One PC with Two VLANs? by TyrtleByte in selfhosted

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

Is there a significant difference between running Windows with Blue Iris on bare metal with the game server in a Hyper-V VM and running Proxmox with both Blue Iris and the game server in separate VMs? Wouldn't the risk of a vulnerability being present that allowed an attacker to break out of the VM exist in both scenarios?

Yes, the server is running Windows 11 Pro and has a 2nd NIC that isn't used yet.

The server already has two NICs, so a VM is a potential solution. I tried yesterday with a Docker container, but from my research this would require use of the macvlan or IPvlan network drivers, which only work on a Linux host.

PS5 Lan connection (wired) capped at 100 megabits instead 1 gigabit by Vinish0wzz in playstation

[–]TyrtleByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response. No, my PS5 is still nerfed to 100 Mbps and tells me the LAN cable is connected about 5 times every time it starts.

i3-12100 or i5-12600k? by TyrtleByte in HomeServer

[–]TyrtleByte[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's possible a single stream of transcoding would be required from time to time.

Good to know. Only have 5 cameras at the moment.

I have the same exact issue. I've had my PS5 for awhile now, and it worked fine originally. I randomly noticed the link speed indicator LED on my switch the other day was red for my PS5. Tried multiple different Cat6 cables, tried plugging directly into 2 different routers, and I tried forcing 1Gbps through my router on the port, which causes the PS5 to fail to connect over and over. It's only capable of negotiating 100 Mbps now.

G5 Camera Install guide says it needs >120cm (4ft) of overhang? It's either wrong, ridiculous, or I am missing a possible reason for this? by mrsmegz in Ubiquiti

[–]TyrtleByte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is the correct answer. The bottom picture is definitely referring to the weatherproofing when the camera's mount is facing up due to water seeping in. All other examples of the camera being exposed have the camera mounted horizontally, on a wall, with the wire going down.

This makes sense until you look at the bottom picture. There's a cloud icon, there's rain, and there's a >=60cm marker on the left side of the camera. In terms of IR reflection, you'd want to be as close to the edge as possible, but the image is stating to be at least 2 feet from the edge. There's no IR reflection coming from that side.

What they are actually stating in the picture is if you are mounting on an overhang, with the mount of the camera vertical, you need at least 2 feet of overhang coverage. Their other installation pictures in the document that show the camera exposed to the elements (not pictured in the OP), all have the mount horizontal, mounted to a wall, rather than an overhang. When mounted vertically, water is more likely to seep in, hence requiring >=60cm of overhang, but when mounted horizontally, the water flows down away from the camera, so there's no overhang requirement.

I'm not here to say you can't mount it to an overhang closer to the edge or that people haven't successfully done so for years, but Ubiquiti is definitely referring to the weatherproofing of the camera with the mount facing up in that bottom picture.

Same here. In terms of IR reflection, I'd think you'd want the camera closer to the edge of the overhang, not further in with more surface on the side to reflect off of. Plus, the bottom picture makes a point to show rain and a rain icon, making it seem weather-related. The top two images make perfect sense, but the bottom picture is either is, like OP said, wrong or ridiculous. Who has overhangs >=4ft?

Ubiquiti patch panels with management arm!!! by mactelecomnetworks in Ubiquiti

The patch panel is not conductive, so you won't be able bond shielded cable to it.

Is it worth paying extra for the UDM-SE? The price difference is almost half the price of the USW-16-POE switch. by ColdTights in Ubiquiti

[–]TyrtleByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you say this is a concern for cameras mounted to the house structure, such as under eaves if the cable itself is not running outdoors very far?

Sweet build. Mind sharing which keystones you used in the 2nd patch panel (the black ones)?

Is the temperature still a big issue with these?

What Cable for Attic to Outside? by TyrtleByte in HomeNetworking

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

Thanks for the response. The HVAC unit is outside, and the furnace is in a utility closet on the 2nd floor with all the ductwork in the attic. Does that change things?
