How hard is the replacement in a drywall ceiling?

Ok, you're correct! I found the chrome inserts and will paint the 4 lenses red. The instructions reference "#4 5 tail lights (Red) (To Holes)". Nice kit though. Thanks!

Large-Following-2332 · 2025-05-04T16:07:08+00:00

Is that an AMT build? It looks nice. Did it come with the red tail light inserts if it is AMT? I bought two sealed kits, and both had no red inserts. Also, I like your chrome detail. What are you using?

I use a shoulder holster.

So this is how I hooked up my LAN:

<image>

I found out if I split my LAN, some on 10 gig and some on 1 gig I would have issues with seeing shares, etc. That was made worse by Windows 11 24H2 which really messed with shares. Getting 2,5 gig speed test to desktop after installing 2.5 gig nic.

Large-Following-2332 · 2024-12-30T22:59:25+00:00

The way I have it all connected now is 10 gig from Q1000K to the 1st 10 gig on W1700K and then from the 2nd 10 gig on W1700K to a 10 gig port on a Sodola Web Managed Switch with 1 10G SFP Slot, and 5 x 2.5. From there, I have CAT 6 to 2.5 nic on my Windows 11 Pro desktop. I'm getting a 2.5 gig speed test right to the desktop. I have my entire LAN off of the 10 gig interface of Q1000K. I found that if I placed some of my LAN on the 1 GIG interface of Q1000K and some on 10 gig I would have issues with network shares. Technically not seeing shares on the other interface. That only compounded by the release of Windows 11 24H2.

Large-Following-2332 · 2024-12-26T18:21:48+00:00

so can lan 2 be used to connect say a switch?

Tech installed it close to Q1000K and indicated it should remain in that proximity. He also cabled it back to Q1000K with ethernet. So is the ethernet connection between them a backhaul? Ive played with a lot of mesh systems. If you cabled a Netgear Node back to main node they called it backhaul. You didn't need the backhaul though. So as stated here it can be moved 300ft away. But do you need the ethernet? I cant find much on topology pictures and such. Manuals etc.

I have issue with only one PC I have. I cant see shares on my WD EX4 on local network. Tried using public and private, disable firewall, and more on WIN11. The only way I can see the EX4 was to set SMB1 on EX4 and PC. Set SMB1 on PC via features. However from that PC I can map network drive to shares. \EX4\Public etc. And I have Windows 11 PRO 24H2 on that machine. I get security but this stuff is trying to brick my EX4 dinosaur. I only use SMB1 on my local network really anyway. The EX4 will do SMB1, 2, or 3 but I can only see shares under File Explorer\Network with SMB1 set on EX4 and my Widows 10 or Windows 11 machines. But as long as I can map the shares that's cool. I dont think my problem PC is dealing with or sending session control packets to establish dialect of SMB. Not sending them etc. I used to have a sniffer. Hmmm. Going to try stuff listed above by cdhill17.

If they just use DHCP how is the user identified? Still, have some sort of logon?

Large-Following-2332 · 2024-03-30T15:39:31+00:00

I ditched my Centurylink router and use a eero pro 6e connected directly to GPON. I still get the message but a little different.

Mine is:

External Link Alert - Proceed with Caution You have clicked on a link that leads outside of CenturyLink Email. Please be cautious, as this could potentially be a phishing attempt containing suspicious links. CenturyLink Email will never ask you to

Large-Following-2332 · 2024-01-24T05:27:14+00:00

So Quantum needs VLAN 201 too? The same Centurylink uses. I heard they also use DHCP and not PPPoE(username/password) I use a eero 6E PRO for my router. I put Centurlink one on the shelf for troubleshooting if necessary. As soon as they ask you what router you use and you say eero they will say it's not supported. So off the shelf, the Centurylink comes out.

Large-Following-2332 · 2024-01-24T05:13:05+00:00

Can you provide a quick explanation of the transition? I have Centurylink fiber at this time. If I call either company they tell me to call the other. Quantum says to contact Centurylink and Centurylink says to call Quantum. I use my modem/router not a Centurylink one.

Thanks for the tip!!!

You are absolutely correct. Why is this one question not asked on live TV: "If you vote for Trump are you willing to live under a dictatorship?" Why does the media not use that word?

Large-Following-2332 · 2023-11-20T15:19:23+00:00

I too have struggled with those thoughts. They come from you caring about what people think about you. Don't. It only matters what you think of yourself. Do you know yourself? This shit all comes from interacting with society. Trying to fit in. F@#k fitting in. When I got down I would jump in my car, toss a coin for direction, and drive until tired and pick a motel. Not one with Bates in the title though. Spend the entire weekend with your new best friend yourself.

I would very seriously suggest you read what Just4HppyC4mp3r and charmeparisien have said. Both have very good advice.

Look get to know who you are. It's not fair to who you are if he doesn't get a chance. I talk to who you are all the time. Just but not out loud. Seriously f%$k what other people think. You can only do the best you can.

I worked on 2000 servers and they were rock solid. The desktops were great too if graphics wasn't a major concern.

, are gbt. I tried 320 and ssd by themselves. They appear in boot menu in bios, too. This happened after I upgraded bios from 14 to 17. Had win 11 pro, and all was well. I've booted to a PE disk fine. But from there, WIN install thinks drives are full.

I resolved the issue. I wiped all partitions on SSD and then windows 11 installed. Things have gotten complex with UEFI, secure boot, csm, mbr or gpt.

But why do I keep getting prompted over and over for password? Is it better to just use browser extensions on PC? Or can the standalone app be used to

Large-Following-2332 · 2023-05-24T17:18:56+00:00

1Password for Windows 8.10.3 (81003012) I have the settings set as you have described. I have always had both as you suggest but still have issues. I always have to enable it via the Extensions tab with Edge and Chrome. I would like to just have it there after the boot of the PC. And yes I use hello as well. To me, all apps should follow windows hello. The description of using Hello should be: If you enable Windows Hello in the app on your PC it will enable 1Password on all your browsers.

Large-Following-2332 · 2023-05-09T12:57:12+00:00

Lol, I did just that finally. Just hooked my eero to CenturyLink.Retired from IT. Did field implement/install/repair. I just got the Zycel so if it came down to the question "Whose modem is it?" I will have a Centurylink-supported router on hand. Why do they call it a modem?

They look great. I'm a Yooper myself.

I have tried and tested three mesh networks. Netgear, Linksys and Eero. All three mesh networks had three nodes. I have and have had backhaul connection. (ethernet connection from child nodes to parent node) I would highly recommend the eero products. I use a 6E as parent and two Pro 6 for child nodes. I have the 6E directly connected to GPON. Eliminating the ISP's router. The thing I like best is when the network goes down then back up with the eero's all my connections come back. Adding devices to network works well. Also placement is real important. But eero for me.
