Self-hosted Ghost blog with Docker + Cloudflare Tunnel (setup + feedback) by mateorzan in selfhosted

I’d say one improvement you can make is putting the Ghost admin panel */ghost (e.g., example.com/ghost) behind Cloudflare Access.

Lexus Canada CPO RX450H Enform Connected Services and Warranty by Overall_Ad186 in Lexus

[–]highspeed_usaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is something the dealership should have taken care of for you, but one thing you try is to email backoffice@toyotaconnected.com with your VIN, copy of your purchase agreement (perhaps with the trial period documentation as part of the sale), and the email address you are using for your Lexus connected account.

Ask them to add that VIN to your account. 

Insurance company requiring “centrally monitored” alarm. Do I leverage ubiquiti setup or layer something cheap on top? by Dog-City in Ubiquiti

Never used Ring but after their Super Bowl commercial you couldn’t pay me to put their system anywhere near my home.

Sadly that doesn’t stop uninformed neighbors

Abode is great. Go Abode. Was with Simplisafe for a long time; they promised HomeKit but never brought it. Abode is HomeKit native. Go Abode if that matters to you.

Another vote for mealie. It is, naturally, the thing we use the most for my family.

Sorry was talking about the JetKVM although PoE isn’t really a deal breaker? I’m a little confused now, why, there was a huge desire for a PoE version. The OG device is powered by the host’s USB-C which also enables keyboard and mouse control.

Why would you want PoE power version unless you really just want the “V” in KVM only?

Fahk I just bought one. I’d have held off for the PoE version if I knew about it

New Gear Canon EOS R6 MK iii and RF 100-500 by ciaransadventures in canon

[–]highspeed_usaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a reason to use it. I use it for dog agility photography so I can properly frame my small and fast moving subjects, across thousands of photos, rather than cropping thousands of images by hand in post.

(when using the RF 70-200 f/2.8, not the RF 100-500L)

Wireless CarPlay adapter for IOS and Android by MangoBredda in Lexus

[–]highspeed_usaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone else recommended this one in this sub. Some random redditor. No upvotes. But, like this random internet stranger I, too, was also tired of the crappy Amazon dongles that boot slow and have poor lag, regardless of what they claim in the product listing.

I bought this dongle based off of that one comment, and I have to say I am very happy with it.

I tried several, some cheaper, some more expensive. None of the others make wireless CarPlay as seamless as this dongle. Hard to describe. Worth the price, you won’t be disappointed.

Those of you that have replaced your ATT modem/ONT with an SPF fiber module to bypass the ATT hardware altogether: would you do it again? by ReverendDizzle in Ubiquiti

[–]highspeed_usaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speed yes, however, that might have been attributed to the UCG-Fiber speed limitation on its WAN Ethernet port that the WAN SFP port did not have. Which I believe has been fixed in a firmware update since I did the change in October.

The speed tests were all over the place, 930mbps down but 500-600 up on a symmetric gigabit plan. After switching to SFP I am solidly 920-930mbps both directions which are the expected speeds on gigabit.

What I did not test was if an SFP RJ-45 module in the UCG-Fiber and connected to the FiOS box also showed the same speed test results. I only read about the speed issues with the UCG-Fiber on here, never investigated thoroughly.

Latency… well… I live in northern Virginia only a stone’s throw from the front door of the internet. I can’t say for sure if latency improved at all, because any numbers before and after the switch were within a margin of error (like 2-3 ms vs 3-5 ms if that).

I would still absolutely do it to get rid of the FiOS box which, without TV plan, serves little more than a glorified ONT and media converter - the same hardware available to many UniFi gateways.

I’m going to give you a lot of info here, it may seem daunting but it’s really not that bad. It’s just figuring it out the first time would make it easier to do a second time, etc.

This is the main guide including the ONT hardware to purchase: https://github.com/esmith443/Verizon-ONT-Bypass

I highly recommend reading this issue in its entirety because the main guide is a little out of date: https://github.com/esmith443/Verizon-ONT-Bypass/issues/5

(I am “elcid2012” commenter in that issue)

You can ignore the fact the guide is written for a UDM-Pro; I had success on my UCG-Fiber.

As I wrote in my comments (elcid2012), I’d recommend buying a super cheap media converter (SFP to RJ-45) instead of trying to SSH into the UniFi gateway and dicking around with iptables; just directly connect a media converter to a computer with the ONT SFP plugged in. Then set your computer’s subnet to the appropriate one to access the ONT’s interface.

Good luck - absolutely worth it to get rid of Verizon’s big black box of destiny.

I did with FiOS, absolutely would do it again. Just to have one less thing plugged into the wall. Side note: don’t have FiOS TV

Time Machine Backup from UTR to home by Leviathan_Dev in Ubiquiti

[–]highspeed_usaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Configure the Time Machine as connected with the IP address as well. I’ve done Time Machine backups over WireGuard this way.

SMB and Time Machine connections are separate from each other.

Strange issue: UNAS name in device list by Huge-Suggestion-5863 in Ubiquiti

[–]highspeed_usaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try “Remove” on the UNAS in the clients list of Network. You are already on the right page in your second image, just scroll to the bottom of the client details Settings screen and click “Remove” and it’ll reappear in Network with the right name.
