While it hasn’t always been easy, I am a big fan of my Hubitat C-7 Elevation hub. One of the great things about it, and the other Elevation hubs that the Hubitat keeps on making them more awesome. Today they released the 2.2.9 firmware update which among a HUGE list of changes, drivers, and improvements, also includes some security “enhancements”. […]

It’s so weird that Ubiquiti (UI) has stopped pretending that Early Access (EA) kit is a secret, except when it suits them. But, I guess it’s their ball, they can throw a tantrum and go home whenever they want. I just wish there was more consistency around the whole thing. Oh, and this router thing looks pretty slick; well maybe […]

It’s always a great thing when companies break the rules they set for themselves. But hey, who are we to judge? We’re all hypocrites in our own way :). On the plus side, I guess this means we can talk about the Unifi Dream Machine Pro SE before it comes out of EA. Or at least I hope so, because […]

I’ve been meaning to make this quick how-to for quite a while, and finally got around to it. Quick demo of how to block/unblock clients with the new Unifi user interface.

I try very hard to resist piling on when a tech company makes a tone-deaf call, but this time I simply can’t. Seriously Amazon, WTF? If you use Alexa, Echo, or any other Amazon device, you have only 10 days to opt out of an experiment that leaves your personal privacy and security hanging in the balance. On June 8, […]
