Programmer Hacks Own Wi-Fi Using Electromagnetic Waves
Jason Cole, a programmer and Ph.D. student at Imperial College in London, created an Android app that allows users to hack their own Wi-Fi using electromagnetic waves. Many believe it’s best to avoid electromagnetic radiation; however, not all believe electromagnetic waves are bad. Electromagnetic waves carry Wi-Fi signals to all electronic devices and are the foundation of … [Read more...]
FCC to Vote on Airwaves Sharing Plan
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will vote next month on a plan that will allow companies and wireless carriers to share airwaves with the government. The FCC has been working to increase the spectrum for many years and has set aside frequencies for new Wi-Fi networks. This sharing plan was designed to make more airwaves available for future wireless devices. “The … [Read more...]
Naval Exercise Causes Mobile Phone Black Spot
