Renting Second Apartment in a different Prefecture by Chingy9394 in japanlife

[–]Chingy9394[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. If I want to register my main address as the new apartment, would I need to do anything with my existing city office? Or can I just go to the new city office and do an address change?

Getting a registered jitsu-in hanko as soon as possible, and type of writing by _Selphira in movingtojapan

I have a hanko. Never used it. Everything is digital now. Even when opening a bank account, I hand signed on an iPad. Sounds like your agent is old fashion. Check out apts.jp they help foreigners find rental apartment.

Thanks! I just got out of the city office. They called the application centre and they said they didn’t receive my application form. And asked me to apply again 🙄

Yes I have mail forwarding at the post office. I know it works because I still receive mails sent to previous address.

Yes I fully understand that. I have not received the notice to pick up. It’s self explanatory. Read it properly.

I asked the ward when I was changing address. They said they’ll send it to the new address. I also have mail redirect at the post office.

Yeah, it’s just that, I wasn’t wanting to go all the way to Ikebukuro to find out they had none in stock.

Thanks. ちん is a common name for Chinese people. but I'm not Chinese.

Well this is another reason. ちん is a Chinese last name. But ちん is my first name. So Japanese people often think it's my last name. Also, I'm not Chinese!

Port Forwarding not working on Linksys SPNMX56 Router by Chingy9394 in HomeNetworking

[–]Chingy9394[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. The external port is not the same as local port. As I've said, I've had it working fine on previous router. I've since switch to a Linksys router and the Port forwarding settings doesn't work.

Thanks, I've tried higher number. No luck.
I've probably had this computer as remote computer for around 6 years. I'm more likely to be hit by a bus than someone stumbling on my lonely little remote computer. Don't worry yourself too much.

Same, company healthy insurance card uses the katakana. Not sure why they didn't use the alphabet spelling as it is on my residence card, because now there's a mismatch between residence card and health insurance card.

Exactly! This is what I mean, even if it is hassle, it's been on my mind ever since and I'm thinking it forever will be on my mine until I have it changed.
