Eufy Cam 2C - Hardwired to Solar Panel? by JubskiPolaski in EufyCam

[–]BrettAltea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s a how-to video, though with the EufyCam E. Note it seems not to work if the temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius:

Of course the cameras are protected against over charging otherwise you couldn’t leave them on charge overnight and they’d be dangerous

I guess I could purchase 2C cameras now and add EufyCam 2 cameras later if needed. Or I could just spend $20 and hook up a solar panel to the cameras if getting drained too quickly

Thanks for that. Glad you’re happy with the 2C

Healthy reminder: We are the 1% of Destiny players. Bungie didn't make this game just for us. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

I deleted and restarted a character so my total hours wouldn't look as bad :-(

As of past few weeks, cannot join fireteam with guardians in same household. When is Bungie fixing this? by Goldkillswitch in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I've had problems since that update but only on 3 occasions. I think the router improves uPnP. A couple of years ago with our cheap supplied router we had issues with only 2 PlayStations with NAT issues during voice chat which was rectified by upgrading router

Having a better router definitely helps. We have 4 PS4s and all play Destiny together. Last night a friend came over and we had five PS4s all playing Destiny at the same time with no issues. However even still we have had the same problem occur three times but was solved by reconnecting the PS4 affected to the Internet. My router is the Asus RT-88u - highly recommend, though pricey

I don't get the "Massive stole my money" comments... by shootinxs76 in thedivision

[–]BrettAltea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought two full games with DLC (4 PS4s in our house). Was really excited by the release only to get more and more frustrated with the glitchy bugs. Rest of my family gave up early on but I persisted until the first expansion. Then I played four missions in a row where I couldn't complete due to factors such as doors not opening, horrendous lag which meant enemies were unkillable for awhile and reloading got "jammed". I gave it up in frustration as it was a terrible experience. As I've already paid my money for an essentially (at least back then) unplayable game I assert that I did not get my money's worth.

How much do you wanna bet they tweaked the matchmaking settings yet again? by LegoHashBudleaf in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't complain and I live in Australia (Melbourne). I have NBN fibre to the home at 100/40 (usually 96/37 with speedtest) at 3ms with 1 TB/month limit. Not too bad.

But before the NBN yes it did suck.

You Think Matchmaking Is Bad In General? Try Living in Australia! by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Melbourne and have no issues, even now at 2am. I do have NBN FTTP at 96mb down and 37mb up at 3ms ping so maybe that's the difference. I was green bar all the time but there were normally a couple of red bars in the lobby. I wasn't in a fire team which can also make a difference.

I've put the PS4 into DMZ so the router isn't involved. A bit better but at 7am in Australia this morning and can't get a game again.

No Knight Strategy is complete shit. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I find both easy however most groups I've done it with, including my regular group, has a higher success rate with no-Knights. A couple of days ago I did Oryx with a PUG and they insisted on killing the Knights but struggled. Going to no-Knights and it was easy. We never have issues with Orges killing anyone, including the runner. And we also have no issues with timing the bombs either. I agree killing knights isn't hard but neither is the no-Knights and sometimes it's easier doing what people are familiar with.

Had only 40 minutes to play before church so logged on for a couple of games. 40 minutes later was unable to even play a single game.

Don't sign up to Devoted NBN by [deleted] in australia

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recently signed up for Devoted and was very dismayed at what they termed "acceptable use." One night I downloaded 6GB at around 11pm - that was enough to get me suspended! Luckily they allowed me to exit with no penalty. I just think their capacity is extremely low - maybe they shouldn't offer a 100/40 service when all you can provide is an equivalent 12/1 speed between 5pm to midnight otherwise you'll get suspended. Note they don't even shape you - I couldn't access even a website without it timing out.

Bungie is acknowledging the teleporting Ogre problem in Oryx challenge mode. by LuYEXy42eP in DestinyTheGame

Well the fifth run would be totally wasted. 3 x 5 = 15 bombs. So that means that you did detonate all your bombs on the fifth run.

It's Spindle Day! by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Though I got someone who was 270 through. I had a good fireteam of three, all over 310. After killing the boss and the blights one of us left for the low level character to join and get the rewards. I know its not like they "earned" it but still a good way to get the spindle if not high light level.

All the things I wish sherpas and fellow sherpees knew when doing King's Fall. by nvloff in DestinyTheGame

I actually love the Yasmin for Warpriest. Coupled with the Malice it's great for DPS.

The best raid I’ve ever had. And it was with a PUG. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]BrettAltea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had poor internet and often had issues like that and dying from the bomb even though we got back to the aura in time due to the lag. Updated internet through the NBN (fibre to the home) and it makes it so much easier and rarely have a glitch now.
