You may be wondering, as I was, why this is using LTE and not 5G:
the device is branded "FreedomFi 5G Indoor"

This is apparently a lie. It's a SCE4255W which only supports LTE. This is the same for the Nova 430h.

Pentagon plan to relocate CBRS sparks fierce industry backlash

A controversial DOD proposal to relocate Citizens Broadband Radio Services (CBRS) spectrum from 3.55–3.65 GHz to the lower 3 GHz band is drawing sharp criticism from across the broadband landscape. The plan, which echoes a previous proposal by AT&T, would open up spectrum for auction to

@manuel @geerlingguy @freifunk @BNetzA ok, yes, maybe a "Delete #DFS" would be a too bold statement. I'm wondering if internet assisted frequency activation (which I think #CBRS does?) could be an extra option. That way we would at least have a consistent state. Right now, there are just too many false positives with DFS. And DFS events lead to split clouds in a city-wide mesh, it's very tricky to converge to a new channel in a distributed, lossy, large #MeshNetwork.

I’m happy to share that I have obtained the new #C5S 5G LAN Specialist certification available from #CWNP.

Thank you to Dr Avril Slater for developing this fantastic training and to #Celona for backing it.

Considering submitting a talk to #defcon on the work I've been doing #hacking distributed wireless (#diwi) radios and gateways for a startup. Some of the security problems are stuff I haven't seen since the mid and late 90s. Funny seeing #web3 and #crypto being undermined by stupid shit that has been known about for decades.

Would anyone be interested in hearing about this topic and seeing some live demos of taking control of #CBRS radios and risks to these new networks?
