The camera is just for audiovisual recording of evidence on the scene, while the RF monitors, WLAN (A/B/G) scanners, et cetera, are for bug detection, AP/Ad Hoc/WiFi hijacking and sniffing, and so on. It's a lot of fun, if you're into that kind of geek stuff like I am. Going back to your original point, however, I do have to agree that Plesk upgrades are a nightmare, and I've been doing Linux server administration for well over a decade now. It's so non-standard and yet still intertwined that it makes even the simplest system modifications (PHP recompilations, for example) turn into a day-long project sometimes.... and sometimes longer, with downtime and loss of hair thrown in for good measure! -- Daniel P.
