The star links sucked anyways. Can really only handle like 100 connections before they overheat and they put them all on 192.168.0.0/24 address space so when you have 500+ people trying to connect it just straight up didn’t work.
Luckily switching to 10.0.1.0/16 is easy, but most of the people they were handed out to didn’t know that. Meanwhile HAM radio just works. It can also support unlimited connections.
Anything “vibe coded” is almost certainly stealing GPL code. Not like the industry hasn’t been doing that for years, but now they don’t even need to hire engineers to steal the code, they just close their eyes and pretend it’s all their own.
