ASUS Wireless Utility Mac Crashing - osx-snow-leopard

I purchased an ASUS usb wireless device, installed the provided application for my mac pro 10.6.8. I plug in the key, it discovers networks, but when I'm trying to connect to any of them the application just crashes. I contacted ASUS with the problem, however I thought maybe someone here can help decode the apple error report so I can solve this issue and get back online.
Bellow is the error:

I have the same problem. The only solution I have is to the wps tab and connect via the PBS button, remembering to press the wps button on your router. This only works if you can actually access the router and would be no use in coffee shops etc.
The device can access open networks - there is clearly a bug in trying to access secure networks.

Run ReactJS based application on ipad Mini

I have created a React Application with multiple frontends, I need to run that on my ipad Mini so that I can demo that it works on it. How can I do it, please advise?
I have tried using the IP configuration but to no avail.
First solution (approximate)
You can open such a view called device mode in a browser (chrome example). But keep in mind: This is only intended as a first-order approximation of how your page would look and feel like on another device. It is just being simulated and not guaranteed to be exactly the same. Chrome does support iPad Mini previews.
Second solution (accurate)
You would need to use your computers IP address in your local network and make sure that your device is on the same network as your computer.
On Linux and Mac you can check your IP with ifconfig and ipconfig on Windows. Once you know the IP address of your computer and your react dev server is running on port 3000 you can access your app with:
http://{IP_ADDRESS}:3000

Any hope for turning on phone Nokia 7.1 using adb

My power button died on my phone. Or got less and less responsive. Last time I was lucky that trying a long time I managed to start up my phone. Since then I kept my phone on perpetually or restarting it if that was required. However, now my phone just suddenly turned off out of nowhere. I tried to turn it on again but had no luck. I had previously turned on USB debugging since I thought that was enough to turn it on from the pc if it ever got turned off. Now it seems that was not enough as it shows up as unauthorized in adb (I never tried actually connecting, very stupid on my part). Is there any hope for turning my device on through adb.
Phone: Nokia 7.1
There are some questions on problems with unauthorized devices (ADB Android Device Unauthorized) but those seem to assume I can still turn on my phone to change settings. Is it impossible otherwise?
tldr; Here is a detailed list of instructions if you want to try your luck with fastboot. Your touchscreen and volume buttons must be functional for this to work.
Make sure the phone is turned off.
Press and hold the Volume Down button. Don't release it.
Plug in a USB charging cable
When the screen turns on and shows a message saying "Download" or "Fastboot" mode, release the Volume Down button.
Charge your phone like this for 2 minutes, to make sure it has enough charge.
Move your phone's USB cable and connect it to a PC.
Download the binary for fastboot.
Run fastboot continue.

How to let a raspberry pi 3b connect to wifi with wps from within a c program

I have a machine controlled by a raspberry pi. For servicing I want to connect the local wifi network. The machine has no controls with which you could enter ssid and password. With a combination of button pushes a connection to the wifi must be made.
In my program I have the following code:
void start_Wps(void) {
if (!fork())
execl("wpa_cli","-i","wlan0","wps_pbc", NULL);
}
If I start my program from a ssh terminal it works most of the time. However when I let my code start from rc.local the rpi never connects to my wifi network.
In case your project shall work in an enterprise environment, can you be sure that WPS is supported on the client’s access points?
Another thing to consider: WPS is in decline. It is not supported e.g. in Android since Android 9, WPA3 security won’t be supported by WPS and its successor has already been presented by Wi-Fi Alliance.
It is called “Wi-Fi Easy Connect” and it basically is a device provisioning protocol that also allows the connection of “headless” device, i.e. without display or input. You could connect your mobile phone to the Wi-Fi network on the customer’s premise, read the QR code that you previously put on your machine and then the phone takes care of connecting the machine to the network.
More detailed information is provided on Wi-Fi Alliance’s website: https://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/wi-fi-easy-connect
If you want to make sure that your project is future-proof and will be maintainable for years to come, you might want to look into that.

USB keeps disconnecting...only for mobile devices

Very strange issue, no results that I could find from google searches.
I am running Windows 7 64 bit. Everything Windows related is up to date, and so are all USB drivers. My computer is a laptop from Puget Systems.
My computer has three USB inputs; one USB 2.0, and two USB 3.0s. 2.0 versus 3.0 doesn't really matter though, because this issue happens with all three drives.
Heres the issue: When connected, USB devices are found, and recognized. 5-30 sec later, they disconnect, only to reconnect in a couple seconds. The cycle of disconnecting/reconnecting continues indefinitely. I have not been successful with keeping USB devices connected for more than ~30 seconds.
At this point, it could be any number of things causing this issue. But this is where it gets weird. This issue ONLY happens with mobile devices, and it happens with ALL mobile devices. By mobile devices I mean phones and iPods. I have tested my Samsung Galaxy S4, an iPod Classic, an iPod touch, an iPod nano, a Droid Turbo, and an iPhone 5. This issue occurred with all of these devices. The issue did NOT occur at all with my 2TB Seagate backup harddrive, my 1TB WD harddrive, several USB pen drives, my external keyboard, or my wireless mouse USB receiver that is plugged in nearly 24/7 in my USB 2.0 drive. My Xbox One controller disconnected 3 times in a row once, but that only happened once so it might have been a fluke...?
Anyways, what could be the reason for this strangely specific issue? Does anyone have any answers or has anyone experienced something similar?
Improper drive installation? Make sure your drivers are installed correctly. Try uninstalling and reinstalling them. If this does not work try to see if it is your USB cable or mobile device's port. (Test by altering to charge the device from a wall adapter) It could also be your computers port but you said in the title that it is only happening for mobile devices.
Reinstall the drivers to the devices you are having problems with. (Oh someone beat me too it.)

As a working-traveler, is there a way to get around port 80 blockage without touching the router?

I work while traveling at the moment. I'm at the point where I want to start setting up the paypal integration, but I can't because I can't open port 80 up so that paypal sandbox can communicate with my computer. I've tried getting my own USB modem w/ sim card (data plan) but it seems they are really aggressive with blocking ports on those also.
So, i can't get to the routers in the hotels since it would be wrong (and i don't have the passwords).
Is there some kind of trick that I can use so I can mess with paypal sandbox integration? I've tried using hosting (godaddy) but it's awful slow to keep uploading changes to a host just to see if what you did worked (not to mention problems with debugging).
Looks like i didn't get any help this time, but i found a way around it! I created a VPN in Windows 7 in my home network (so my work laptop can connect back home). I checked the setting that allows remote vpn connections to pick their own IP address so my work laptop would have a static ip.
I then simply opened up port 80, and forwarded it to the static IP set for my laptop. I can't believe it, but it works!
