      5G, how available is it in the US?

      It is only available as marketing fluff and lies currently.

      That's what I would have thought.

      I watched a tech guy on Youtube about 3 months back. He had a 5G phone in a 5G area.

      He stood next to a 5G antenna/aerial/repeater thing and the speed was incredible. He then stepped around the corner of the building he was standing out the front of and the signal died.

      That demo showed me that this tech has a very long way to go before it's useful on a wide scale.

        I don't see 5G as that useful for mobile - Point to point - sure, as an alternative to home based internet - again, sure.

          @siringo I have heard similar stories where Verizon deployed it in the NFL stadiums and it does not cover the entire stadium. Any obstruction kills the signal.

              Yeah, the real high speed is only available with the new signaling, which is in a high enough frequency band to be almost line of site only.

                  When securing SSH with Public/Private Keys, do i need to generate "Keys" for every person that will login?
                  Or can we "Share" a common key.

                  I'm locking down some Linux Servers over the next few weeks, they are all internal servers and not accessed remotely via the internet. I'm the main person that will log in via SSH mainly to run updates and change the odd config file, but i want to check if i need to give other users SSH access.

                    You CAN share a common key. Dont. Its the same as sharing a password. Defeats so many security basics.

                      Not actual 5G. We work with operators and Huawei is the only actual 5G equipment out still. So no deployment in the US is actual 5G. Its all older, lower tech with just high speeds. More like wifi. So any demo you are seeing might be really fast, but it is a different tech than 5G.

                        5G uses a lot of frequency bands. So not constrained in that way.

                          You may want to create a post about this. It could make for a good conversation about SSH key usage in different situations.

                          Plus, I have pondered the same type of question.

                            Generate multiple sets, one for each person who could end up needing access. It's a trivial task to do and it ensures you know "who" logged in and when.

                                Is it normal to use the same key over many servers at a user level? or a different key for each server for each person?

                                    Common for users to have one key that they use for many servers.

                                          I too was a PDE in my youth.

                                            That's what I would have thought.

                                            I watched a tech guy on Youtube about 3 months back. He had a 5G phone in a 5G area.

                                            He stood next to a 5G antenna/aerial/repeater thing and the speed was incredible. He then stepped around the corner of the building he was standing out the front of and the signal died.

                                            That demo showed me that this tech has a very long way to go before it's useful on a wide scale.

                                            Yeah, the real high speed is only available with the new signaling, which is in a high enough frequency band to be almost line of site only.

                                            5G uses a lot of frequency bands. So not constrained in that way.

                                            Uh, duh. Read what I said again. It's the newly available and still upcoming frequency bands that provide the big speedups, and are also very limited in coverage areas. Of course it can still run on the same frequencies that have been in use, but you don't get much, if any, speed advantage over 4G.
