Your wording is off, for starters where is your router in this setup?  Modem is not a router, if this device connected to the cloud is a modem/router combo then its called a "gateway"

 

And would not use the term route for a connection from one switch to another switch.  Unless your talking a layer 3 switch that is doing routing between segments?  And really you have fiber line that connects to your switch?  Or does that connect to your gateway that changes it to ethernet?

 

You have that AP between your modem and switch - is that really your router?  And you have an actual "modem" ?  Where does it change from public IP to private in this drawing?

That's my point wording is wrong ;)

 

AP is not a "router"  So that should be labled "wireless router".

 

And there is not need of mention of "route" to second switch.. Its a given that your switches are connected, if your not "routing" on layer 3 switches then don't use that term.

Rework the layout of the cables so they don't cross over each other.

 

I take it your fishing for network changes - like what you have 1 network segment and couple of switches..  What do you think you could change there?

    • WhatsApp document scanning gets closer to launch as more beta testers get access

      By zikalify · Posted

      WhatsApp document scanning gets closer to launch as more beta testers get access by Paul Hill Meta looks as though it’s getting closer to releasing WhatsApp’s native document scanner on Android because more people are now reporting they have access in the beta. This will give users a privacy-friendly way to snap photos of documents and automatically convert them to PDF ready for sharing. According to WABetaInfo, the feature comes with two modes: manual and automatic. The manual capture gives users more control over the process allowing them to adjust positioning and lighting to get the best quality scan. Automatic mode on the other hand automatically detects the edge of your document on its own and snaps the image without too much user input, making it faster and easier. Once the picture is taken, WhatsApp automatically converts it to a PDF file so that it can be shared and opened easily by the recipient. The file can be sent within private chats or group conversations. The entire scanning and conversion process takes place locally on your device, using Android’s built-in API for snapping documents. The document itself is also only stored locally until you decide to send it. Just like other WhatsApp messages, these scans are secured with end-to-end encryption when you send them to recipients. The only privacy risk is the user sending the PDF to the wrong person. The new feature was first noticed for Android a few weeks ago and with the latest beta it’s rolling out to more people. Once Meta has tested it across a wide array of devices, we will likely see it land for people on the stable version of WhatsApp. In recent weeks, we have also seen that Meta is testing new chat color themes in the beta releases. That feature doesn’t seem to have filtered down to the stable version yet, so be on the lookout for that too if that’s of interest to you.

      Silly, illinformed comment but thanks for playing anyway. I mean, are you actually comparing a default browser on well over a billion devices with Firefox?
