Hello! Awesome forum, thanks for the help everyone. I’m noticing the messages below repeatedly in my log. I’m using a T-Mobile SIM with the embedded modem. Plugged into a 110v power outlet in the US, using the OEM power adapter. Overall the connection is stable and working, so this doesn’t seem to be a problem, but wanted to confirm if there is anything wrong here. Thank you!

Hi datumly:

The log you showed that wifi received some ‘Probe data frame’ that do not comply with the IEEE 802.11 specification.

Are there any IOT devices around you?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info. I am staying at a home that does have some IOT devices. I’m not sure which one might be doing this though. Once I leave here I’ll double check that this error is no longer occurring. Glad to hear it shouldn’t be anything to worry about.

Thank you!
