Technology@lemmy.world•Phones should have a 'guest lock' featureEnglish
1·3 months agoThis is neat, i didn’t know about it.
The article gives the example, though, of giving your phone to someone you specifically dont trust. The most dramatic example is an insurance card or ID to the police when you get pulled over. The best answer there is just dont ever do it.
This pin setting says the security on it is pretty weak and to not give it to people you dont trust.

16·2 years agoThere are certainly are bigger issues in the world right now, sure, but it isnt about “rights for software”, it is about the ability people to talk about what they want (in this case, software)

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I use public URLs but route within my home network?English
2·2 years agoOoo, interesting.
I am going for public access here, so it wont work. But i think this is how some routers are set up. Like i think asusrouter.net is set to 192.168.0.1, so anyone with the router can go to the same url / domain and itll send them each to their own router. Found that out the other week and thought it very clever.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I use public URLs but route within my home network?English
2·2 years agoSo i had done this (with Adguard rather than pihole) and i think i was getting caching issues. Whether or not i was, though, i removed it and it looks like my router is handling it all just fine without the rewrite on the local DNS server.
Some folks mentioned “hairpin NAT” - i was reading the wiki on NAT last night but didnt get to hairpin, but that appears to be what is happening.
The conclusion is - my setup had been doing what i want the whole time without any DNS fiddling. I updated the original post with the speedtests.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I use public URLs but route within my home network?English
2·2 years agoI guess I should say that I think there were caching issues, but the problem was coming from an iphone and the Bitwarden app (connecting to the self-hosted vaultwarden).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I use public URLs but route within my home network?English
2·2 years agoi think this is what I was doing with Adguard and using the re-write rules, but then the client (my phone, for example) would cache the IP address and it would fail when I was out of the house/network.
Or am I misunderstanding what you are saying here?

3·2 years agook, well that’s easy to set up if that is how it just works! i wonder if maybe i should (at least temporarily) self-host some sort of speedtest app on the server and check the speed from my phone while i’m on wifi using the IP, wifi using domain name, and off wifi using domain…

Glad other people engaged with it productively, but yea was a real “this is what people have been talking about”

Technology@lemmy.world•How to properly test my internet speed from ISP?English
22·2 years agoI turned off QoS and immediately am getting 930 on speedtest.net from the desktop browser!
Also, very helpful to know Issue 1 here. I assumed that the router would be the best spot to test since it is farthest upstream (other than the modem). I didn’t know it could pass traffic faster than it can decode, but that makes sense that people would have tried to make that the case. The router is still getting ~500 Mbps while the browser is much closer to the full 1000.
