Oh sorry, just realized now, that youve already fixed the issue in more recent versions. Nethertheless, great app

Hi, I really like your homezone.app, but there is one serios thing bugging me. When homezone is turned on, I get constant laggs every 5 seconds. I think it is the refreshperiod und my ping jumps from 64ms to 1300ms. You may check it yourself. Terminal -> ping something and then see what happens.

On my MacBook it wont work after I waked it up. In this case Home Zone says “SSID not available”, but it is.
I would also like to see that it could do Apple Scripts.

Maybe make it scriptable? So those of us with Adium can control which accounts try to start up with different points? Darn paranoid security guys…leaving only MSN open…

Nice app. I just downloaded it . Gives hope for the chance to be lazy and secure at the same time.

I would love to choose more than one network: home + office.

Thank you very much for the initiative and the result! Keep going!

Works for me. My home network is invisble too and Home Zone picked it up.

Really nice idea.

I’d love more control over what it controls. I’d like to see it set some keychains to autolock etc.

And another thing would be, being able to only use a specific network if the machine is actually using it (and maybe if the mac address of the ap is right) – because otherwise an attacker could fake a network (named ‘dreamind’ in my case) and thus disabling the screensaver password even when I’m not at home.

Just noticed another thing, maybe HomeZone should enable password protection again, when quitting it (even if the “trusted” network is availible).

would love to see a version of homzone that is able to work with formerly used wlan networks. unfortunately all my networks are with invisible SSID and cause of that i canÂ´t use it. nevertheless good idea would be very helpful. keep going,
