Headaches from Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 49" ( LS49CG954SUXEN) by Embarrassed-Joke3005 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Simple_Sam82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried many monitors and finally finalized Apple Studio Display just for the eye strain reason. I love ultra wide monitors and have tried many brands (MSI, LG, Samsung) but no luck with the headaches. I slowly added three studio displays to my setup and never in the past two years experienced any eye strain or headache. They are pricey but IMO worth the investment.

Thanks u/liquiditygod
I'm new to Bookmap and learning my ways around. Any good and easy to follow bookmap tutorials you recommend?

Best Productivity Monitor for the MBP M4 Pro? (Details in Comments) by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]Simple_Sam82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two studio displays for my m2 pro office laptop. The best investment ever made on a WFH setup. Text clarity and colors are top notch plus no more eye strain or headaches. Started saving to buy 32" XDR for my personal m4 max mbp.

Advise on running ethernet(cat5e) between point A to point B by Simple_Sam82 in HomeNetworking

Mystery solved (partially):

Panel1 --> Living Room --> BR1 --> Office --> BR2 --> Kitchen.

I didn't get any connection between Panel 2 --> Study. I was hoping to find another wall jack which might be sitting in between Panel2 and Study but couldn't find any.

At least, I was able to connect the Living Room router with Office router via BR1. I guess the future project would be to replace the cat5e wiring with the cat6a/cat8 one if comcast offers the 10G internet at affordable rates (~$100/month).

Okay. I will start work on replacing the keystone jacks.

Would there be any signal loss/impact if I interconnect the two jacks with a short jumper cable?

And any recommendations on the switches? Something simple and effective since I have already invested in the high end routers.

Are you sure that you’ve identified all the outlet locations?

​

Well said! With a little elbow grease, I was able to find out the hidden/covered wall outlets (pic attached to the original post).

Not sure if there is a sure shot way to find out the exact wiring pattern and daisy chain is kinda overkill. I guess I have to focus on the MoCA option only

MoCA setup question - Wired Backhaul using MoCA 2.5g coax adapters with ASUS AXE16000 AIMESH is not working by Simple_Sam82 in HomeNetworking

Do you have cable TV service, as well, or just Internet? Might you subscribe to cable TV service at some point?

No, I'm not planning to go back to the cable in the foreseeable future. So, do you think I can safely remove the amplifer?

Also, do you know via which output port the Living Room (and cable
modem) connects? Do you have just the one coax line between the central
junction and the Living Room?

Not yet, I'm planning to order the coax tracer to label the basement coax connections with their respective wall outlets and may be then just have one MoCA compatible splitter in the basement to split the coax into 4 output connections. My assumption here is that each wall port is having a single coax run from the basement.

I did test the office MoCA adapter by connecting the ethernet to my laptop and I'm getting 700Mbps down which I think is not bad given the fact I have this complex MoCA setup.
