You’re in range of multiple transverses

but only connected to one AP

Transceivers *

So?

5G with bee multiple APs at once

no difference on the network layer

You still establish a connection with the best station

big difference on the tranceiver level

How do you think it figures out which the best station is?

It pings them all

Continuously

Because you’re mobile..

that is GSM; not wifi

wifi doesn't work that way as of yet

only 'cells' work that way

It happens on 3g and 4g as well

I’m not even talking about wifi

yes i know

That’s a separate protocol

but again we aren't talking mobile remeber

we are talking startionary

and thus wifi or lan

not GSM radio

So we’re not talking phones anymore?

no, we already agreed the gsm baseband

Ah good

but at the moment, they can't use radios from wifi aps to find a mac

they wil be able to do this with the 5g networrk even without gsm

even if you are just connected to the lan

because each AP can ping radio then network for a duplex ping

Your mac address won’t leave your router?

It’s not in the packets

yes i know

the mac is you, what they are looking for

the can find you using radio pings spacially or network traces

currently, they can't corealte both of these

but with 5g they will have a type of active sonar

Hmm, I don’t think so

the new equipment is a phased-array setup

the military has used the tech in a similar manner for decades

But the protocols being used haven’t changed..
