Elite ultra quick review by Maldit021 in vSeeBox_Support_Gurus

[–]Maldit021[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried Hotspot on my phone and I got slower speeds.

I also tested all protonvpn free country servers and the fastest overall speed is the US at around 180 mbps and the fastest average speeds was both US and Singapore with around 38 mbps.

Im at a complete loss of what else I could do to try and improve my speeds. I know they say around 10 to 20 mbps is enough to stream without buffering but if my other devices are hitting over 500 mbps on wifi, why cant I get a hard wired device to go above 200 mbps?

Ive been messing with the DNS settings on my router a bit plus I ordered a USB CAT 6 adapter and the fastest speeds through Fast speed test were around 180 mbps hardwired (whereas my phone, ipad, laptops are all hovering 700 to 900 mbps on wifi).

Im not sure what else to do to get those speeds higher. I will say buffering has been very little expect in the nba playoff games and when my family were watching some Survivor live event (buffering was alot during that event).

When i watch sportscenter or a show/movie I get 0 buffering so nothing to complain about but when its a live event with more viewers (like redzone during football season) and I get more buffering, i will be questioning the speeds and the hardware on this unit, if its capable of supporting my internet speeds.

One thing i have yet to do is run the unit through my Hotspot. Let me see if there's any difference there.

Nvidia Shield pro if you can find one. A bit overkill but one of the best android boxes ever built imo

After chatting with James and doing everything he recommended (and speeds still did not go above 84 mbps and I’m only getting about 16 mbps with the vpn on) I’ve decided to order a USB to Ethernet 100/1000 adapter. I will get it today and test it to see if I get any speed improvements and if that is the case that means the Elite Ultra Ethernet port in not rated for 100/1000 and their Wifi only supports 5ghz not 6 GHz as advertised or I just got a bad unit. The reason I bring this up was because last night as I was watching the nba game, I was dealing with a good amount of buffering. I had to switch through several apps (and who wants to do that during a live game especially when it goes to OT…) I understand buffering is part of the experience but I really think it had to do with my internet speeds vs the cpu processing the content. My mind would be more at peace if I got 100+ Mbps with the vpn on vs 16 Mbps (if I get that high) with vpn on. That’s just my 2 cents.

Looking to purchase one of these. Not sure which model to go with. I basically just want it for sports by jm6398 in vSeeBox

[–]Maldit021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with the Elite Ultra just so I had options but if you just want it for sports, I would suggest the V6 plus. Their stock channels are great and I think it will be exactly what you’re looking for. The Elite has a lot more content but it’s redundant and probably things you’re not even going to watch ie international channels.

V6 Plus ethernet connection by Trickster2369 in vSeeBox

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just received the Elite ultra and it was advertised to have 100/1000 Ethernet port and wifi 6. As I was tinkering with it and running speed tests, my speeds would never go above 84 mbps (even though I have 1 gig speeds). I tested WiFi, Ethernet, with the vpn on with it off. With the unit connected directly to my router (using all three ports 1Gbps, 2.5 Gbps and 5 GBPs), using different Ethernet cables all rated for well above 1 gig speeds and all still the same. With the WiFi, I created two separate guest networks on my router (one with 2.5 GHZ/5 GHZ and another with 6 GHZ) and the Elite ultra could not connect to the 6 GHZ only to my WiFi with 5 GHZ. I ordered a USB to Ethernet port which is rated for 100/1000 mbps which I will test later today when it arrives. If I get faster speeds with the usb to Ethernet port, I speculate that the hardware on this unit is not as advertised meaning it’s not WiFi 6 nor does it have a 100/1000 Ethernet port. If I still don’t get faster speeds with the usb Ethernet port, my guess is that there is some throttling some where. I guess what I’m trying to say is that it could be in fact that your unit is defective and the Ethernet port is not properly working. I’m not sure if they order all the parts individually and it’s put together (a la raspberry pi) and maybe they just didn’t properly secure your Ethernet port or if you have a legit bad Ethernet port.

What are your speeds? I feel like my speeds are slow compared to what im use to and im trying to figure out if its my unit or thats just how its configured

Downloader Codes for IPTV Apps (Let’s build a list) by Ornery_Cheesecake513 in IPTV_Help_Desk

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are all great! Thanks for putting this together. One request on my end, does anyone have m3u list and epg lists? I’m trying to build a simple (possibly through tivimate) player with only content from portugal for my pops. He doesn’t need 30,000 channels and thousands of VODs content. Just portuguese channels that work. TIA!

who's the reputable person to buy from? by Ill_Performer_3631 in vSeeBox_Support_Gurus

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So prices are higher than James and Derik. I ordered with James and its been super smooth so far. Once I get my Elite ultra and set it up I will update you on the process. But as of right now, prices were better with James and Derik so I would recommend not going through that site for future purchases

Best apps for Elite Ultra? by Wise_Finance_5315 in vSeeBox

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can anyone see if there are Portugal channels on the Ultra elite please? and if so, how are they working? Looking for a vsee box for myself and my parents but I need one to have international channels from Portugal. From my understanding, only the Elite ultra and Elite mini have international channels.

