Damn the meshtastic network here grew. With 7 hops limit I got almost 200 nodes seen over last night.

The little Meshtastic node inside of my ThinkPad T420s is surprisingly good (one of the antennas measured quite well for the frequencies used, so I wired it in. I assume it was meant for GNSS? Or UMTS?).

After managing to hack together a way to flash my ThinkPad T420s from libreboot back to the stock BIOS (but modified to enable more options and disable all kinds of allowlists IBM/Lenovo like to have), I can now run Windows 7 on it.
