Same for me, and as shitty as Comcast has been in other places, I’ve had only two non-power related outages with them in almost 7 years here. I think their service quality varies not only state by state, but even county to county in some places.

He tried so hard to save Artax… 😭

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.

Full tunnel would not mitigate this attack because smaller routes are preferred over larger ones. So, sure, 0.0.0.0/0 is routed over the tunnel, but a route for 8.8.8.8/32 pointing to somewhere layer2 adjacent, pushed via DHCP option 121, would supercede that due to being more specific.

The Killswitch only checks that VPN is up, not whether traffic is correctly routed over it.

You aren’t wrong, per se, I think you just don’t fully grasp the attack vector. This is related to DHCP option 121, which allows routes to be fed to the client when issuing the ip address required for VPN connectivity. Using this option, they can send you a preferred default route as part of the DHCP response that causes the client to route traffic out of the tunnel without them knowing.

E. It would likely only be select traffic routing out of the tunnel. I could, for example, send you routes so that all traffic destined for Chase Bank ip addresses comes back to me instead of traversing the tunnel. Much harder to detect.

Don’t forget about my homie Ryujinx! Better performance in same games, too!

It’s the Vanilla for me. Silky smoooooth people bits!

Probably not as bad as you’re thinking, he’s actually been waiting for this moment for years.

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.

If anyone is curious, online estimators put 80 million streams on Spotify at an average payout of ~$190,000. That’s to the record label though, not the artist themselves.

Your VPN doesn’t have the ability to strip user agent strings on HTTPS requests, this doesn’t seem VPN related imo.

For what it’s worth, I did specifically say ecosystem because the TPM is just one component, which is required to authenticate the remote wipe. Also the drivers are installed automatically with most modern operating systems, it’s not like you install your own south bridge driver, for example. Linux of course notwithstanding.

I’ve seen it used successfully numerous times. Someone steals one of our laptops, rips the drive out, installs vanilla windows, and boom it reboots and performs a wipe.

Regardless, system-on-a-chip are just that, systems; they can absolutely make remote calls without user interaction, just as intimated by the comment you originally replied to.

That really isn’t entirely true anymore since the TPM ecosystem came into existence. I can remotely wipe any pc at my company even if it’s stolen and reformatted because a hardware chip will phone home the second a compatible os is installed and internet access is available.

Yeah, if you use your own password cipher, you never have to memorize a password again. Just derive it based on some common input value, like the company name or url. Makes password rotation tricky, though, and it’s a pain when a website won’t allow a special character you generally use, creating “one offs” that are hard to track.

I hope I don’t get flayed for saying this, but I actually had this problem on Windows once, and it turned out to be thermal throttling of the CPU. I was going from 4+ghz to around 200mhz and then it would shoot back to normal. Just needed a thorough cleaning of the fans and ducting.

Thought it was worth mentioning on the off chance it might help someone.

Wow. I’d get the marshmallows out so I don’t have to get roasted alone.

QSFP and SFP are different physical connectors, they are not interoperable.

Boy, I sure can’t wait for… June 2023…?
