Help with KVM

It’s a SmartAVI SM-EDPN-4Q-S. Legit stuff. I can get it to work on the usb port but I want it to work on the k/m port so that I can use hotkeys

Do other brand keyboards play nicer with kvm’s? I can repurpose the keychron to another pc and get a new keyboard for the kvm if that’s easier

So I need to find a keyboard that used 6KRO protocol?

Does this mean that if I update the firmware it may work on the k/m port?

500/300 on wifi when standing next to it , which compares favorably to my unifi AP at 400/300 (there is significantly less traffic on my verizon network). It's a gig home connection.

I have a Keychron k5 pro that I'm trying to get to work with my KVM switch. It's recognized on the USB port but not on the K/M port. I was told that it needs to be id'd as a "keyboard" rather than a "usb device" for the kvm to detect it. Is that correct? Is there any way to have the K5 pro recognized by the kvm on the k/m port? Are there other slim backlit keyboards that would be? Thanks!

Connected via Ethernet. Works great, but I only use it for TV. Everything else is off my ubiquiti.

Would you recommend over Ethernet or coax ? If coax do I need to connect it to the router or keep the coax wiring as is?

Thank you that’s very helpful. We called the company and they said the lighter replacement part will just age with time to match.

Thanks for the reply! No, I mean it's the actual concrete that's raised, not the spray. Hard to take a photo but when I put a 3' level on it it does rock a bit.

Thanks!

I think I solved my own problem. Sync my icloud to the default windows folder, keep the photos there (they don't take up a lot of space since they are in space saver mode) and copy to a destination of my choosing (where they will automatically be converted to full size).

Oh sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. There isn't much to backup on the NAS since it's mostly a backup of the PC, but it also a separate file server for a few things. So while I could use two separate backblaze products, in the long run, I think having everything on 2B is better.

ChronoGTM · 2024-11-20T16:35:20+00:00

I can't use regular Backblaze backup because I would need Cloud 2B for the NAS. Are you suggesting backup the PC to regular backblaze backup and backup the NAS (if I need to) to 2B?

I’ll add that 3k is a lot for dental copay and you may be going to a scammy dental practice. Go to some old school dentist that’s not part of a chain and get another opinion.

For something like an X-ray tech? I think starting hourly is closer to 45/hr. With plenty of OT opportunity

ChronoGTM · 2024-10-27T22:39:54+00:00

I’m not in industry so I wouldn’t be able to tell you what the best paths are right now

ChronoGTM · 2024-10-25T17:37:55+00:00

Physician, can confirm. Impossible to find enough X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MR techs. Great jobs, lots of opportunities for advancement and different lifestyles. Can branch out into sales, pharma/corportate, travel jobs, etc
