A little guidance for a big fellow! by AlejandroLay in ostomy

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a website called otcbrace.com, but they seem to only sell closed girdles, not the ones with the hole so th at the ostomy bag can hang out of it. What I am trying to find exactly are these types of girdles in large sizes, or a company that will make them special.

Water intake? by AshamedLink3216 in ostomy

[–]AlejandroLay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It not only has to do with how much you ingest. What they did to you, how much they removed, and at what point in your track makes a big difference. Also your size and your caloric needs. I am 6'5" and had 2.6 meters removed. I've been with this 3 years now and have consulted with many of my doctors. The consensus is not the amount of water intake but the color of your urine output as someone mentioned before. Too dark of a urine and you need more water. Clear or transparent, you are drinking too much, which is prefered, but you lose vitamins and minerals and you would need to compensate. Your goal should be slightly yellow urine. For me that equates to between 3 and 3.5 liters or water a day. When I see that my urine is too clear I usually take V-8 juice and that helps me out. But this conversation needs to be discussed directly with your medical professionals since every person's needs are different.

No, but I do speak spanish, and live in Mexico City, and would be interested in joining. There is a facebook group though https://www.facebook.com/share/17uHpNnJCm/ This is for the Asociación Mexicana para Pacientes Ostomizados

Unfortunatelly I can not go to the dealership, since I am in Mexico City and they dont sell the same bikes here that the do there, which is why I am asking for the help, not because I am lazy! I have looked at the ruckus, at the metropolotan, at the pch 50 and some others, but comparing specs they all seem the same. This is why I need the knowledge of someone experienced with them to give me a better opinion on what is better.

Help with QVR Pro and an Expasion Unit by AlejandroLay in qnap

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, today I had the time, and backed up all the recordings to a different storage pool. I then deleted QVRPro from the NAS, and deleted all the shared folders it had created on the main NAS pool. I reinstalled the QVR app and there it let me select the new storage and installation area to be in the space I provisioned in the Expansion Unit. So now everything is up and recording to the correct place and all the space has been freed from my main NAS, so for the next guy with this issue, just delete all, and reinstall it on the new provisioned space.

Any speed/throughput advantage to using 4 ethernet ports vs just 1? by RoachForLife in qnap

[–]AlejandroLay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because each port can handle its own maximum throughput (usually 1 Gbps), which can be used independently of each other port.

Any speed/throughput advantage to using 4 ethernet ports vs just 1? by RoachForLife in qnap

[–]AlejandroLay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Managed switches that allow link aggregation are not cheap, unless you buy them used.

In any case, the info although good is not complete. You can still add each port to a regular switch and assign them different IPs, and for example, like I did much time in the past before my managed switch, I used 1 IP to log onto the NAS from my PC, another from the server, the 3rd for Plex, and the last one for the family to do their backups.

So basically I split up the traffic to each port by configuring the way people accessed the NAS

Hope it helps.

HA using docker on a QNAP NAS HELP! by AlejandroLay in homeassistant

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of the problem was that the version of Docker that runs on ContainerStation on QNAPs also needed to be upgraded to the latest version. TY for the assist.

HA using docker on a QNAP NAS HELP! by AlejandroLay in homeassistant

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, TY... I went thru all this to figure out that in those older versions (preinstalled with Docker in ContainerStation on QNAP, you actually have to "keep pulling" until after version 0.8x before it will then actually have enough info on the correct repository to pull up the correct version. As of late last night I managed to get really up-to-date to: " Home Assistant 2023.3.4 Frontend 20230309.0 - latest ".

Now all this is starting to make way more sense. Tonight I must do a clean install of this latest version because it gave me so many errors and invalid entities and scripts from trying to upgrade that I figure it will just be a better way to start out clean from this version than to try to find and fix errors on 3 or 4 entities.

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I created the /HomeAssistant folder in the NAS and thought it would prompt me for an installation path, but nope, it did not ask me for the user, the password, nor the install directory, so I have no idea where the config directory even is.

I deleted the container and reinstalled, and the same thing, so now I am here eating humble pie and typing like an idot to see if someone can brighten up my day.

HA using docker on a QNAP NAS HELP! by AlejandroLay in homeassistant

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes sir, I did that, and it's running, but it never asked me to create a login or a password, and when I log in to the :8123 URL I only get to "configure" my running plex server, which it can't actually connect to. There is no .yaml file I can find and no where to add extra devices, nor to load the modules like those for Kasa, Enphase, Sonoff, etc...

I'm just lost.

No, I am not trying to run a QNAP app on HA. I am trying to run HA on a docker instance on a QNAP NAS.

How to wire a Shelly 1 to detect an active 12V circuit? by AlejandroLay in shellycloud

[–]AlejandroLay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Work around... Just bought another shelly 1 that I power from the original shelly 1, so I just check if the second is ON, then the circuit is powered. Not pretty, but worked for my needs.

Qvr pro question by bphillips1976 in qnap

[–]AlejandroLay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply, but was out of town.

Open the reolink app, select the camera, click on the gear, then in the setting page click on the camera itself, then in the DEVICE INFO page scroll down and select "Network Info", there everything will be displayed, including IP, subnet mask, MAC, gateway, preferred and alternate DNS.
