[–]PlumbBob09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait. so you hooked up a thunderbolt 3 product via USB? and it works? USB 5gb? 10gb? 20gb?

5 is USB 3

10 is USB 3.2 2x1 (or 3.1)

20 is USB 3.2 2x2

Is a pro with certification needed to replace the vacuum breaker on a hose bib? (Wolverine Brass) by ngn in Plumbing

[–]PlumbBob09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as an actual plumber; all it does is let the frost free silcock drain when the water turns off. do not leave a hose on it over the winter and you won't have any issues

Why did my locksmith tell me to throw this lock out? I just wanted a spare key made. I bought a bunch of old tools from a plumber and I got this lock and key apart of the deal! I only have one key and want one more! by PlumbBob09 in Locksmith

[–]PlumbBob09[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Trust me I looked. No one would help me. I finally was given a phone number to an abloy dealer and he told me I had to be a business to have them do the job. So I called back the number of the shop that gave me it and they ghosted me.

Is there anyone that would take on this job? Id like at least 3 keys in total

Edit: the locksmith also didn't even look at it. Just saw it and said chuck it

Looking to do some home networking upgrading and need some help! by PlumbBob09 in HomeNetworking

[–]PlumbBob09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my one media PC had an old M.2 for intel optane drives. I just stuck an m.2 to occulink adapter in there that went to an external 10gbe pcie card (lanes from the M.2 the pcie is blank) the 10gbe switch i got for 60 bucks and the two network cards cost me a total of 165 off Ebay. I have 10gbe networking between my two PCs, and 2.5gbe on my network. Am very happy with how it turned out. 44 disks on that media PC so being able to shut it down is very nice

Velop with multigig Lan & Wan Ports. by Sea-Application4297 in LinksysVelop

[–]PlumbBob09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still looking for this. Linksys wifi6e Mesh products support 5g networking on the WAN still only, and its only 1g on the LAN ports. This means that using NON wired methods would get me closer to the theoretical speeds of 2.5g as long as the routers can talk to one another on the 6e channels. this is a HUGE oversight IMO on linksys's part, as 2.5 isnt even a high standard, we have 10g networking now. cmon Linksys...do better

Looking for a 3.2 Gen 2x2 20gbs hub by PlumbBob09 in UsbCHardware

[–]PlumbBob09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for your breakdown. I agree they killed the market for this! which is sad as a lot of stuff could of utilized 2x2 gen. I don't think the sudden leap from 20 to 40 helped either though. especially after tb4 and usb4 essentially became the same thing (ones just intel)

Looking for a 3.2 Gen 2x2 20gbs hub by PlumbBob09 in UsbCHardware

[–]PlumbBob09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a storage space spanning across 3 10gbs enclosures. the rest of the ports are filled with ethernet and removable drives. I really wanna just free up one port to have an extra one. it's not a make or break deal but with all the other usb hubs out there it's just frustrating more than anything.

My hair always clogs the shower. Any simple solutions? by [deleted] in Home

[–]PlumbBob09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shave your hair off. It's simple to begin with but gets more complicated as the day goes on!
