This is a very neat tool that I’ve bookmarked for further research. But I think you’re missing the point. He doesn’t need to hide network traffic, he needs a Wifi6 router. Now maybe you could setup a router to go through this service to further obfuscate the traffic but I don’t think this alone solves his purpose.
But I’m very glad you posted it because I love learning about little tricks like this to get around overly restrictive networks.
“The cruelty is the point” ™️
They should sell these. I’d buy some.
I should take some pics of where I live. Yeah it’s pretty rural. Outside of wake county it becomes like a different state. I mean it’s shocking how much difference 30 miles can make. I’m very surprised there isn’t more political unrest here given the mixing of very different ideologies in a small area.
But you’re absolutely right, it’s always about spending your campaign dollars wisely. And no amount of Trump propaganda is ever going to change my mind. So let the Rs waste money on me.
Anybody that’s ever had a 14 year old teenage boy under their roof knows how absolutely idiotic they can be. With all those hormones pumping through their bodies I’m not sure how it isn’t an automatic insanity plea. Couple that with less than ideal family dynamic it’s amazing these type of things aren’t happening daily.
Long story short, no 14 yo should have access to a firearm. Period.
Those two sure know how to inject some wisdom in the complete randomness of that show sometimes.
You mean the right way and the wrong way. I would much rather display Tim’s big dad energy with compassion and empathy than the bullshit Vance is doing. Vance just comes off a spineless little weasel with no real moral compass.
That might generally be true but where I live near Raleigh,NC, which is one of the most educated places in America likely due to so many colleges and universities right here, we move away from the more urban areas to the generally more rural areas because it’s way cheaper and the commute isn’t terrible. It wouldn’t hurt to at least try in some of the rural areas around Raleigh like Garner, Clayton, Holly Springs, hell even Fuquay Varina (yes that’s a really town unfortunately… you can probably guess some nicknames for it. This state could be very purple pretty quickly.
I live in rural NC and I have gotten flyer after flyer for Trump. I have never not once registered republican. It’s like they have no idea that rural Americans might actually support their platform and ideals.
I do get some satisfaction that it cost Trump or sone superPAC some money to send his shit to me though.
I did this a work one time… sorta the same thing. I installed pfsense VM and left the DHCp server on. I killed the network in our office for about 15 minutes.
Do you know how many times I have killed my own network at home and I control EVERYTHING!! I’m the only wildcard…. Of course I have ADHD and documentation is not my strong suit 🤣
I work in university IT so I have some experience here. Some schools are better than others but in general providing IT services for students is like trying to wrangle a herd of starving feral cats who are all in heat.
First of all I have never seen 802.1x implemented (Ethernet authentication) in the wild that wasn’t almost immediately removed. It’s a shitty protocol that’s terrible to debug. I totally get why they restrict APs … my god if every student had one it would be a pain. It would be like standing in a crowded room with everyone shouting and you’re trying to pick out one conversation 20 ft away.
My guess is you’re basically in a situation like my son was at ECU. It’s likely not really a university dorm but closely affiliated hence the reason of a third party. Or the central university IT is abysmal and can’t be bothered. Either way the only reason to use 802.1X is because they think it’s more secure, when in fact it’s way more trouble than it’s worth. You can do the same thing by controlling downstream routing or MAC filtering. The ECU “dorm” did that and it wasn’t much better honestly. You had to go into a website to add your MAC address to get access to the WiFi. Firstly how do you do that when your computer can’t talk to anything. Chicken and egg problem. Secondly for the ones who figured out how to do that using your phone, good luck getting a history major to figure what even what a MAC address was.
My suggestion is don’t bother. If they’ve implemented 802.1x they’re a micromanaged IT and will catch you eventually. I’d also guess they have completely overtaxed their egress traffic and your speeds are abysmal.
On a related note, when you graduate never ever rent from an apt complex that generously process WiFi or Ethernet. It will almost always suck, they will have no one to provide adequate tech support, and they are just using it as another revenue stream.
Sorry I don’t have better advice but if they control the network there isn’t really much you can do.
I wonder how’d you get one of these if you don’t live in MI. As a NC voter I so want one of these. May just have to make my own.
Well not ALL of them 😎
One of these days I’m gonna build one in my back yard.
It’s an analogy. And on a crowded subway I sorta could.
Well we found Dr. Evil…
Well I grew up not shooting up a school so it seems to have worked. It also helps I don’t have any mental health problems. Well unless you ask my wife.
But seriously guns are just tools. Granted tools meant to kill things but still just tools. My father also taught me to respect regular tools. You can seriously hurt someone with a circular saw it’s just much harder to do from a distance.
I don’t think you should let a toddler play with a hammer. You wait until they are old enough and strong enough and wise enough to weild it properly. Then you teach them how to use it for its purpose. And if it looks like they are going to have a psychotic break and murder people with it you take away the damn hammer and make sure they can’t just go get another hammer 🙄… it’s not really that hard.
The ironic thing is my wife is currently watching one grandkid this weekend as our son and his wife are heading to Atlanta to watch the Falcons and the Steelers play on Sunday.
Well it would be obvious. Any decent network tool would be able to filter traffic on a port or type (ICMP, DNS, etc).
“Wonder why this kid has 2.5Gb of DNS traffic last week? That isn’t normal. Maybe we should go check it out”
The trick to staying hidden is to look like noise. And this would not be noise.
