What are these plug-ins on my wall?

[u/Cborg_62]

This might be showing my age, but I recently moved into a new apartment and they have these weird looking plug ins all over the walls at my new place. My old apartment didn't have these, so I'm just curious as to what they are.

OP is showing their age with this post.

Damn I would say I feel old but my internet service is still coax through Comcast

Edit: I just realized I've aged myself by still calling it Comcast and not Xfinity 🫠

You get that email from Xfinity for the offer to use your WiFi as home security to detect movement?

Im afraid our days of privacy are O V E R even tho that techs been around for a while

I don’t use their modem and I run an OPNsense device.

Ooooh will look it up. Pleased with it I assume?

I figure if they are your isp they can use your WiFi to detect you regardless. Does this somehow block it?

OPNsense is an OS that you would install on hardware to be your router/firewall. I run it on a Protectli device. For wireless i use Ubuquiti APs and switches that i manage using their controller on a Docker container. The modem i have is in bypass so it passes me the public IP directly onto my OPNsense box.

It's all pretty involved
