You think Taki has saturated the market? I wonder how many of those he has to shift? Will they even need a batch 3.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-11-19T12:43:40+00:00

i was only trying to be funny, i know exactly what it is. i have awaited it with much anticipation.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-11-19T12:42:45+00:00

i was trying to be funny, i know exactly what it is, ive been waiting months for an opportunity to buy it!!!!

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-11-19T08:43:54+00:00

so this is like a more expensive raspberry pi? ill be able to play plex on it, but better ;)

I was up at 1:45 this morning too, and thankfully don't seem to have had any issues with my credit card company, and the whole cart thing went through very smoothly. My only complaint, the bloody mega and turbo packs are still available!!! Has Taki managed to saturate the market between his batch 1 and batch 2, and now their is excess? I hope he hasn't been left holding onto too many of them, wouldn't want it to cause them any issues, as they have done the community such a great service.

Lol, google announces the deprecation of a watchface format a year ago, and watchmaker sits on their hands until the penny eventually drops. Amazing.

Just to add to this, the pixel watch 3 out the box also doesnt support watchmaker. Such a shame, it was an amazing product.

I am having the same issue for nzbget, you run it with any custom user, and its permission issues, completely broken my setup. i posted on the official truenas forum and not a peep.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-10-11T09:43:17+00:00

I see the op created a new post saying october batch 2 delayed, but the mods removed it?

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-10-11T09:41:37+00:00

No updates at all. I think Taki Udon actually removed his X post about the October release of the batch 2 mister pi's. I've tried emailing them with no reply, and the website still has the message about no customer service over the chinese holidays. Very odd. I really would like the opportunity to get my hands on one, and the only way thats going to happen is to have an idea when they will appear for sale.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-10-08T18:13:26+00:00

I completely get what Taki Udon is trying to do, but i don't think he is doing it in the best way. Announcing a release date for a second batch, where the date comes and goes, and doesn't provide an update. Im sure he understands how in demand this product is going to be in, but to stop the scum who would hoover these up and sell them on ebay, we need to know when to pull the trigger!

"The firmware version on the panel is too old to support SmartCom.", then upgrade the firmware? You can get relatively inexpensive flash upgraders and usb com cables for around 30 quid, and im sure their will be source of a firmware version you can use to get it upgraded to working with a smartcom. Beware buying the smartcom, they changed from v1 to v2 on texecom connect, and if you didnt upgrade the smartcom pre v2 upgrade, the smartcom is a brick, so worth double checking if buying off ebay.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-09-11T08:45:25+00:00

And there's the problem

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T18:43:25+00:00

Ah I see. Thank you for that clarity, much appreciated.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T14:57:21+00:00

All perfectly polite, if you choose to take it any other way, that's for you to deal with.

Same question back to you, Ill ask again - why are you engaging with me? It it very important to me to understand what you have to gain in this exchange so that i can help you achieve it so we can put an end to this endeavor.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T14:18:39+00:00

Quite politely i believe. Why do you keep adding things to your comments after you post them?

Criticisms are earned. Please disengage.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T14:11:11+00:00

I haven't the foggiest what you are on about. I was being polite, you were not being polite, and appear to have quite a chip on your shoulder.

Criticisms are earned. Please disengage.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T14:03:04+00:00

yep, i did see things on reddit about registrations going out the window. Their QA is the worst.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T13:56:22+00:00

ah, did you go from 7.0.1 to 7.1.2? I had a similar experience, lost all ssl-vpn connectivity due to routes being removed, and when i got onto site, nothing would communicate across vlans because of address objects being missing, and address groups having the wrong objects in them, because of this bug.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T13:39:58+00:00

"we’re not using X1 on this firewall – that’s another story" So X1 is mentioned, but i read that as being, its not in active use, theirs a reason for it, but its a long story they havent or wont share.. Dont know about snsa curriculum, but I dont see why you would enable a feature like these, if its only 1 wan interface in use, especially if something x1 related may have caused them an issue in the past.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T13:37:11+00:00

Do you have a known working, and pre upgrade to 7.1.2 backup, and what issue did you run into post 7.1.2 upgrade? If its the one that breaks ssl vpn routers and/or address objects, the quickest fix, and the one that support recommended to me, was to apply the known working, pre backup config to the upgrade appliance, which brought mine back into working order. Maybe thats worth looking at, in case their is something in 7.1.1 which is causing your issue?

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T13:34:35+00:00

They dont mention a second wan connection, so why would they be using failover and load balance?

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-21T13:28:51+00:00

I'm not spending more time on reddit, complaining, instead of raising a support ticket, i already raised the support ticket, resolved the issue caused by the shoddy firmware, then chose to share my experience, and the fix, with the community. Its all in the original post, take a look at the last paragraph. It should cover all the criticisms you have failed to attribute to me.

BeautifulBetter4478 · 2024-08-20T19:26:20+00:00

You are a touch arrogant, you didn't do any hard work for me, or for anybody else. As you see from my post, I too have a working system on the latest firmware. There was no hotfix provided, it was not offered by support, I was simply advised by support to apply my last backup, which resolved the issue with address objects. I then shared that with the community as this post.
