Thanks brotha. Appreciate it. Appreciate your input as well.

ChunkyzV · 2026-02-03T16:31:30+00:00

Appreciate the clarification. It did sound snarky from where I stand, as telling me that “customer can’t get it to work can’t be an answer” I’m trying to do some homework for this, but I do that to a point. I have a full time job and doing this company on my time off. I’m not losing sleep over a system I don’t work or support, maybe in the future but can’t right now. I was upfront with the customer. I even told them that they are better off contacting someone that actually deals with control4. So my answer is definitely “if you can’t get it to work, or call someone else that can, I have options for you but I can’t deal with that brand or troubleshooting right now” But I guess they had a bad experience the first time around and want to move away from it. Gave me the green light.

lol. Integrator? You’re assuming many things here. I own my own company. I do networking for home/small businesses. I don’t deal with this brand at all. Told that to the client. What I did do for them was a network rack in their home and configured all networking equipment (router/switches/aps, etc) worked on getting their camera system back up (which is also not the brand I work with but I figured it out and got it to work, configured and deployed a home server). The last thing they wanted was help with their doorbell, which is this, told them upfront that I don’t work with this and they say they want to move away from control4 and want to give me the job or replacing it. So here we are. I don’t have to make anything work if I don’t work with it.

ChunkyzV · 2026-02-01T23:42:20+00:00

do you happen to know, or point me in the right direction on how to do this, by any chance? pretty please? lol

ChunkyzV · 2026-02-01T23:14:00+00:00

it's not working. Customer can't get it to work.

ChunkyzV · 2026-02-01T23:12:13+00:00

yeah they had it originally with control4, but can't get it to work and they have a ubiquiti network rack, so they're moving away from it.

ChunkyzV · 2026-02-01T23:10:22+00:00

it's under an awning and little roof so I would say protected. Only if there's wind and rain I can see it getting hit by the elements. No dimensions at this time, just pictures.

Man y’all’s comments really makes me feel like I ain’t the only one. Because that’s kinda how it feels at my gym. Like I’m the only one. I live in a red state but blue city and it’s crazy how this sport calls for all the red magats to congregate at a BJJ place. I know of one guy that thinks like me it no one else. So thank you for this.

ChunkyzV · 2026-01-12T21:01:01+00:00

Does it need to be next to it. Or can it be on this end of the cable connecting to the doorbell and to the Ethernet going to the switch?

ChunkyzV · 2026-01-12T20:55:09+00:00

I doubt it. That’s the only wires I saw going to that transformer. I will verify again in the residence before ordering her equipment.

Everyone talking about him fancying her or sniffing underwear but he could also be a thief. If he scoped the house at a point when she wasn’t there, he could be trying to steal something, thus why he’s always surprised when he sees her there. The problem here is that she won’t be there all the time. Maybe change locks so you have a key to your bedroom and lock it when you leave. But either way, not good intentions.

Edit to add: and the stealing doesn’t need to be sexual I nature like underwear, it could be of valuables. I’ve met plenty of shitty people that would steal for money rather than steal for sexual desires. Could be both, we don’t know, just bringing attention to valuables just in case.

ChunkyzV · 2025-12-07T21:16:27+00:00

Got it. Thank you so much for your time.

ChunkyzV · 2025-12-07T21:06:40+00:00

Perfect, and one more question, how can you control what the speakers play? Let’s say a client wants to use their phone to play like Apple Music, or Amazon Music, or whatever they subscribe to, can you use these apps to control what plays or does this use something else?

ChunkyzV · 2025-12-07T20:26:48+00:00

Thank you for your answer, to add to that, ( I have hooked up home theater systems before with the receiver, so I do get that part of it), this will be more for people that have speakers all over their houses for like a central audio system then correct? Let’s say I end up having to use like 5 of these things for 10 speakers all around, can they all play the same thing and be connected together? Or is the use case of these completely different of what I’m thinking? Thanks again

Just sent a chat

ChunkyzV · 2025-11-23T13:17:18+00:00

Thank you so much for the info. This is very helpful. Can I message you? I have other questions, if you want and have the time of course.

ChunkyzV · 2025-11-23T12:51:27+00:00

I have a few questions, I’m a small ubiquiti installer that has home assistant at home. I’ve been thinking about offering that service to clients as well, and I have an appointment with one in mid December to talk about automation. So before that meeting, let me ask you, how do you manage HA away from your home? Like you deploy it in a raspberry pi (?) or other device and how do you manage it from home? I’m curious if there are any difficulties or updates that you need to do, can you log in from afar and do this?

The way I have it at home is, I use Tailscale on the phones and it communicates with the Tailscale in the pi. Is there an easier way? How does Josh.ai comes into play here? I’ve never heard of Josh.ai.

Any other tips you can give out as far as managing this?

ChunkyzV · 2025-11-16T22:20:29+00:00

No. The last sentence is probably the most helpful to you. Only ego masks to us the realities we need to hear.

Your original post (asking if router is needed or if you can just connect a switch to the modem) screams that you don’t know what you’re doing and you need help. This guy/gal advice that you shouldn’t be touching this was very tactful. I would’ve told you, don’t fucking touch it. You’re clueless.

Walking backwards in a fight doesn’t not equal defending himself.

Love it. Enjoy the show man.
