^ the answer. any purpose built mesh system should stream your access seamlessly, extenders won’t.
If you aren’t using a purpose built mesh system, there’s your answer (apologies for the addition cost for having to buy a mesh system)

I know people who have had fires in their apartments, I have seen news reports on tv and the internet, there are entire subsections of literature giving excruciatingly grand detail of historical fires throughout time. You know, proof that a thing happened, and investigation of why and how it happened.
What I have not seen any proof of, at any time, from any source, is a mass infection of consumer grade smartphones which would have been prevented by ongoing timely security updates. Not one. Rien. Bubkas. What I am seeing a lot of is people convinced that a warning is as good as an experience which has been studied and learned from. What I’m seeing without fail in this thread are people so jammed up with “could” and “possibly” but no “here’s what we learned from this exploit being detonated in the wild, and here’s the reason it happened”.
I like your fire analogy, I’m worried about fires, I’ve seen the results. The same can’t be said about not getting ongoing manufacturers security updates for smart phones.
aha, the old, i know it happened, i just can’t produce any real proof of it happening, anywhere, to anyone, at any time. got it. well, shit, i’m convinced, guess you shouldn’t use that Pixel 4a then. question answered, problem solved. be well.
and again, not being a sea lion, as sea lions request others to research easily identifiable information, which my posit is precisely the oposite of, i’ve asked if there ever has been a smart phone vulnerability like a botnet/virus campaign that has ever been actually pushed out to smart phones, anywhere, at any time, any where due to the ending of manufacturers security updates, and again, i’ve yet to be presented with any evidence it has (only that it could be). so, not knowing of one personally (which in no way means it hasn’t happened, just that i don’t know about any such occurance) i put it to the comment section, and having been replied to almost a dozen times now with “vulnerabilities” i’ve yet to be presented with an actual infection case. not one.
ok, i browsed through that, and again, am not seeing where it actually was deployed and affected end users, just a breakdown of how it could, and what i’ve continually been requesting, wondering about is if a botnet/virus campaign has ever been actually pushed out to smart phones, anywhere, at any time, due to the ending of manufacturers security updates, and again, i’ve yet to be presented with any evidence it has (only that it could be)
sure, able to be exploited, show where it has, in small groups, or large, ever, for any smart phone, ever
sure, could lead to, show where it has, in small groups, or large, ever, for any smart phone
you do not want to have to depend on it for an EVA
cheers for that, but all i see on that list is a whole bunch of “this could lead” and “there’s a possibility”, not any widespread outtages of breaches of entire product lines, like we have seen in the past with botnets and viruses in the pc world. i’m all for precaution, but again, i can’t think of a time there’s been a worldwide, or even nationally localized, smart phone infection across a brand or product line due to the ending of regular security updates, and i’d be interested if anyone knew if there ever has been.
what i’m thinking is, while it’s best practice to have manufacturers/phone company os gui security updates for any smart phone in use, it’s not the end of the world if there aren’t. i could be wrong, but “this could lead” and “there’s a possibility” is warning, not proof or anything at all
when was the last time you heard of an older model smart phone model or line becoming so insecure due to the lack of ongoing “operating system” or “manufacturers security updates”, off the top of my head I can’t think of one
all this is understood, but the access is what’s paramount, not the state of the media

the more a fingerprint reader “allows” for oil, cuts, and any other change to the fingerprint it has stored, the more it becomes useless. the fingerprint is the key, the more the tech lets the lock change and morph the more insecure the lock becomes, and the more it will allow just about any key to work in it.
