How Did An Australian Warship Block The Internet Across New Zealand Overnight?
Last Updated: Technology experts said the disruption started around 2 am, affecting internet connectivity and causing many small radio stations across New Zealand to go off air Wi-Fi and radio signals suddenly stopped working in many parts of New Zealand's North and South Islands on Wednesday morning, confusing residents since no technical faults or storms were reported. The disruption was later linked to the Australian warship HMAS Canberra, which was quietly moving towards Wellington. HMAS Canberra, one of the largest ships in the Royal Australian Navy, created significant interference with internet and radio signals from Taranaki to Marlborough due to its navigation radar operating on the same frequency as New Zealand's Wi-Fi and FM stations. Technology experts explained that the disruption began around 2 am, affecting internet connectivity and causing many small radio stations to shut down. Internet service providers had to disable their networks, and stations like Brian FM had to switch to backup systems. Matthew Harrison, managing director of New Zealand internet company Primo, said, 'This was not a normal technical glitch…this was the full power of military-grade radar." The Australian Defence Force (ADF) issued a statement acknowledging the interference and confirming that they immediately changed their radar frequency upon realising the issue, which restored normal service without prolonged interruption. Dan O'Grady, an officer from New Zealand's Radio Spectrum Department, noted that the affected frequency band is a shared spectrum used by the public for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Have a Galaxy phone? Samsung publishes tips on how to use it for longer
Let's be real, running out of phone battery in the middle of the day is one of the great inconveniences of modern life. Whether you're finding your way to some new brunch joint or in the middle of a heated group chat debate, your phone breaking down on you is less than convenient. But if you are using a Samsung Galaxy phone, the company has shared a few tips that can help you use the phone for a long time. Here are a few ways to stretch the life of your battery, and most don't even need a degree in electrical Dim that screen brightnessYour Samsung Galaxy's screen may be beautiful, but it's also a power-sucking beast. Turning down the brightness and minimising your screen timeout can make a big difference. Swipe from the top of your screen to pull down the brightness slider and slide it to the left. You can also make your display turn off faster when it's not in use; a 30-second timeout with Auto Brightness enabled is a good combination.2. Evict battery-draining appsStill clinging to apps you haven't opened since 2022? It's time to say goodbye. Background apps can silently drain your battery. Long-press on the app icon on your home screen and tap "Uninstall", or navigate to Settings > Apps to uninstall them in bulk. Can't uninstall it? Disable it is your next best option, particularly for recalcitrant pre-installed apps.3. Reconsider Always On displayadvertisement Samsung's Always On Display is convenient for glancing at the time or notifications, but it's also a subtle battery killer. Go to Settings > Lock screen > Always On Display to either turn it off entirely or make it show only at specific times.4. Cut the wireless chatterIf you're not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or GPS, turn them off. Each of these features regularly scans for connections, which eats up battery. Toggle them off via the pull-down quick settings menu.5. Switch to Power Saving ModeEnable Power Saving Mode to restrict background activity, dim the screen, and take a performance hit -- all for the greater good of your battery. Go to Settings > Device Maintenance > Battery to enable it manually or set it to activate automatically.6. Update software and watch syncingOld software may be a secret battery killer. Look for updates in Settings > About phone. Also, curb apps that sync constantly, such as email or social media. Have them sync less often or only when you refresh manually.7. Handle with careAvoid letting your battery run flat. Modern lithium batteries don't appreciate being fully discharged. Try to keep your charge above 20%. And if you're putting your device away for a while, store it at around 50% charge in a cool, dry place. No, the freezer doesn't count — it'll do more harm than good!8. Watch the signal strengthLow signal? Your phone will work overtime trying to connect, draining the battery. If you're in a weak coverage area, consider switching to Aeroplane Mode when not actively using the device.
