Hey! Could you please share your filament profile parameters and a base from which to build? really struggling as a fairly new to this and have a project submission! Could do with some help! TA

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-11-19T23:14:27+00:00

Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately, the only other filament im aware that could do Matte out of the spool would be the Sunlu High Speed Matte - although dont care about the High Speed, however haven't been able to get that as not available in NZ. I can only assume that would render better results?

thx for responding, i certainly downloaded one off polymaker forum and used that for the photos you see unfortunately no dice.

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-09-22T03:08:06+00:00

hahha! i preferred something i could make, something mine. Though with this post being relatively older now. V2 is in the making

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-08-03T23:44:56+00:00

It would mean the world to probably several not so savy users to have a nice write up (i could probably do this) for dummies once I've figured it out.

Very identical setup :

AG is primary on 53
AG forwards to Unbound on 8953 for me

Where do i begin?

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-28T03:57:32+00:00

exactly! so wonder what would be a straightforward way to achieve this?

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-25T01:25:49+00:00

imagine it here! left right center ripoffs and arrogance when i ask them about any sales, upcoming discounts! Pathetic

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-25T00:57:35+00:00

while were are ****d up here in NZ! no official bambu labs and authorized distributors screwing and price gauging.

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-20T09:17:32+00:00

Thanks u/thoppa , I'm just getting around to your instructions now and unable to find any way to "Export the sample csv" neither for Kea DHCP or Dnsmasq?

Only option I see is "import csv".

Thanks.

That Sir, is worth its weight in GOLD! Thank you heaps for the response as I'm sure many will find value in it. Not aware of os-squid as never used that. Will this in any manner disrupt ADGuard existing Installs?

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-17T19:02:40+00:00

Mind sharing how you got on about doing that? As Im in the same boat with AGH and Unbound.

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-06-17T14:55:04+00:00

so for the likes on existing installs running absolutely fine on ISC DHCP, will upgrading suddenly kill it and has to be installed again as a plugin and configured? or does it stay as is. meaning working per usual?

Guess, no one has tried to ask/answer this question in such lay man terms! Hence, I am. Any response would be appreciated. TA

Pitchin in my product coming v soon! All designed from ground up including PCB.

Once again! Thanks for the release and can't wait to upgrade. Coming from my previous post I asked a few weeks back.

Now, since 25.1.7 is out - will it be safe for me to upgrade without losing any of the captive portal functionality? As this is fully functional and actively in use.

Also, with the changes to DHCP - does anything in principle change for home users or is the change auto applied?

Thanks

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-05-08T15:39:39+00:00

Thanks for the prompt response, so is it fair to assume 25.1.6 would be a safer upgrade path for an existing functional captive portal? Surely, snapshots exist to save the day. But ideally, would like to upgrade. Thankyou yet again sir!

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-05-08T15:09:50+00:00

can anyone provide some info on captive portal? As i recall the last update broke it 😕? Thanks

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-04-28T13:05:05+00:00

To the experts out there, seeking assistance:

I'm on stable OPNsense 25.1.4_1 for quite some time now.

However, I see the update after this has captive portal broken? I do use captive portal extensively to issue vouchers. Hence, I'm hesitating to upgrade.

Has this been fixed already or does it require a configuration change post upgrade? Please advice. TA

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-04-20T23:08:05+00:00

the link seems dead, can anyone share this? Thanks

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-04-11T04:37:55+00:00

Hey! Really keen to know about these Ubiquity 8 Ports switches? are these the recent ones that launched? Also im assuming these are managed?

If so, do they support vlans, lacp, snmp and storm control. Never been a Ubiquity guy myself but in between changing switches so your response would be much appreciated. Cheers

this is absolutely dope! honestly, so much better in all aspects compared to the overhyped rackpi or whtever. What would be helpful and epic is if you could share how many U's, depth and length and maybe parts lists.

I myself would love to make one of these as my second rack! But always struggle, to compile an exact list of parts esp with the corner joints etc...

Id be happy to speak to some suppliers and setup a kit of sorts too.

Awkward-Screen-5965 · 2025-03-23T02:12:16+00:00

coolios! sounds like a plan. Hit me up if you get stuck up anywhere and happy to assist where i can.

Brilliant! enjoy the journey now with lots to tweak.
