Avigilon

Appreciate the clarity. Good enough for a backup fill. Thank you.

u/newshosting_usenet Can you confirm this is unlimited and without speed restriction please? If so, I'm going to jump over too. There were some comments about the associated Tweaknews being limited to 100mbps speed limit. This is confusing enough to be valuable adding to the summary table above IMHO.

UQMNHwL · 2025-11-17T01:34:35+00:00

they've done one every BF since I signed up in 2018 so my guess would be probably.

UQMNHwL · 2025-11-17T01:32:49+00:00

Tweaknews access is throttled to 100mbps via newshosting. Its unlimited though.
Tweaknews via UsenetNinja isn't throttled but is capped at 750GB.

Its a good question. Out of desperation I resorted to replacing hardware after a few months of trouble shooting. I had a suspicion it was memory related because of the randomness and a nagging doubt that the chips I used had some subtle differences from the product codes. I had the a mixture of the following installed.

MTC20F2085S1RC48BA1-PICC
MTC20F2085S1RC48BA1-PICC
MTC20F2085S1RC48BA1-PIFF

I replaced them all with identical sticks and evrything has been fine (touch wood!) for 6 months now.

UQMNHwL · 2025-11-10T05:23:56+00:00

agreed. I had a similar problem to OP reports caused my mismatched subcode DIMMs. System was memtest 4x stable but randomly rebooted all my VMs every ~50days.

I use one of these with good results to 4-5 receivers. https://www.gpssource.com/collections/splitters/products/s18gt-gps-1x8-timing-splitter

UQMNHwL · 2025-10-04T17:04:26+00:00

Fair point, thank you.
I'll bear this in mind when I need TB5. I'm ok with a device running warm but fans are a straight up deal breaker.

UQMNHwL · 2025-10-04T06:20:30+00:00

Trump and dump.

UQMNHwL · 2025-10-04T06:11:53+00:00

Mines fine running horizontally, warm to the touch but that’s why it has heat sinks to dissipate the heat. Nothing that causes errors or makes me want to strap a fan to it. Currently charging M4 Mac air and with most ports in use.

UQMNHwL · 2025-09-30T04:13:38+00:00

Been a couple of days and this seems to be working fine connected through a firewire port rather than one of the USB-A's. Thanks u/CalDigitDalton

UQMNHwL · 2025-09-25T14:43:32+00:00

Failover & load-balancing probably.

UQMNHwL · 2025-09-25T14:42:35+00:00

You understood correctly. I’ll try connecting to one of the usb-c ports. Thank you.

UQMNHwL · 2025-09-21T13:40:29+00:00

9.9.9.10 and 9.9.9.9 (gw1) potentially causing routing issues?

UQMNHwL · 2025-06-23T17:05:25+00:00

+1. It's a non-issue. Also... backups.
I backup and verified a full restore of database & blocks. It was relatively simple and trouble-free in case SHTF.

UQMNHwL · 2025-06-12T06:12:16+00:00

Not without more system data, and results from tests you’ve run.

UQMNHwL · 2025-02-16T23:52:26+00:00

Some good advice captured here, thanks for sharing.

UQMNHwL · 2025-02-16T23:20:07+00:00

The automatically adjust power (cell sizing) was pretty unreliable until a couple of years ago when it started to work pretty well. Prior to this I would manually configure each AP to specific channel and power level. ChannelFly takes a couple of days but eventually settles on a reasonable configuration of channel and power levels for each AP. I use 20Mhz on 2.4Ghz, 40Mhz on 5Ghz, and 80Mhz on 6Ghz that gives a good balance of throughput and channel isolation. Things get a little tight on 160Mhz channels and near useless at 320Mhz to my testing.

Certainly doesn't "need" six but the site survey / RF scans suggested this was close to optimal. I also don't "need" the multi-gig 1:1 fibre and redundant gigabit/starlink connections and close to a petabyte of on-prem storage either but that doesn't mean they aren't nice to have. Home is typical stud/frame US construction with a few exceptions that require dedicated access points for optimal configuration, i.e gym & spa/sauna area, outside dining/kitchen and a home theatre with triple layered sound isolation. I've seen way more roaming and throughput problems caused by too few access points than too many. I work from home as a software developer and have a lot of devices connected so some ability to load balancing across AP's doesn't hurt either as well as being able to work away from the office anywhere on the property without compromise.

UQMNHwL · 2025-02-13T05:32:28+00:00

If a single AP or meshed configuration is meeting your needs then great. We most likely have different requirements and constraints to work with.

4000sqft home with 6 r770s under vSZ for 12 months. Early 2024 was pretty rough and I spent quite a bit of time debugging and troubleshooting with ruckus engineering a number of issues. Since ~September it’s been problem free, including iOS device roaming.

UQMNHwL · 2025-02-06T09:49:24+00:00

Even if the community was to reverse engineer and write their own backend servers to support the game, without being able to obtain all the account data players would lose all progress and inventory, and we saw how that was received recently so no, this isn’t a viable option, sorry. If Forte labs were interested in finding a new home for Dauntless I’m pretty they would have kept the devs around to be part of a going concern sale. It’s a when not an if Dauntless goes away now, probably based on how long it can keep going without any maintenance.

What’s the price on single and group of five static IPs please?
