not talking about it openly.

Tier-1 support, basic sysadmin tasks, repetitive scripting -AI is quietly eating into all of it. not overnight, but it’s happening. And the people who think “it won’t affect me” are probably the ones who should be most worried.

what I’ve noticed is there are two types of people in IT right now: those who are low-key stressed and hoping it blows over, and those who are just building with AI and widening the gap on everyone else.

The roles with real staying power, security, cloud architecture, infrastructure at scale — still need human judgment. for now. But “for now” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

so what’s the vibe where you work? Is anyone actually talking about this, or is it all just awkward silence in the team meetings?

I was entering a site to go on about my day, using my cellular data on IPhone 15 pro. When I was about to enter the site it said “SSL Certificate Invaild”, showing the certificate is expired and mismatched. But when I connect to wifi and try the same site, it works and the certificate is secure.

Picture 1 is when I was using cellular data, second one is the same site but I used a local wifi.

What should I do, need urgent help. Any advices is appreciated.

So a was checking the ports a have opened in my router with net analyzer and I sow por 4444 opened and I don’t know what it used for, can someone help me

Hi all. I'm new to DOCSIS, working under this, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what are some of the main things/topics that I have to know definitely in order to start. Anything that would actually help me understand the HFC/DOCSIS work? Thank you

Hi I have a problem with my home network, I am currently using Tp-link av600 power line kit. The speeds my pc is receiving are painfully slow, the download of games and apps are like 4-10mb/s, the speed test shows around 30mb/s on the Ethernet cable and 60 while on WiFi, my router runs at around 100mb/s. I really don’t know what might be an issue, I have changed all the cables to a Gigabit ones at least, but the problem still occurs. Is there any device I can buy/solution for me? I prefer not to drill the walls/floors, buy new network contract or move the router because it is mounted inside the rack and all the systems are wired directly into it and fitted in place. I want to have decent download speeds. (The latency is around 4ms)

As per title.

Did I botch this job?

Hello people, today my school announced that people with macbooks are not going to be able to access the wifi network since they got sponsored by microsoft and dont want people to use other devices.

I do not have the budget to buy a new laptop. How can i bypass this restriction on my m4 macbook.

Thanks and much love💕

Before anyone gets upset id like to specify that she's putting herself in danger both physically and mentally. She believes her conspiracy theorist telegram/Facebook groups/youtubers are the only people in the world who tell the truth. She's refusing medications and buying harmful substances off the internet because these sources tell her it'll "get rid of all the diseases the government is putting in your body". She locks herself in her room all day every day afraid to go out because these tin foil hate wearing nutjobs are the only people who aren't "fake news" and thinks the whole world is out to get her. The only time she goes outside is to take photos of clouds to use as "proof" the government is controlling the weather. She's not senile and has all her mental faculties she's just really uneducated and really gullible.

If i block them completely she will know and be upset. What I'd like to do is limit the amount they work, regardless of how that happens as long as I can organise something where she just blames the internet and loses interest in trying. I'd prefer if it was router level (maybe a free dns filter?) but would settle for a phone app or something as long as it's subtle.
