Show HN: Undocumented Qualcomm mesh topology 802.11 frames
Netgear Orbi WiFi 7 nodes broadcast a Qualcomm vendor IE (8C:FD:F0) in every beacon that contains the parent node's MAC address. I caught a live star-to-daisy-chain reroute and confirmed it against three APIs. Undocumented, not in Wireshark, field map and open questions in the post.<p>Pretty neat: you can see the whole layout without even being associated to any of the APs!
This is a technical discovery and reverse-engineering project rather than a commercial startup, offering high technical utility for niche networking tools but lacking a business model. While the insight into undocumented Qualcomm frames is impressive, it represents a feature or a research finding rather than a scalable investment opportunity.
