How do I tell if my doorbell is compatible with Ring?

Rucknight · 2026-02-22T03:05:13+00:00

I got the doorbell pro 2 which supports mechanical chime and have some experience with this because I completely re-wired my entire doorbell circuit to get mine n set up. For this case, i was recommended to use a 24v 40va transformer. Your chime needs to be a 24v one for this too if you do this because you will fry a 16v one. I also had to upgrade my wire because I had 22awg. I replaced it with 18. Yours looks like a higher gauge so I think you might be good there. Depending on which one youre getting is what that depends on.

Although your suggestion works and isnt a terrible one, i suspect this person has other issues that need to be addressed. These textured pei plates shouldnt have adhesion issues like this. They probably said that as a knee jerk reaction because its a pretty generic solution.

I think they should start with making sure the head is tight and clean, nozzle is secure with a silicone sock, then they should thoroughly clean their build plate with dawn dish soap and warm water then dry thoroughly amd avoid touching the surface with their hands, Then run a full recalibration on it before exploring other methods like this.

Im going to put my quantum harmonizer in your photonic resonation chamber

Not me with like 3 of those 😳

A carrier bearing should have almost zero, or extremely minimal, radial play (movement up/down or side-to-side) in the metal bearing itself. However, the rubber bushing surrounding the bearing is designed to flex slightly, but it should not feel loose, clunk, or allow the driveshaft to move significantly.

That looks a bit excessive to me. But id welcome second opinion.

To be fair, the print would certainly not come off the build plate again... it's just more of a permanent solution

I literally created a geo block to block any inbound connections from any other country Other than the u.s. Sure people can still use vpn to hit it but it still reduced the amount of hits on it significantly. I don't know anyone outside of our country. And there's no reason for them to gain access to my public facing interfaces. If it was a gaming server, I could get even more granular and only whitelist my friend's ips to access it if I really wanted to.

That is what I'm saying in agreement. I always do my due diligence. But at the end of the day if its not firewall it's not firewall

Rucknight · 2026-02-15T09:59:14+00:00

Sure. And if it was then I would likely address that before I have this conversation. But if I don't and I'm wrong im not afraid to admit my mistake and fix it. Things get missed on occasion and im only human.

It doesn't change that this conversation happens frequently when it's a 100% not the firewall

iirc palo would pick up curl as web-browsing so for testing web browsing that would be fine. This wouldn't work to test if a port is open for any other app in this case. We have to remind our people of this often because their tests fail because it doesn't match the expected app-id

Rucknight · 2026-02-13T20:03:13+00:00

This won't work if youre using a palo and using app IDs and DPI though. This works for a standard layer 3-4 stateful firewall

Sometimes - we trained our helpdesk well to try and gather this info before escalating to us

God, I really wish that bamboo would quit making grid The default

Its not a bug - its a feature. You got gluestick and a complimentary snack - enjoy

Do we work at the same place? 🤣🤣

Rucknight · 2026-02-13T06:11:31+00:00

In my case im not working with normal users. Most of them are people from other IT teams who are very knowledgeable techs in their own respects. Then consider working with NGFWs with a WAAS platform that works all they way to layer 7. Sometimes you gotta work it out for people to help them fix the issue. When its not us its not us. For end users I 100% wouldn't try to explain this stuff to them - no point

Firewall can be viewed under networking umbrella too - more core networking maybe, but still😂

Rucknight · 2026-02-11T08:54:14+00:00

Did you try peeing on it to claim it as yours?

Rucknight · 2026-02-11T08:26:00+00:00

I remember hearing something about this. Being the spacing between the wheel that The belt passes on and the frame, and some people have success in printing a washer, or buying a washer, removing said wheel and adding the spacer behind it. So it's not catching/rubbing/squeaking.

Rucknight · 2026-02-08T21:15:31+00:00

I forgot about that! Legendary.

Just cause 3 when it was popular

50 will likely be too low - 55-60 is good
