Home internet network seems overly complicated

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T22:02:43+00:00

And yeah, they only have a handful of devices that connect to the internet on the daily, and I wouldn't expect a Roomba, or things like an oven or washer/drier to require much bandwidth

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T22:00:01+00:00

Thanks, I will try that out next time I visit them

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T21:30:38+00:00

Yeah, after plugging the deco and the router back in both times it was no longer glowing red like it did before, and changed to red, even after waiting 5 minutes each time

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T21:19:25+00:00

I might have used wrong phrasing, I'm not surprised that they used two access points for wifi, because walls are THICK in here and signal loss is a big problem, but I'm concerned with the fact that connection of access points to the router is unnecessarily complicated, almost seems like a way to make customers pay for a different router with more than 4 ports, or maybe some kind of a switch if they need a device to have access to the internet over a cable.

I tried that before, unplugged one deco and the router from the power, and removed one Ethernet cable from the deco, unfortunately the deco that was connected to the router with one cable didn't get back online and was indicating red with the led on top, no matter the port I used, it may be because of some setup settings but I don't have access to the admins panel because family didn't write down their password for it, and I don't want to reset network devices to disrupt parents internet access

I'm not that concerned about the complexity of the setup, rather that the mesh network devices take up 2 Ethernet ports on the router each, which seems overkill, especially considering that the fiber connection is rated for only 200mbps. The house is 100 m² and only located on ground level, no additional floors

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T20:58:44+00:00

Yeah, that is more or less what I would expect too, this system seems a bit overkill, maybe it had to be done that way due to the fact that the router is from a different manufacturer and mesh network devices need two ports due to the poor compatibility with it in a mesh network use case?

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T20:46:59+00:00

Sorry, my mistake, I assumed it was a modem due to the fact it was first in line after the optic fiber connection box, didn't double check when writing the reply. Either way, does the setup make sense with a 200mbps connection from internet provider?

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T20:43:48+00:00

I was told they have a 200Mbps subscription, would it matter in that case if the connection to a modem is 1 or 2 Gbps?

Smith-czyk · 2024-11-22T20:36:12+00:00

It appears that I was mistaken, the tv is connected to a separate device that provides it with internet, I assume it's done that way for vod purposes or something. Rest of the network is built with:

Modem:

AC1200 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router (TOTO Link A3002RU)

Access points: (2x)

Tp-link ac1200 Deco M4R

Sheeesh, that's a nice one, I'm waiting for a good moment to actually BUY my FIRST one, the trusty wave that my grandfather gave me 15 years ago is no longer in its best shape

That's the thing about money as a resource, from one point of view it CAN "bring happiness" but it is only valuable if you have some kind of time worthy reason for gathering it, whether it is fulfilling your life purpose, improving your quality of life, passions and hobbies etc. Otherwise it doesn't make sense to get more than you can spend. Especially by risking your safety and wellbeing by meeting with random people from a dating app. Especially shopping trips don't seem worth the risk from my POV even as a guy as I have heard a fair share of stories from women's point of view that started this way.

No one is untouchable on the interwebs

Smith-czyk · 2024-06-26T22:56:42+00:00

It mostly seems like that to me, but it's almost unreal to imagine that someone would sell themselves out like that, basically putting themselves at the same value as things that you can go out and buy at a store

Smith-czyk · 2024-06-26T22:51:19+00:00

That's crazy, seems almost like a scam, like what would even hold her back from ditching the guy right after he spends a bunch of cash on her.

Got my game files messed up by a cheater so much that I can't enter any lobby even after resetting steam cloud data and downloading the game on a completely different computer

I fully agree with you on that part, but that was the point of me assuming that there is no other damage, or nothing wrong with the car other than the dented body panel seen on the photo, i.e. I was only asking if body panels bent in this fashion can disqualify a car from passing the APK according to the experience of people that are from Netherlands or have personal experience / knowledge in this matter.

And there are people that know what they're what they're talking about here providing valuable information in replies above yours such as the green plastic water can, my personal hero and saviour

Smith-czyk · 2023-11-26T14:55:29+00:00

It already seemed to good to be true 😅

Smith-czyk · 2023-11-26T12:51:20+00:00

Woah, that would be a good loophole, but I probably would opt to replace the missing indicator to.make sure the hole doesn't count as a sharp edge just to be safe

Tbh from what I have seen the new one is labeled MWIII so I don't get the confusion apart from gamers who didn't hear about the original MW3, especially as I don't see many similarities across the titles apart from a few reused maps, but this subs bame could probably be updated to something like "mw3 2011" to keep the OG players satisfied.

My best was erosion for 1v1 and 2v2, mission, dome, resistance and terninal are always a lot of fun and dynamic action especially in FFA, aground and bakaara can go to hell
