THIRD PARTY FIRMWARE & ROUTERS
Start with the basics when setting up a new Wi-Fi router, there is the easy way, which will result in poor security, and then there is the slightly more involved route. Everyone has a Wi-Fi transmitter in their home, all of your neighbours, this can lead to a lot of interference. So, a good place to start is by downloading a Wi-Fi Analyser program on to your phone or computer…Many of the functions created at the open-source level are later ‘adopted’ by industrial firmware providers, by which point opensource firmware has superseded it again.
AUTOMATION AND THE RASPBERRY PI
The Raspberry Pi is a British charitable foundation of the same name, and aimed at promoting education in computer science. The simplified computer board started selling to coding enthusiasts and now has sales of 20 million units. The unit was an attempt at making something cheap and flexible. These devices have been hacked to control robots, drones, and home automation.
