regular version, recent revision. disabling wifi is a checkbox on the phone app not """extensive conversion is only for very capable hackers and has been done by only three people on our planet"""

English is not my native language, you might have taken me too literally. You have to be a very capable hacker to modify all the different Starlink firmware of all the chips involved. There are dozens of reasons to do that, unrelated from disabling WiFi.

And no, a GUI check box has little relation to what the hardware actually does.

> There are dozens of reasons to do that, unrelated from disabling WiFi.

You're moving goal posts now. If the stock firmware/software now allows disabling Wi-Fi, you don't need to hack the hardware.

And if you can't trust the stock firmware, i.e. you have reason to assume that it's actively malicious (e.g. by turning the Wi-Fi back on randomly), how can you trust the hardware? Who's to say that it doesn't, e.g., have an undocumented transponder feature that replies to a specific type of interrogation?

You measure and reverse engineer. That is what hackers should do.

>You're moving goal posts now.

I'd say you where interpreting my comments on hacking too narrowly.
