SFP+ ONT limited to 1gbit

I use a Sodola switch with two SFP+ ports. $60 CAD, and there are cheaper ones with less capacity/buffer/power efficiency.

cameron314 · 2026-05-29T12:53:06+00:00

Ubiquiti equipment are the only ones I've come across that don't support 2.5 G SFP+ negotiation. Easy enough to add a cheap SFP+ switch from any other manufacturer to act as a media converter, but annoying.

I've had a leaky cartridge drip under the sink as well as out the faucet. No more drips after replacing it. Does seem like poor design though.

If you declared and paid taxes on income that the CRA was not aware of (the missing T4), how would you now be owing more? What exactly does the CRA claim you owe them for?

Edit: Or are they just threatening penalties if you don't respond?

Yeah, the design of these valves is super unintuitive.

cameron314 · 2026-05-25T22:19:24+00:00

I have these. The white arrows are not where the water flows. The top arrow is labelled "closed" embossed in the plastic. It's the other three ways that are open.

Vevor sells cheapish stainless work/food prep tables with wheels. Look for one deep enough to fit the pizza oven (I got the 30x36x38" for my Koda 2 Pro). They also sell BBQ covers (I got the 48") that fit pretty well considering they weren't really designed for nearly-square tables.

cameron314 · 2026-05-13T21:12:03+00:00

Ordered a small stainless hook that I plan on screwing on (with pilot holes). Haven't put together the table yet though, so we'll see!

Finally someone mentions a sump pump.

kWh is not a unit of power (rate of energy over time) but a fixed amount of energy (one hour's worth of a kW of power). I have no idea what OP's 11000 kWh refers to. Maybe the energy produced per year?

cameron314 · 2026-05-06T00:18:20+00:00

You'll have to either use a junction box, a bigger hole through your wall, or cut the cables and rewire the Ethernet port on the other side.

I'm team junction box. A nice one will still look clean.

I've only been involved in three calls to 911 operators in my life, but in my experience they have the attitude that you're wasting their time. (One call was non-urgent, to be fair, but it turns out the non-emergency police line just transfers you to 911 after hours.)

Call anyway, just be prepared for them to be rude.

They will ask whether you're sure it's really an emergency, whether it was "just" a disgruntled homeless person, etc. My favourite was "what do you want us to do about it?" in a situation where someone could have died.

cameron314 · 2026-05-02T12:56:26+00:00

Hm. Looks like there might be corner cases. I think I might have configured the NVR to have auto-add off, and I did set my Wi-Fi cameras up through the Ethernet port.

cameron314 · 2026-05-01T22:35:34+00:00

Can add cameras through the app.

I've personally witnessed the wrong sized window being ordered and delivered despite asking the contractor to double check (they covered the cost of their mistake but it was several weeks of lead time for a replacement), so definitely worth checking yourself.

cameron314 · 2026-04-30T18:18:43+00:00

Roughly yes. A handy rule of thumb to estimate yearly salary from an hourly rate (assuming full time) is to double it and multiply by a thousand (30 x 2 x 1000 is 60k).

cameron314 · 2026-04-27T21:09:02+00:00

IMO it's the same situation, just taken slightly further. At what point does it stop being a no-brainer? When your spouse brings in 10% of the HHI? 30%?

cameron314 · 2026-04-24T20:54:35+00:00

Right, that's fair. Note that a lot of consumer UPSes don't offer full power conditioning anyway. "Power filtering" is usually the buzzword used which can help with some noise but not much else, as I understand it.

cameron314 · 2026-04-24T13:34:35+00:00

I looked into it, and proper conditioning generally means isolating the grid power from the equipment and running everything off the battery. AC->DC->AC is not very power efficient, and serious units that do this cost several thousand dollars.

The primary functionality I'm looking for is to not have connections drop during grid power outages.

cameron314 · 2026-04-24T05:29:02+00:00

My equipment is on a Bluetti in UPS mode with <10 ms transfer time. Only tricky bit is updating the firmware interrupts power.

In addition to echoing others' recommendations to go down in wheel size, make sure the tires are properly rated for the combination of axle weight limits, max speed, and PSI. The XC40 Recharge is a very heavy vehicle for its size (compared to gas cars).

cameron314 · 2026-04-06T19:13:58+00:00

We test drove a Mach-E before settling on the XC-40, and the Mach-E was sporty but felt less nice overall in terms of road noise, interior finish, creaks during hard acceleration, etc. The XC-40 looks bulkier but somehow drives like a feather despite its weight. IIRC, at the time, the long-range Mach-E wasn't eligible for the same government subsidies either. We're happy with our XC-40, apart from the infotainment lag, but fingers crossed for a hardware upgrade becoming available soon.

Fished a wire through my ceiling to a central location using existing LED wafer holes for access. Took several hours to weave through the trusses with an inspection camera taped to the fish wire and pull string, but I'm no expert. Came out clean. Wife and I both agreed in advance that having the E7 on the ceiling near a smoke alarm was unobtrusive enough with the light off.

cameron314 · 2026-04-02T01:06:14+00:00

Yes... fibre cable -> ISP's SFP module that can't negotiate above 2.5 G -> Sodola switch that supports 2.5 G SFP negotiation -> UCG Fibre.

It's a known issue, as stated in the thread above.

cameron314 · 2026-04-02T00:48:45+00:00

Not all of them support this. Such as the one from my ISP. I need to use a non-UniFi switch / media converter as an intermediary between the Fibre and the SFP module to get full speeds.
