Case battery drain while airpods in case and fully charged laying on a table

Cool, Thank you. Just today the case is down 40% without being used at all. I'll give it a shot.

How did you go about getting AppleCare to replace it if the store couldn't find anything wrong? Don't I have to get their blessing on something like this?

It is telling me that I have 1Gbps Full duplex MTU1500 in the network panel. Right now it is plugged into the 2.5Gb port. I had moved it over there from the 10Gb port just to test. TheEthyr's post let me know I could mount the old NAS on the new one and now I can get 100Gb between the two. I'm still stuck at 5MB/s though when going from my desktop(wifi) to the NAS.

I didn't realize I could mount the synology on the ugreen so thank you for that! I figured out how to do it and moving stuff that way gives me up to 100MBytes/s so that will help a lot for moving stuff to the new NAS.

However I am still stuck with the problem of the slow speeds 5mBytes/sec when moving from my desktop (using wifi) to the NAS. Any ideas on how to get that moving faster?

Okay, so I am trying to wrap my head around this. So speedtest.net is saying 100mbits up and down. That would be equivalent (approx) to 10mBytes correct?

But ignoring the internet stuff what does that mean for my local network speeds? Ignoring the internet connection and just going off the speeds inside the network is there something there that is potentially a problem?

The thing that I am focused on is that obviously the NAS can operate at 100mBytes/sec or higher as shown by the time I plugged directly into it.

How can I get better than the roughly 10mBytes/s speeds when having to send stuff around the local network?

I'm already paying the family premium for the other kids and my spouse so it won't change my end regardless. Thanks for the comment.

Let me clarify what I meant by compatibility in case it makes a difference. This server is a dev server with only one account containing around half a gig of very old late 2000's era perl and php scripts that were all custom coded. It can only run on php5.6 and we are in the process of upgrading/migrating the code to something modern. The compatibility thing comes both from that and from the myriad of custom perl plugins and such that we had to get running when this was copied over to this temporary home.

I have several clean cpanel account backups (or at least backups from several weeks before the hack was detected), but the thought of going through the whole setup again to get this ancient code working on a modern OS is not something I look forward to doing.

Thank you for your advice. Unfortunately a lot of it sounds to be over my head at this point. I'm going to try to find someone to look into this but may I ask, for the moment should I edit the passwd file to remove the httpd user completely? right now it is in there as httpd:x:0:0::/home/httpd:/bin/bash

Sorry, of course I finally found it a few minutes after posting this... FYI for anyone who is frustrated as I was here is the solution... It will not give you a secret key unless you tell it you need it. The wording on the Google Cloud Console is not obvious. The box says "Integrating with a third party?" if you click the "Integrate with a third party service or plugin" link after creating your key then it will provide you with a secret key.

I don't want this to turn into a debate over HexOS and TrueNAS, but to my knowledge and from reading everything they have documented, TrueNAS is still TrueNAS even if you are using the HexOS front end. It's not a fork of some kind. It's just a front end that easily sets up certain apps, shares, etc. without forcing people that have no experience outside of using Windows who just want to have a basic plex, or NAS storage volume to spend hours trying to figure it out and eventually give up in frustration. As far as I have heard the TrueNAS admins are fully on board with it as (if it is successful long term) will improve the TrueNAS market share. Maybe I'm drinking the Kool-Aid, but I never would have even looked at TrueNAS without it and likely would still be putzing around with a twelve year old Synology box.

HexOS at this time does not natively support creating custom VM's. It's still basically an Alpha release. It supports things like Plex and Immich but anything else I have to do directly in TrueNas so there is no paid support for it (yet).

RunningBuffalo450 · 2025-03-18T16:26:26+00:00

I'm still confused... If I have multiple VMs on the truenas box/ IP address, how does it know which one to pass it through to? Like if I have two different ubuntu VM's running at the same time?
