  • I guess given your response, you are asserting their managers are gatekeeping access? Do you have personal experience in that regard?

    I ask because we have made a massive, and frankly dumb, push to get everyone and their mother to use ChatGPT at work, from C level down to the call centers. Our metrics show around %60 of queries come from male employees, despite only %30 of our global staff being male. Given that communications and access were given to all employees via the same global communications channels, we attributed that to more men being willing to try gimmicky new software than women, but I wonder if something else is at play…



  • It’s a security\legal risk to allow adhoc wireless networks within your environment, pretty much any organization above a certain size has the same restrictions.

    You could theoretically allow anyone to access your router directly, which would let them bypass agreeing to the Acceptable Use Policy, for example, shifting liability back to the organization for that users behavior.






  • A lot of negativity around Ubiquity in here, which is surprising to me, honestly. I had their USG for years and loved it, recently swapped it out for the Dream Machine and love it. Really don’t understand the complaints about linking it to the cloud. I just didn’t bother, everything works fine. Additionally, I managed to get a Debian container running on it and installed ntopng, it’s been awesome for getting realtime visibility into my network traffic.

    E. I should add I have 6 of their switches and 3 access points, one of which is at least 7 years old and still receiving updates.








  • It probably has to do with being native ipv6 and needing to ride a 6to4 nat to reach the broader internet.

    Start at 1400 and walk the MTU down by ~50 until you find stability, then id creep it back up by 10 to find the ‘perfect’ size, but that part isn’t really needed if you’re impatient. :)

    E. I found 1290 was needed for reliable VPN over an ATT nighthawk hotspot.




  • Latency plays a big role in throughput. If one download target was ‘closer’, i.e. lower latency, it will be able to scale the windowsize higher, therefore allowing more data to flow through for a given connection. Imagine network packets are envelopes and data is paper. Not all envelopes can carry the same amount of paper for a given connection, and the more paper you stuff in your envelope, the faster the transfer completes.
