Hi
So I'm planning on spending some time in a different country and work from there.
So I need to hide the location. Laptop is a HP elitebook with win 11.
IP hide solution idea, using a GL iNet router and setup a wireguard server in order to use the home internet.
https://docs.gl-inet.com/router/en/3/tutorials/wireguard_server/
Would this work as i intend?
Wifi localisation. I'm not sure if I can just turn of wifi an call it a day. An update or something it might turn it back on. Windows if not the employer will try any way to get the location I assume.
I have a USB dongle that allows me to use lan cable directly from the GL iNet router.
I could also just open it up and disconnect the wifi module /antenna cables.
Bloutooth might be an issue?
Anything else?
Edit , thanks for the replies . I can add that USB is somewhat restricted , a flashdrive won't work however my USB to Ethernet works , the dongle have other ports as well, the USB there won't work haven't tried the different sdard slots. So I am assuming that it's a software mod to deny storage only.
Checked out pikvm , seems cool but I don't think it will work.
Also fuck what shit is hard on a teltonika router EOL 2 years ago. Thought I knew shit :)
Interestingly, it does look like you can monitor and change bios settings using PowerShell; however, I'm not sure someone would go through the effort to actually monitor those settings. Endpoints like a laptop are disposable to a large enough organization. They do not want to baby the devices and micromanage each one of them, if troubleshooting an issue is going to take longer then just replacing the device, they'll likely just replace it. Getting into the weeds of monitoring the bios of every end point for changes just seems like a huge waste of time. However, I could see them password protecting the UEFI, in which case cracking open the device and disconnecting the Wi-Fi module is your best bet. I doubt they'll be monitoring for that as well. Opening the device shouldn't raise any hairs because people already beat the shit out of their devices as it is.
