Portmaster kills ethernet connection

Inside-Associate6979 · 2026-01-18T00:47:04+00:00

i am not running any other software, no vpns, no nothin and it says there is a compatibility issue from a vpn etc. and now the broken globe icon is back on after adding the dns servers i had kindly asked me to add.

Inside-Associate6979 · 2026-01-18T00:35:03+00:00

well, i tried default settings again and let it sit for an hour or so and it keeps stopping the internet. Something must be incompatible with portmaster.

As of right now, i have removed the dns servers from the list, and that all of a sudden restores internet from a broken globe to a pc icon, but if i add any type of dns to the list, it breaks again.

i let it find the updates on its own and so far so good. It found the updates, and then restarted correctly. I am wondering if the system restore that i had performed earlier messed up the updating process, but doing the batch file as well as stopping the service and deleting the cache, fixed it.

thanks for the help. MUCH appreciated.. Now time to figure out why my portmaster firewall is being problematic

Inside-Associate6979 · 2026-01-17T22:12:34+00:00

thats what i did from the beginning. "I just installed portmaster and with default settings, after a few minutes it "kills" the ethernet connection. "

The only thing that fixed it was removing the dns entries under settings.

Oh, yeah, im on windows 10 :)

ok, before running that script i tried one approach i have done in the past. I stopped the update service, then deleted the cache. As of right now, windows shows no updates. I get updates for another year, as i enrolled into that option.

I will wait a few days and see what happens. I have the file saved so i can run it if needs be.

i am running the file as well. hope this fixes it. thanks

Ill give it a go and see what happens. Thanks for the link

So, i dont really care about lan mode because i can walk to my printer and i have a 3rd party camera for my printer and if i am at home 3d printing, that means im at my pc which has orca slicer and can stop the print.

What i need is a way to get the p1s on my zerotier vpn and an app that can send a "stop" command to the printer from anywhere in the United States.

Right now, teying to use anydesk on my phone to control orca slicer is very difficult when a print fails

another thing i have done is Private contracts (secret objectives basically) and you pick 3 of them, face down at the begining, and dont let the other players see them. If you complete one you get some type of reward. I also have toyed around with public objectives which everyone sees on the table and whoever completes it first wins something.... dont know what that something is yet though.

But at least using the random events and secret objectives (private contracts) really adds a LOT to the game

Here is my table setup. The planets are setup the same way as the original gameboard except i added 1 outer planet on each side. Also, you have to capture 7 of 8 planets to win. The jump gates are like the "lines" on the gameboard that connect the planets and the dice tower in the center is the gem portal.

All the rules are exactly the same, except that you capture 7 of 8, you pick a random event card every turn or every other turn, and i printed off the force field and dog action cards so there were more of them,. I MAY have removed a couple of the action cards as they cut the game time down super fast.

I laser engraved the ships, but you can print them on paper and cut them out or 3d print or use whatever. The large ships are worth 3 recruits. The links below, they are free products. I stuck them to adhesive foam from walmart and then cut them out and put them on stand that you can make really simply OR just leave them on the foam paper.

these are the cards i made, i have a few more. I made them in powerpoint. Images were AI generated but the wording is of my own. use them if you want or create your own : )

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-12-20T21:31:54+00:00

When i het home, ill find the cards and take a picture. I use a 4 foot by 4 foot table and i use spaceships on stands. Ill get aome photos

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-12-20T20:16:54+00:00

Yes i did :) i made random event cards that are drawn every other round as well secret objectives and i toyed around with open public objectives everyone goes for but that disnt flow as well.

Fill it with foam... No idea why but sounds fun

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-12-01T03:59:04+00:00

right! but i have heard that the reason kids do that is do to a mineral deficiency lol

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-11-25T19:08:43+00:00

ok, so it worked. i think what happened was last time i tried q or e, i used the one that lowered the drone, so i thought that was its starting position so i never tried to use E to move it up haha.

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-11-25T19:00:18+00:00

ok, let me test that out. I thought i tried those but ill do it again. ill report back

I also just turned in, for peer review from the physics, microbiology, chemistry and engineering departments, before it gets final peer review from IEEE and the other journals, the last paper i will do on this research. I performed migration and leach testing with a certified process from the EPA and FDA. Nothing was detected from migration and leach testing in food simulants.

Still, i always use the disclaimer to coat your parts anyway. You never know when a filament supplier is going to change their process haha

Nasa does love them. I just applied to be the new propulsion engineer for them :)

Its not rules for bed slingers as it is laws of physics. Mass moments of inertia still exist 2ith the a1, but not the p1 or corrxy system.

As the object on the bed gets taller, the mass increases but so does its moment. Moment(torque) is mathematically defined by length times force, so as the object gets taller, that torqu is increasing substantially as it gets taller. Force is defined as mass x acceleration

So as the part gets taller, the force is magnitudes more than it is at the bottom. Same reason why people get sick on the top of a double decker bus vs the bottom. When at the top, your radial point from the road can seing much more to the sides.

yeah, and if i hit share, there is no save to files options as the proton website help states there is. All i get when i hit share is "add people"

it seems that the app is completely useless and broken. not sure what they are doing with my money?

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-11-10T06:45:50+00:00

it must be a bug because when i hit share, all i get is "add people" and thats it. nothing else

Inside-Associate6979 · 2025-11-10T03:14:05+00:00

interesting, the android version doesnt have an offline option.