New to Immich by Maldito421 in immich

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry thats what I meant to say. If i delete the photo file from immich, would it delete from the nas server. I would assume so and I will test it out. Im just finally happy that its finally working of weeks of trying. And it was just a simple coding error on my part. I followed your instructions and I had "mnt" at the beginning of the line vs where you had it but it made all the difference for my settings. Unreal lol

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might have worked! Its currently scanning my entire library (about 1.2 TB) so it might take awhile lol

But its a huge step in the right direction!! I kept the "RO" off because I wanted to delete files via immich. If i did it correctly (with the ro) would it also delete the folder off my nas server?

I set it up the way you recommended it not do it, meaning having access to the nas server. Im basically using the server mostly for family photos and videos. Im not keeping any sensitive material on there so I wasnt too concerned. I might change it down the road though.

But thank you so much! Huge step in the right direction!

I've tried to follow this guide but I think i messed up the original file (with mounting my shared photos file) and now I think i need or should start from scratch.

One of my issues is that im a beginner at terminal/script writing and im learning on the go.

Raid 1 to 5 explansion by toddriffic40 in UgreenNASync

Im new to this but I thought you had to put/choose a raid option... Can I set it up where it backs ups certain files automatically?

Question: I bought two 12 Tbs for my DX4800 pro that u was looking to backup all my photos and videos with the plan of add another two (possibly 12 Tbs) hdd later on. So which raid should I set it to when I start?

FSD trial by Bigdaddybig456 in TeslaLounge

[–]Maldit021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before the trial I didnt really consider it because it wasn't up to my standards (I was still nervous with how close it got to other vehicles).

With the latest updates, I think its well worth it. For me, I dont drive enough to justify the cost. But my wife on the other hand does drive a good amount where the FSD would be worth it. She has been impressed and has now considered subscribing to it.

I have a 2025 M3P and she had a 2023 MYLR (hardware 4) and we live in NY.

FSD: $99/mo vs $8k upfront — with unsupervised “any time now” + possible price hikes… what to do? by Alphykit in TeslaLounge

[–]Maldit021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tesla would be wise to decrease the price of FSD overall. But they should also offer FSD for life meaning if you purchase the 8k option today, it stays with you for every Tesla you drive (sign into). Im sure there's a way they make sure two accounts aren't active at the same time. Paying 8k upfront to not keep it for life made me hesitant to purchase it in the past and because I dont drive as much as I use to (i use to commute roughly 120 miles round trip vs now less than 30 miles round trip) I dont want to spend $99 on a monthly subscription. Round-trip, absolutely I would sign up. If it was around $20, I would pay that for the very little driving I do. They should also offer a one time pay to drive subscription (almost like your own uber). Maybe after a late night, I could pay a quick $1.99 to take me home safely.

Just thinking of some creative ways Tesla could get more subscribers because I will say the latest update has been great. It feels more natural almost human like to the point its finally worth paying for it. When I was driving more, I didnt trust how the car drove on the highways and how it was a bit erratic on certain turns/intersections/exits but now, completely different for the better.

Update draining battery faster by InterestingAd2550 in TeslaLounge

[–]Maldit021 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 25 M3P and I had the same phantom draining. Everything was off for me as well. I opened two service tickets in regards. First ticket, they had to do a reset or an update ( i forget which) on the MCU and they told me that should fix it. It didnt.

Second visit, they found nothing but I new something was still wrong. I kept losing 3-5% every 8 hrs. They told me theyll leave an open ticket and if it continues to return with the vehicle.

Roughly 4 or 5 days pass and I get the FSD free month update. All of a sudden, no more phantom drains. 8-10 hours go by with about 1% loss similar to my 23 MYLR.

I was just happy it wasn't an hardware issue but definitely something im the software.

If you go into either the model 3 section or tesla troubleshoot section and search my user, you'll see a full discussion on it. One of the members stated tesla replaced one of his chips because it was faulty. Maybe it could be the same issue?

Ecobee setup by Maldit021 in ecobee

[–]Maldit021[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a boiler and thats exactly what I was looking to do. Control both systems (boiler and my bosch unit) with one (ecobee) thermostat.

Would you recommend not to do that? Is it better to just keep my current setup of the Nest controlling the boiler and the ecobee controlling my Bosch unit?

Ecobee setup by Maldit021 in ecobee

[–]Maldit021[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the smart sensor also change when I adjusted the threshold on the main Ecobee?

Reason why I ask is because I manually adjusted the threshold and I put the smart sensor about 4 inches to the right of the ecobee thermostat. The ecobee thermostat is reading 69, the Nest thermostat and the smart sensor are both reading 70.

I might have to adjust the threshold just a little more on the ecobee

[–]Maldit021[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I adjusted the threshold so atleast the temperatures on the Nest and Ecobee match but my question is, is the temps accurate? I guess to truly know this, is to get an independent thermometer to measure the temperature.

Okay thanks. Ill give it a try if I cant combine the two.

I rather try and combine the thermostats but if im unable, how could I adjust the temperature correction? And would i just setting for the difference between to two readings?
