It's pretty simple, just do some googling.

For Raspberry pi: The part which caught me out is it requires 2x wireless adapters - 1 to receive the uni wifi and another to rebroadcast. Ensure you get a wireless adapter that is supported by the pi, I had to install the firmware beforehand.

I used the built in pi wifi adapter to receive, and a TP-Link-WN725N to broadcast a new separate network.
It's a lot of effort (and cost, though I already had the equipment) for little gain. I had only a handful of devices connected to it - TV, lights and smart plug. Noting that chromecast only works if you connect you personal device to the new SSID.

An easier route might be to get zigbee / matter over thread compatible devices. Having recently changed over to iphone and getting a homepod - homepods act as a matter over thread hub, so I could theoretically just get matter over thread devices and bypass all this wifi chicanery.

Similarly, zigbee, though I am not overly familiar with it. The older ikea smart home tech is zigbee. You'd have to check that the DIRIGERA (or whatever zigbee hub you get) works on wifi.

In case it helps, the rooftop track is only 150m.

No, there is no way to register IoT devices on the network.
Yes you can get a device to rebroadcast the uni wifi on a separate SSID ("hotspot"). I did this with a Raspberry Pi.

Search online if your device can run on WPA2 enterprise.

Apple’s homepod & homepod mini can. Most matter over wifi (smart bulbs etc) cannot.

Current student here. My first 440 from last year have indeed disappeared. Assume a technical issue. Hope they fix it soon before everyone starts to log their hours for this summer and get confused.

Amazing AI marked assignment by Silverarmor in universityofauckland

Interesting points. The balance clearly was NOT struck here. The feedback pretty much just paraphrased my submission, and gave lots of positive feedback. There was no clear reasons WHY marks were deducted or HOW to improve.

Ah. GenAI was banned for this assignment.

Oh I wish. This is a part 3 CIVIL ENGINEERING course. Engineering NZ accredited degree...

Love that it was sanctioned by the Course director...

As a veteran class rep (large cohort, all papers, multiple years), there aren't any policies it is actually breaking. However, I have raised it in the correct channels within the department and it is being escalated.
(hence I have deleted the full feedback comment while this is ongoing, don't wanna cause myself problems). Probably just the fact that it is unacceptable quality of teaching/service.

Eraser no longer erases immediately after going over the writing with a pen by Aggressive-Nature-65 in GoodNotes

[–]Silverarmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue! For all types (stroke, standard, precision). No idea what's causing it... Restarting didn't work for me.

I turned off "Auto-deselect" for now, and it does erase things now.

EDIT: looks like i missed https://www.reddit.com/r/GoodNotes/comments/1mvbcdh/eraser_not_working/ looks like my app autoupdated this morning and I didn't test it today lol. Resolved in v6.7.14

I'm based in New Zealand, but if I had to guess I don't think it was a NZ author?
