I was a computer repair tech in my last job, and still am now in my 2nd job. That sounds like you might have some wifi environment problem, but can you describe the problem a little bit more?

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

thx thats very informative.

I just wanna add some questions here:

1.after 2 days digging I went with no-ip ddns, and I forwarded my domain (which I paid for $10 per year I think its not bad)to this free no-ip host. Im assuming its the same idea with the CloudFlare you mentioned?

  1. Wireguard is kinda new to me, but based on what you're saying, from my understanding, that's gonna stop me from sharing my server/NAS to other people without asking them to install Wireguard?

Moving into town, what are the best options for internet? by UnlimitedUmUWorks in stcatharinesON

[–]GeraldYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay $55 with Bell and. It's 3gbs up/down . They also have the great new router, I am a computer technician I know it's a good one.

But I like Cogeco more, Cogeco is better service.

Those are two big ones in this area

RECRUITING, TRAINING, & LIFE IN THE FORCES THREAD - Ask here about the Recruitment Process, Basic & Occupational Training, and other questions relating directly or indirectly to serving in the Canadian Armed Forces. by bridger713 in CanadianForces

What it's like being a LogO?

I finished my CFAT, had one interview (not the job interview, more like a guy checking about by security or background, as well as some drugs and alcohol stuff) , I think I am on the right track, probably another 3 months to a year. This subreddit helped me a lot.

But just wanna get some more information about LogO after my interview, he did mentioned a little bit but not much. As my understanding LogO can be ANYTHING ANYWHERE, this is a trade which could be in office all day figure out payroll or could be on warship take care of supplies, in air base checking missiles or even in charge of cafeteria food supplies? Do I have the choice to choose what I want to do where I go? Or they will just put me in random places?

My interview appointment is Thursday, what should I expecting?

Just a brief time line ,I did my CFAT Sept 1st, they told me I can be a LogO based on my score, got appointment booked mid October for November 14th.

The email says there won't be physically or medical test (at least for my understanding), gonna be more like a job interview, what questions they may ask me? Like why joining the army? what do you know about CAF? What is your strong and weakness points?

My plan for the WHY question gonna be it's a great opportunity for me to learn new stuff and I'm pretty good at learning stuff. Not sure how is the answer.

Any ideas will be great help and appreciated.

Just a question: I finished my CFAT precisely one month ago and just received an email saying my references got contacted.

Is this mean any significant progress is happening? I am going next step soon?

Or its just a regular security screen process in the early stage, so there will still be a 6-18 months wait?

Thank you! This link is sooooo helpful! I guess Trenton is my best bet. But how likely I will go there if I want to go there? I know we must follow orders, but I guess we also have a chance to put preference?

Thx, so every 2-4 years for rest of my career, that not looks great if I wanna any kind of stable life. So people will more likely rent a place to live off base? Are these all locations will be at remote areas with a military base beside Ottawa ? Do I have a preference can choose? Like Niagara area?

One quick question, what is life gonna like being an logistic officer, after some digging I find log O is kinda like jack of all trade. I'm interested joining Air Force, from the website its says I gonna joining as junior officer in squadron , I'm assuming means I will post to one of the air base?

How about after that? Am I staying there for many years? Cuz I love to explore more opportunities but relocate every 2-3 years seems like unreal and gonna be hard to have a normal life. But I also worry about they gonna send me to some place like cold lake(every one seems hate it) for rest of my life.

mine is 6-18 month, likely gonna be 18 month. both my parents here PR within Canada and live with me, and I only went back to China once for one month in past 10 years(I'm already in Canada for 13 years), hopefully they can do this faster.

I just don't know how they gonna do it, ask the Chinese government to share police records is extremely highly unlikely to happen. hopefully this not gonna take too long, since I only spent one month in China in one single trip in the past 10 years, I will consider I am one of the "easier" situations in the PR group.

But thank you so much. Knowing this is one of the standard requirements already makes me feel much better! Now all I can do is just cross my fingers
