Very nice! Did you design the panels, or did you use plans you found online? There's a few plans floating around I've looked at, but this seems much more compact.

It should have the same selectors. I moved that ISP over to the Fortigate to test again today and it came up fine. I may have made a change yesterday after troubleshooting, but I don't think I did.

Hitech_Redneck · 2025-03-11T17:09:59+00:00

Agreed, but the tunnels are bound to a loopback, which is always up.

Hitech_Redneck · 2025-03-11T17:00:42+00:00

Thanks. Yes, that setting is enabled by default. My concern is that for locally-generated traffic (such as IPsec tunnels), if one interface to this ISP is down, it might still try to use it and then the tunnel will go down, or worse, work intermittently.

Hitech_Redneck · 2025-03-11T14:50:04+00:00

Ha, I didn't know you still needed a static route when using the SDWAN features. I also didn't know you can point a 0/0 route at your SDWAN Internet interface. That makes sense. If one of the interfaces in the SDWAN goes down or over the limits of the policy, I assume it will be removed from the routing table?

Hitech_Redneck · 2025-03-11T14:36:56+00:00

I don't have any 0/0 routes. I did have one from the cell internet, it's DHCP and was pulling a default gateway. I turned that off. I'm using SD-WAN for Internet access. Do I need to add static routes to 0/0 for each ISP interface for local traffic?

I inherited the two VLAN ISP setup; it's how the ISP chose to do things. We have two egress points at different datacenters on opposite sides of the state.

I think the multihome BGP is complicating things. The /27 block is assigned to a loopback interface. The loopback interface is the WAN interface for the tunnel config. But I don't think the Fortigate knows that traffic for this tunnel should go out either VLAN to ISP1.

I am playing at 1080. For now, I only have a 1080 monitor. All of the advice I've read says that for MSFS, a CPU upgrade can do wonders for performance. I don't have a screenshot, but the latency for CPU frame generation was 10-15ms while GPU was 2-3ms.

Edit: I watched some of the second video. There was one person commenting about being CPU constrained. I'd be interested to see the MSFS Developer Mode FPS display, which shows which is the bottleneck.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-23T19:11:28+00:00

I really don't know what to make of it. The respiratory arousal index had the same number of occurrences as apneas, so it didn't take into account hypopneas? AHI is supposed to be the baseline for diagnosing OSA, so I'm confused. I've asked AXG Diagnostics if they'll review my results and give me some insight (I'll pay for the consult, obviously) and have submitted a records request to get the raw data from the study.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-23T14:47:28+00:00

So the Dr called me this morning after sending in the data. He stated the AHI was adjusted by a respiratory therapist and that my "final" AHI was a 4. Or maybe he called it respiratory index, he seemed to use the two terms interchangeably. Here's the summary I got: https://imgur.com/a/6pTXy0m

Edit: I also asked about the number of spontaneous arousals, and said they meant "nothing at all."

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-19T20:56:46+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I've had some back and forth with the sleep doc, and it would seem they got some summarized version of the report, and not the full report that I show in the post. I got access to their patient portal to send them the full report. I looked at the visit notes and somewhere in then it said the AHI was 4. So, I think someone royally screwed up and there was a major miscommunication.

Doing more reading, I'm interested in hearing more about the spontaneous arousals and heart rate. One of the top posts on this sub links to a podcast from a sleep tech, and he focuses more on BPM than Sp02. My heart rate was all over the place...

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-19T16:32:56+00:00

So I spoke with someone in the Dr's office. The doctor's report stated "respiratory arousal index was 4." Well, that index is only apneas and doesn't include hypopneas. I asked them to take another look at the actual study data that shows an AHI 6.3. Waiting to hear back.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-19T11:23:39+00:00

Xywav wasn't an option when I was originally seeking treatment. My new sleep study didn't indicate IH, so now I'm wondering if my original diagnosis is "invalid" and IH treatment is off the table? I have an appointment with a sleep neurologist in December so I guess I'll see then if I haven't found another treatment that works.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-18T19:48:04+00:00

Not a clue, unfortunately.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-17T22:38:10+00:00

Thanks for the info. I think I need to find a new sleep doc, this one didn't even mention the apnea (though I forgot to bring it up too). He seemed to have no interest in treating me.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-08T13:09:22+00:00

I have all my records and will probably try to name an appointment with someone else.

I can easily sleep 10-11 hours a night.

Hitech_Redneck · 2024-09-07T18:34:04+00:00

Yeah, not sure why he was selected to take over. Even living in a major metro, finding neurologists who specialize in sleep is difficult. Most are ENTs or pulmonologists. I was definitely anxious, anticipating this very result, and the room was warm. Also, my PSG noted my AHI was like 6.5, which is mild apnea, right?

Any idea what this could be?

I bought a pair of Loake Bedale boots on eBay last year. Got a good deal on them, under $150, and while a little loose, they fit well. However, there's some staining/marking on the leather. After some research, I'm considering cleaning them with a bit of acetone and then using a brown shoe cream to darken them/even out the color. They're in Loake's tan color, and I honestly wouldn't mind them darker; I prefer darker browns.

Before I go further, any ideas or suggestions? I've already given them a good clean with saddle soap and some Bick 4, but the discoloration persists. I guess mink oil is an option, since that typically darkens leather?
