SpeedOf.Me VS wigle.net

This is a really good idea. For years I've wanted to know: - Which AirBNB hosts actually have a good "dedicated workspace". Criteria: at least a 30" deep desk, and a comfortable adjustable height office chair. - Which AirBNB rental units actually have fast internet. Ideal in a perfect world: Let me ping their router, or somehow get the airbnb host to visit https://speedof.me or a similar site, then upload the... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

After factory reset... When selecting Offline setup, it is possible to log in to the UDM.

By searching it in https://wigle.net. That ended the debate quite swiftly. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

IP gives you a rough location (like which city at best), SSID/BSSID can give you street/building level accuracy if it's in a database like https://wigle.net Considering the scale of these apps, I'm guessing they have internal wifi<->location databases with fairly great accuracy. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

There are also wardriving databases (like wigle.net) that have information about Wi-Fi networks detected by wardrivers all around the globe which may includes yours. Source: 5 months ago
