Spent 30 minutes with Hamina Planner.
Mapped an office, placed APs, routed cable, simulated roaming—all before stepping onsite.
The AI even cut excess 2.4 GHz noise on its own.
I used to guess coverage. Now I know.
This is how I plan Wi-Fi now:

Excellent article about big telcos and the US gov still failing to thwart scam calling. All of the inconvenient hoops legitimate providers are forced to jump through are simply side-stepped with no consequences. commsrisk.com/scam-hunters...

Was recently quoted in this article regarding Starlink pricing. I've done a few videos on the declining price of Starlink hardware and service - it very much feels like they're increasingly desperate for customers and are trying to generate demand. www.reviews.org/internet-ser...

This is old news that I'm just seeing, but Royal Caribbean's reason for banning travel routers is complete BS.
It's about not losing revenue from customers buying Wi-Fi while on the cruise. That's it. They want to squeeze every penny out of people while they're trapped on the boat.

I get comments like this often, but no one is able to tell me WHY Ubiquiti is 'not good.'
We have helped thousands of customers with UniFi, and I know first hand that UI gear works great. Is it perfect? No. But it's solid.
Also learn to spell Ubiquiti correctly before you criticize FFS.
