I'm really happy with the quality of WiFi in my house with the eero (works much better than the smattering of hard-wired access points I used to use ... not sure if that's better steering or what?).

The fact that it's constantly trying to sell me a monthly subscription leaves a real bad taste in my mouth though. Hard to recommend.

(Would love it if someone did figure out how to get a shell on here and give me a bit more control).

"This part covers device disassembly, identifying pins of interest, brute forcing JTAG pins, and reading serial output."

So much for me expecting a usb loaded exploit or a hacked firmware

I mean now that you've got it open you could run a check against all the running services for known XSS and root exploits to see if any have open exploits that could be used to get in from the normal firmware, i mean.. you cheated but hey if they left the image decrypted ... is it really cheating
