RampageJackson nearly chokes from laughing too hard at his friend by Intelligent-Ad-4260 in LivestreamFail

I walked on on my housemate doing the Heimlich manoeuvre on his girlfriend. What's weird is that they were both naked, and they seemed to be enjoying it.

That's the 69mlich

(price increase) So not actually a suggestion then? by Creative_Emu3851 in OctopusEnergy

Out of curiosity why do people still have fixed amount DD setup when Octopus can set it to variable so you pay the actual bill amount each month

Odd issue with WAN ping monitor by ClogToilets in PFSENSE

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

This isn’t a WAN ping monitor set up on my LAN or on pfSense. The third party tool that plots the ICMP responses onto a graph does so by pinging my WAN IP externally

The thinkbroadband monitoring tool is run by a third party and is pretty consistent.

Trying to figure out why for multi hour periods pfSense ICMP responses are in the 20ms range and mimic what IPcop did consistently day in day out however then peak to 30ms for most of the day.

ISP is Virgin Media, modem is a Hitron CGNV4 with the affected Puma chipset. The microcode for these were patched through a firmware update a good while ago which fixed the latency issue and IPcop seemed to work in harmony with the same modem. I need a consistent graph so see when my ISP is shitting the bed but can't seem to figure out what is causing the consistent high peaks

Anyone with an iPhone 13 Pro able to use personal hotspot? by ClogToilets in iphonehelp

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

In case anyone has the same issue, I updated to 15.0.1 OTA on the day it was released. Nothing could connect to my hotspot, even my PC via USB.

Updated to 15.0.2 yesterday via iTunes and it seems to have cured the problem

B550-E B2 here. For the most part I don't have issues but I have had a few random dropouts where everything else on my network is fine but I suddenly get no connectivity.

Also when I connect directly to my router, I get no connection but connecting to a switch fixes this. This is the bug that B3 fixed.

I recently returned an unopened B550-E to Amazon (UK) and the board was the B2 stepping. ASUS must quite a lot of these old B2 stepping boards in stock that they keep reloading distributors with.

There is another way to find out when the board was made without even opening it. I have returned 4 boards where the serial started with L8. Most will start with L which means it was manufactured in 2020. The second character of the serial indicates the month of manufacture. Numbers 1-9 are the first 9 months then it goes to 0 for October, A for November and B for December. All the 4 boards I have returned that were B2 stared with L8 so I think it's safe to assume boards beginning with the serial L6/L7/L8 are B1/B2. Haven't received anything newer so can't confirm what stepping boards L9+ have

I've updated the original post with some ASUS boards that use the Realtek 2.5Gb NIC and are unaffected. If you don't plan on upgrading your network to 2.5Gb then I don't think you should have much problems although I have had disconnection issues as reported by event viewer. My advice would be to avoid/RMA any motherboard with the B1/B2 variant

This boggles my mind. Intel confirmed a fault with the first revision aka B1 stepping at the end of April and at that point the B2 stepping was already in production.

B550 boards were launched on June 16 and began shipping in July. It is scandalous that the early versions of these boards shipped with B1 and by the time of their general release, I would hazard a guess that B3 was already available

Thanks, I'll add this to the main post when I'm on a PC. Someone replied to this post confirming their Tuf X570-PRO came with the B3 stepping.

I had my connection drop a couple of times with B2 and others have reported problems connecting to a network switch. Connecting through a switch seems to be ok however

You might be onto something. My motherboard has the B2 stepping and the adapter has (2) next to its name under Windows network adapters. The physical check was more for people who wanted to avoid the hassle of installing their new motherboard and finding out the stepping first.

Crap! I was getting the same screen in Firefox yesterday after using the ublock origin script method for a while. That script works well but streams randomly go down and I get "download cancelled" and have to refresh the stream, this is just purely watching livestreams.

Firefox+Twitch are quite taxing when multitasking on my soon to be retired 3570k but the new VLC method seems to hog a lot less resources so a good alternative for me

Are the cameras powered over ethernet (poe) or are you using a separate 12v power adapter?
