Network labeled with "Privacy Warning" from iOS device

So, this morning someone on my network came to me with their iphone flagging our network with a privacy warning. Here's an image that depicted what the user sees. https://preview.redd.it/sep43x9xcpt71.png?width=1034&format=png&auto=webp&s=447ff5905d355cf8b0329a3eb7432d7d5b65840e

I explained to the person that I am the one behind this, but... the message is still concerning to users that don't understand it. I see the potential for others to think something is misconfigured or blaming me for this message.

Is there a config to remove this warning?

I found this user demonstrates the same problem. https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/q90kot/ios_privacy_warning_ios_15_update/ but their issue doesn't resolve my issue.

WARNING: TURN OFF YOUR VPN! Read this guide to fix the "Stuck on Preparing Device" problem!

I've had a LIFX Z Strip for a few years. I recently moved and changed router, and was unable to pair the device again. After going insane for 3 hours, forever being stuck on "Preparing Device" while pairing my WiFI with LIFX Z Strip, I finally figured out the issue. It was a combination of a lot of small things that needed to be fixed.

This is a complete guide about all known LIFX WiFi solutions that are known to be necessary and which 100% work. It should be very helpful to anyone with connection issues!

Here's what you need to do, to give the LIFX devices the best setup:

Preparation

  1. Turn off your VPN on your Android/iOS device. This is THE most important fix. With the VPN connection enabled, I spent 3 hours failing to connect the lights to the internet. Turning the VPN off fixed the LIFX light connection instantly. I had tried 3 routers, several versions of the LIFX app, and tons of WiFi settings changes, and was ready to buy Philips Hue until I suddenly realized that the VPN on the phone was the last remaining potential problem. I hadn't thought of the VPN and it turned out to be the final thing preventing *pairing*. My VPN actually properly passes through all local network traffic and the lights *can* be controlled locally despite the VPN *after* the lights have been synced/added, but the *initial* adding/syncing *doesn't* work while the VPN is connected, so it's clear that the LIFX app makes incorrect network assumptions whenever a VPN is involved during onboarding, so keep that in mind. There are however other issues that you need to take care of too, below...
  2. Depending on your WiFi router, you MAY have to disable "band steering" on your router or alternatively split your WiFI into 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with separate names. As mentioned in many guides such as this great one, and in the official LIFX documentation (here), and in the LIFX app itself, the LIFX devices can only connect to 2.4 GHz. If you have the same SSID for 2.4 and 5, then your router is able to use a non-standardized feature known as "band steering" which will prevent certain devices (such as the LIFX lights) from connecting on the 2.4 GHz band (the only thing hte lights can connect to) if the router *believes* they're able to use the faster 5 GHz b

Anyone seeing "Unauthorised apps" warning after update? (Jailbroken device, jailbreak not loaded)

So BA had been exceptionally sensitive to device status where it's sensibly easier to cheat...

On android, for example, the app refuses to run when adb is connected.

On iOS, the app used to refuse to run when somewhat intrusive tweaks are loaded, such as FPS counters (but not auto-click scripts, interesting)

After today's update, it refused to run on my iPad, which had previously been jailbroken, but I have restarted my iPad (unloaded the jailbreak) and deleted the jailbreak app (unc0ver for anyone interested), then restarted again, to make the jailbreak history as undetectable as sensibly could.

It still refuses to start, claiming unauthorised apps are installed. I have no clue why. If anyone jailbroken have or have not seen this problem please share your experience.

Apologies for any inaccurate English expressions, this post is written by a non-native English speaker.

Warning: Please stop using Google Authenticator for your 2FA/TOTP. It has a bad reputation of locking people out of all of their accounts if something happens to the device. There are other better/safer options. Here is my overall advice.

This video hits the main points very well as to why you shouldn’t use Google Authenticator.

In the past few weeks we’ve seen a lot of users post devastating threads about being locked out of all of their Google Authenticator 2FA backed accounts once they reset/lost their phone. Don’t let this happen to you.

My suggestion moving forward with an authenticator is no matter what program you choose, make sure you've got a way to have a plaintext version of all of your TOTP seeds. No authenticator does everything though which really sucks.

The most popular options:

  1. Authy - Cross platform, backs up to the cloud, great support. Does not let you export your TOTP seeds. This is my top suggestion for most people.

  2. Aegis - Android only, lets you export TOTP seeds. Open source.

  3. OTP Auth - iOS only, lets you export TOTP seeds. Works great across all iOS devices.

You'll find lots of options out there, but unfortunately nothing that is open source, cross-platform, and lets you export seeds. There is a github workaround for being able to export your Authy TOTP seeds but it takes a few steps.

Whatever you do though, do not use Google Authenticator. It has a bad history of locking you out completely if you lose your device (1, 2, 3). Some say it has changed now, but don't take the chance when there are so many alternatives out there that have been great for years.

Microsoft Authenticator isn't bad but I've got some concerns over privacy and security behind Microsoft in general. It’s not a bad option though and my next choice after Authy.

There’s also the option of keeping your TOTP seeds on Bitwarden and having it generate your codes (premium account required). It’s a debated issue but personally I don’t recommend it.

Is there a way to mute/disable Siri β€œdevice slow to respond” warning?

I’m looking for a Homekit, Homebridge, or even a HTTP-switch plug-in work around/fix if possible.

I decided to post here first.

I am using the Homebridge http-switch plug to create a button in the Home app to initiate a sequential 10 individual url calls with a 3 second delay in between each call. This takes 30 seconds to complete.

The button works perfectly.

However, since it takes 30 seconds to complete the action, Siri always says β€œyour device is slow to respond”.

Is there a work around to let Siri know the action will take longer than normal and she doesn’t have to give me a warning?

Warning - Disable "Wifi" if your devices are connected via ethernet cable

I just installed 5 NEW SONOS amps, Arc, and a few subs on a home network with in-ceiling speakers, home theater TV, eero wireless devices, CenturyLink fiber gigabit ethernet. It all worked great EXCEPT that the network and internet crashed for 5 minutes every 60 minutes, almost like clockwork. I tried debugging this over a period of many days. Disconnected a bunch of devices. Replaced cables. Updated firmware. Reset the modem. But the problem kept occurring. Super annoying and frustrating. It turns out the problem was that my SONOS devices were plugged in to ethernet cables (for better reliability and speed) AND had their "wifi" capability enabled - which is the default configuration for SONOS devices. I believe this was causing some kind of "network storm" or "broadcast storm" or "loop". I did some googling and found other people who had similar issues, usually from years ago. As soon as I disabled "Wifi" using the SONOS app for every SONOS device, the problem went away and my network has been up and running without problem for 12 hours.

I'm going to report this to SONOS support. I believe their default configuration should disable Wifi when an ethernet cable is connected. Or they should have some very prominent information in their app or setup materials to warn you of this potential problem. Or they should update their software to prevent these network storms or whatever they are. I don't believe my setup is that unusual. Their hardware and software seems very user-friendly, but this is a case where they make it too easy to fall into a pit of despair.
