Wavkong V2700 Wi-Fi 6 Router: Long-Range, Enhanced Coverage, and Cleaner Signals with RPU (Crowdfunding) – CNX Software

WavKong V2700 long range WiFi router

Installing a multi-node mesh network is one way to extend the range of your WiFi network, but the Wavkong V2700 Wi-Fi 6 router is said to remove that need, with the ability to provide 15,000 sq ft (about 1400 m2) of coverage from a single device. WavKong claims it’s possible thanks to the company’s Radio Processing Unit (RPU), a dedicated digital RF processing chip that continuously corrects signal distortion in real time using base-station-class Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) technology found in cellular infrastructure and satellite systems. WavKong V2700 specifications: SoC – MediaTek Filogic 820 (MT7981) dual-core Cortex-A53 processor @ 1.3 GHz System Memory – 256 MB RAM Storage – 128 MB flash Networking 4x Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports (1x WAN, 3x LAN) IEEE 802.11a/n/ac/ax WiFi 6 @ 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz; AX3000 router Channel bandwidth –  20/40/80/160 MHz WiFi security – WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA/WPA2, WPA3 Antennas – 2x 2.4 GHz […]

Meta Launches Parental Oversight for Teen AI Engagements

Meta has launched a new capability within its Family Center, enabling parents to gather information on the subjects their adolescents talk about with Meta AI across platforms such as Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook. This enhancement, which is available in the U.S., UK, Canada, Australia, and Brazil, seeks to improve parental supervision without supplying complete message transcripts. Instead, parents are given categorized labels like “School,” “Fitness,” or “Technology,” providing a summary of the discussions.

This initiative comes as Meta is facing backlash for its approach to teen safety, including a recent court order totaling $375 million concerning child exploitation. The company has experienced mounting pressure to illustrate responsible management of AI, prompting adjustments such as prohibiting teen access to celebrity-voiced AI characters.

The new Insights tab presents a list of up to 10 topics from the previous week, assisting parents in grasping the key themes of their teens’ AI interactions. Meta has also formed an AI Wellbeing Expert Council to ensure that AI responses are suitable for minors and has created conversation starters in collaboration with the Cyberbullying Research Center to promote discussions between parents and their children.

While advocacy organizations contend that this strategy shifts the burden of safety onto parents, it signifies progress toward monitored AI use for young people. The effectiveness of this feature in promoting improved family dialogues or leading to increased conflicts regarding screen time remains to be determined.
