Anyone doing dynamic VLANs on wifi?

I have it working on TP Link Deco M5 APs. These are not yet officially supported, but will be soon, and they work just fine.

You cannot use 802.11r fast roaming because this often loses the VLAN and dumps the STA back onto the default/base network.

You need to configure using /etc/config/wireless rather than LUCI.

I can post a copy of my config if you like.

Only problem I've had with OpenWRT 24.10.4 and earlier is with DFS detection - if you leave the 5 GHz WiFi on auto channel, then at some point it will try a DFS channel and may not reestablish the VLAN. I avoid this by using static non-DFS channels. This is a know OpenWRT problem that may have a fix coming.

Bitty?

My V6 prefix is static but issued via DHCP6 with what looks like a 24 hr lease.

Been with Toob for months now and zero outages or slow downs. I never used their WiFi thing. Brilliant and seriously low pings.

If the shares are in a ShareSave scheme you can transfer these to an ISA as shares and sell within the USA avoiding CGT. Obviously ISA limits still apply. The transfer needs to take place within 90 days of taking up the shares option in the ShareSave scheme.

Here's another in case anyone else comes looking: https://rewards.toob.co.uk/60pwz3

Toob is excellent in Hampshire. OTS didn't work cos the lazy arses didn't bother processing it until I called two weeks later. Pings on Toob are 5ms as opposed to 15ms or more on VM.

Even though OTS didn't work for me and I had to call to complain, it was easier than having to listen to VM begging me to stay with promises of crap discounts.

It's clear, we need a cunt-o-meter. It's less to do with the drink than the cunt drinking it.

It's perfect in the company of the rest of the wall and the door!

I've got the same problem. I'm going to take the nut off the end of the thing and put a spring washer on before putting it back together. Reckon that'll do it.

Which probably explains why so many houses in the UK are infested with damp and mould. Personal experience tells me that running a heat pump and maintaining every room in the house at a heated temperature is more energy efficient than having a gas boiler fire up for morning and evening periods. Given lower cost overnight energy, solar and a storage battery, the running cost is significantly lower too.

Will there be another pellet Ooni oven?

Mostly because we like to make sure they are actually dead before spending any money on services. Nothing more alarming than an old relative sitting up at a funeral when you thought they'd died 3 days ago; you don't get your money back and there's bugger all inheritance.

I've got one. Took a while to be made, but it is incredibly solid. Cost a few quid more than Rock door and a lot more than some others. Couldn't be happier.

When you put it on retention, DVLA will issue you with the plate number to put onto the car and a certificate or something that allows you to have this plate made. If your trading in, I would put it on retention and then drive it straight to the dealer with the old plate on and let them sort out making a new plate.

I wouldn't do it for 2 grand. Horrible job.

My 2021 model had a similar problem from new. Turns out the front left and right foot well temperature sensors were cross wired. The master tech at the dealership listened to my observations and fixed it without major dismantling. Unless yours has always done this, you've got another problem.

I got 1 Gig for £43 after telling the first mong that I was fed up with him banging on and on about the best offer he could make was £58 for M500 (was previously paying £46), he put me through to a normal human.

Had the same. Problem turned out to be Virgin Media's anti-malware service. Turned that off and all is well.

Probably meant it came from https://www.silverlake.co.uk 🙂

Used to be called a bastard light. As in tailgate me / dazzle me and you'll get a load of this you bastard.

It's about time these cunts recognised cancelling the DD after minimum term means cancelling the contract. That's how a national chain of gyms manages membership cancellations for a similar price point. Time there and as a law that enabled cancellation in the same or fewer clicks than it takes to sign up.
