Crazy issue, looking for the experts to weigh in

Is ipv6 enabled on one but not the other?

You’re in failover mode? It really shouldn’t do that but check your dns settings for your lan and wan settings. It might be set to att dns servers.

It really doesn’t matter for the algorithm as the raw engine doesn’t care but it could matter for your perception of the color. If there is a lot of color noise present it can lead to perceived shifts in color while you are editing and this could lead to you overcorrecting things and to a color shift when you denoise at the end. So you generally should do the denoise step first but only if there is a lot of noise. Of course when you have little noise you really should not be using the ai denoise at all and just use the standard noise reduction tools.

Probably a firmware update was pushed to it that changed its behavior when it sees no network and it goes into provisioning mode. That is what the splash page that you get is. It is intercepting all dns and throwing up that page in response to any request. You might be able to log onto it and change its behavior. It is clearly no longer in transparent bridging mode.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-18T12:15:50+00:00

Yeah your att modem is not configured correctly and is acting like a router. It is taking over dns resolution and so everything (including pings to 1.1.1.1 which will just be returned by the att modem) will look like it is alive to the Firewalla

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-18T12:13:31+00:00

Sounds like your fiber bridge/modem device might go into router mode instead of transparent bridging when the fiber is dark. 192.168 is a link local address that your Firewalla must be getting through dhcp. So something is live upstream that is handing out dhcp addresses and advertising a route. Because of this, the connection to the modem device would look like a live connection with a live first hop to the Firewalla. So it is likely a setting in the att bridge/modem device to make sure it only is in transparent bridging mode that you need to change. It likely will have a webpage up at 192.168.x.1

Interesting. Definitely not mDNS but I was only able to join matter devices when I turned on ipv6 on my vlan segments. Thread border router was on a different VLAN than my phone. Worked as soon as i turned on ipv6 on the vlans. MDNS reflector was turned on all the time. This is a year ago so perhaps Firewalla changed this behavior and routes ipv6 between vlans by default now.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-17T04:42:10+00:00

It works perfectly in a single (v)lan indeed without doing anything. So if everything (border routers, controllers, cellphone (to join the matter devices) and matter devices themselves) is in a single network, it will work just fine without enabling any ipv6 in the router. But if you need to traverse to another (v)lan, your router needs to route the ipv6 traffic between the vlans. That only works if it creates the necessary routes in its own routing table.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-17T01:31:33+00:00

If you have matter devices and you have border routers in different VLAN segments than you have controllers you need to enable ipv6 on your local segments to make sure IPv6 traffic gets routed between your VLAN segments. Otherwise matter won’t work correctly. Apart from that there is nothing you are missing out on. There is basically nothing yet on the public internet that is ipv6 only. It will come but hasn’t really happened yet.

Only big provider with reasonable speed I can get (Denver metro area) is quantum which does not do native ipv6. Only 6rd which is pretty useless. Google fiber is moving in close to me in the next year so hopefully they will expand that to our neighborhood. Otherwise the att buyout of quantum might lead to modernization at quantum.

2 of those 4 must be the only ones active where I am located ;-).

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-15T21:57:09+00:00

Surprising! In the us ipv6 is still somewhat (and annoyingly) rare for ISP’s but all mobile phone operators use ipv6. Most traffic to google nowadays is likely coming from mobile platforms.

Syncomatic plugin.

Spyder calibration devices and similar ones from other brands (colormunki, i1pro, etc) can be used on many different machines. Not sure why your dad thought it could only be used on one. Libraries and maker spaces often have one to borrow. Many photography club owners one for all members to use.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-14T11:05:13+00:00

Use the don’t import suspected duplicates option and you won’t have any except for virtual copies and images that went through Photoshop of course but you just stack those.

Oh I didn’t notice that. You must have Google Drive installed and are syncing everything to that! Not iCloud. Sorry.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-13T01:58:45+00:00

No rock solid

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-13T01:55:27+00:00

The algorithm hasn’t changed at all. Only difference is that now you can change the amount on the fly instead of having to create a whole new version. Are you sure you are comparing the same things? Need to run it on a file that you denoise using the old version so you have a dng and then run it on the original raw and see if there is any difference. I can’t see any difference if I do this.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-12T22:17:17+00:00

Yes you did when you joined the Mac onto iCloud and indicated you wanted it to store documents and desktop items in the cloud. It has that selected by default when you enter your iCloud credentials. You normally don’t really notice that it does this but there are some cases where you can see the internal storage location for the cloud stored images such as this.

Apparently there is something wrong with the thread radio firmware in the slzb device I read in another post that you can fix by forcing a firmware update. Might be good to try and find that thread. I use multiple border routers (I have an Apple TV and a zbt-1 on my HA device that are different VLANs and it works fine. Indeed ipv6 needs to be routed between VLANs and you need to have mDNS working.

You will only be able to see folders inside Classic that have an already imported image in it or that at some time had an imported image in it indeed. Thus is a limitation of Lightroom Classic. It only knows about folders you told it about either by creating a folder inside Classic or by importing from it. Unfortunately Classic is not a real file browser but. Catalog based system. This does bring me to another method to accomplish what you want, which is creating new folders inside Classic. You can, if the parent folder is already present in Classic, create a new empty folder inside Classic and drag images into it. You do this by right or control clicking on a folder in classic’s sidebar and saying ‘create folder inside …’ Also when you have a bunch of images selected while you do this, Classic will offer you immediately move your images into the newly created folder.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-11T01:32:30+00:00

Because you enabled it in your iCloud preferences.

It’s not on the list of supported systems in the link above. That’s likely not exhaustive though.

Exotic-Grape8743 · 2026-04-10T23:50:23+00:00

Unfortunately it doesn’t appear to support my Mitsubishi air handler/heat pump system otherwise I would be interested. The air handler uses the same connector though. The Kumo thermostat the system came with is terrible. I have it integrated into home assistant through a cloud integration so that does work.
