The Ghost case brought the weight and profile waaaayyyy down. My wife’s iPhone 17 with the same Zagg case is just 5 grams heavier now even though the Pro is 29 grams heavier, just phones.

I was really impressed with the Zagg Santa Cruz Snap case for my 17 Pro, but after putting on the @dbrand Ghost case today, I don’t think I can go back. Coming from an iPhone 13, the 17 Pro felt like a brick in my hands, heavy and blocky.

@jstretch85 Breaks my heart to see the first thing they blame is Wi-Fi. Couldn’t be the app, the server, DNS, or anything else. This is exactly what happens in enterprises today. People associate any type of connectivity problems with Wi-Fi since it’s the edge and all they know.

"Oh no, our product broke! Better blame the network!" Typical.

I'm teaching a class on network troubleshooting this Friday the 15th. The first way to troubleshoot faster is to not troubleshoot at all, or to build resilient networks. The first section of this class considers the nature of resilience, and how design tradeoffs result in different levels of resilience. The class then moves into a theoretical understanding of failures, how network resilience is measured, and how the Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) relates to human and machine-driven factors. One of these factors is the unintended consequences arising from abstractions, covered in the next section of the class. learning.oreilly.com/live-events/mo…

I'm excited to launch my YouTube channel with regular videos to complement my blog and help even more people to level up their #WiFi skills. #ciscochampions @CiscoInsider #coolwifikidz #mrncciew. Check it out & share. mrncciew.com/2025/08/13/fro…

@joshschmelzle Invite me.

Got some FOMO from not going to DEFCON but last time I went by myself I did not have a good time and felt overwhelmed. Need friends to go with next time!

@wirednot Thanks Lee! I made the purchase, mainly because I needed something and my Wi-Spy DBx wasn’t cutting it anymore, especially with it not supporting 6 GHz, but I totally understand. Great that it’s supported standalone, in WFE Pro, in Hamina Onsite, and by the WLAN Pi Go.

@packetologist Good review. Lucid is nice. Not $1000 nice.

My first impressions of the WLAN Pi Go! thepacketologist.com/2025/08/first-…

The WLAN Pi Team are excited to introduce the WLAN Pi Go. Wi-Fi Analysis, Anywhere, Anytime. To find out more and meet the team behind the project, join us today for the official Launch Livestream. 11am EST, 16:00 UK. youtube.com/live/3fu2wI68B…

@jstretch85 If anyone deserves this level of success, it’s you Jeremy. You’ve shared your knowledge and experience with many engineers through PacketLife, including this one. Always thankful to you for that and wish you continued success.

"I'll just spend a couple weeks writing a little IPAM tool on the side. Maybe make it open source." That was ten years ago. We launched NetBox Labs just over two years ago and it's already grown bigger than anything I imagined. I'm truly humbled by everything our team has built.

Because of Sunday’s storm, @CityMebane is experiencing a critical water shortage. The @alamancechamber at 610 S Lexington Ave, Burlington, is collecting water donations to be distributed in Mebane. All assistance is appreciated #ncpol

Max changing its name to "HBO Max" Not even kidding...

@KeithRParsons is asking @celonaio about spectrum. I’m curious if there’s been any movement on getting even more spectrum for CBRS in the US. I believe they were looking at other bands in the 3 GHz range. #MFD13

Eggless P5G is going to be huge for @celonaio #MFD13

My assumption for @RealWesPurvis client stats he’s sharing is that the SSIDs are the same across all 3 bands. There are some that have been using and recommending different SSIDs to separate security types on the different bands which could result in different private MACs #MFD13

Are we close to getting Marvis Actions for Mist Edges? #MFD13

@joshschmelzle @WiFivomFranMan Did you get the KVM bundle?

@WiFivomFranMan Does claim to support MLO across both links out of the box.

Dual band Wi-Fi 7 in the palm of your (large) hands. No 6 GHz. 😭

@311_WiFi @mrTeigen @Aaronia_AG @bentzen_trond @cemaxecuter You definitely need a 311 one

@mrTeigen @Aaronia_AG @bentzen_trond @cemaxecuter This is cool. +1

Yo @Aaronia_AG @bentzen_trond @cemaxecuter want a new action figure for your collection 🤣

In this blog post, I wrote about why I decided to try and leverage the Mist API and Python to automate the downloading of our maps, the locations of our APs on those maps, and the pictures of those APs for offline storage. What do you think? thepacketologist.com/2025/04/automa…
