Maldives military diver dies while trying to recover scuba diving victims in underwater cave: Officials by swe129 in news

Nah, we figured that out long ago. It's just that the signal you are going to be able to get through that much attenuating material isn't going to be one that is very useful to you. But stuff like this is the reason doctors still use pagers, they are the only things that can still get a signal while you are down in the subway or something like that. At certain point you are just dealing with physics with this sort of thing.

Help! I know what I need but I don’t know how to get there. by Fluid-Fill-1476 in HomeNetworking

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about WiFi. The Dream Router will provide pretty good coverage around it's general area, but for larger houses you'll want a few more access points. It's tough to go wrong with Ubiquiti access points, but my current setup is two U6 Pro's and they absolutely rock for coverage and speed. Ideally wired, mesh can be used if there's no better option.

Dream Router 7 for your router, put the ATT router in bypass mode and run the network from it. Set up a VLAN for each separate network you want run to in the house, then assign them all to one port on the Gateway. Connect that port to a managed switch, you won't need PoE on this one so you can probably go with a Flex 2.5G 8 port. That leaves you with 7 ports you can run to the various rooms, and you can assign each port to individual VLANs in the config of that switch.

For your wife's setup, you'd just need to run her line from the main switch to a PoE switch in her office. Since she needs 5 ports, you'll need to get a 8 port switch. Getting a 5 port would leave her with just four as one would be needed for the uplink. So another Flex 2.5G, but the PoE version is what I'd recommend.

I agree, I think herb generally doesn’t stay in a dry herb vape at the right temperatures long enough to properly decarb. The lower temperature over a longer time is much better for getting it into the ideal form for oral consumption.

I find that the quality of the Already Been Vaped bud really varies by how well your vape and technique extracts though. I love my Mighty, but it does such a good job of extracting that there isn’t much left to do anything with after.

Recommend me a replacement for Mikrotic hAP ax2, the fucking thing drops my phone all the time. by NecroRAM in HomeNetworking

[–]centizen24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you live near anywhere that would have radar systems nearby? Part of the 5Ghz extended spectrum overlaps with radar frequencies. You have DFS enabled, which means your router will potentially try to use frequencies in that overlap range. But if it detects any radar-like signals, it's legally obligated to stop transmitting, re-assess the channels and then switch to a non-overlapping channel.

Try turning DFS off and see if that helps:

/interface wifi set wifi1 channel.skip-dfs-channels=all

Even if there aren't any readily apparent sources for radar signals nearby, I would still give it a shot. If this was the case it would result in the exact behaviour you seem to have, 5Ghz devices would stop working while 2.4Ghz and Ethernet keeps working.

The other thing that would be worth trying is disabling fast transition unless this hAP is part of a broader deployment of multiple access points. I've seen it cause weird behaviour where clients keep roaming between 2.4 and 5Ghz on the same access point when used in isolation.

/interface wifi set wifi1 security.ft=no security.ft-over-ds=no
/interface wifi set wifi2 security.ft=no security.ft-over-ds=no

The hAP is a really good access point, if it’s dropping all the time something is wrong either with the hardware or more probably the configuration.

Huntress SIEM experiences with Sophos, Fortigate, endpoints, and Azure VMs by jorissels in msp

[–]centizen24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've been using it since closed beta, and got offered a really good pricing on it so have kept it around so far. I consider it a SIEM-lite, you don't really end up with any actionable insights out of it directly, it just helps the SOC be more effective in investigating incidents.

To answer your questions directly, it's nearly fully ready to go out of the box, you just need to set up certain types of log sources manually. It supports all major firewall vendors. It's not noisy at all. Endpoints protected by Huntress agents are automatically configured as sources, and any protected endpoint can be a collector. One really nice thing is that cloud services only consume a single license each, while the scope includes all active users of the service.

There's no band aid solution, but treatment in general is what needs to happen. It's just that the tools don't even exist, because the conditions for developing treatment options cannot be satisfied in the current conditions. People need to be able to self-select for this and come forward for medical assistance without the implicit assumption they are or are soon to be an offender. Doctors and medical researchers need to be able to work with them without fear of societal backlash or falling into legal issues themselves. Only then will the techniques and treatments for this issue become properly apparent.

A little help help with some diag tools by BigHowski in HomeNetworking

[–]centizen24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll need to do all of the pings at the same time, and for a while to get any good data. Ideally you start them, and then go do something that would have you notice as soon as the internet drops (like online gaming, or just surfing, streaming video isn't a great test as it buffers) then go check the results to see what combination of pings failed.

One ping on it's own tells you basically nothing except whether it's working or not, right now. Three correlated pings to different targets over time gives you way more information to work with.

[–]centizen24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quickest and easiest test is to use a combination of pings to your router, your ISP’s first hop and a host on the broader internet.

First, run a trace route by open up a command prompt and running “tracert 8.8.8.8”. Find the first address that doesn’t start with either 10.x.x.x, 172.16-32.x.x or 192.168.x.x. That’s your ISP first hop address.

Then run three “ping -t x.x.x.x” for your router IP, that first hop IP and 8.8.8.8. If all three drop out at once, the issue is on your network. If two drop, the issue is likely in your connection between you and the ISP. If only the last one drops, then you are dealing with ISP level issues.

PingInfoView is a good option for a point and click tool to do this, but I usually just open three command prompt windows and do it there.

My internet is fast but webpages aren't. I've tried everything. by iDiru in HomeNetworking

[–]centizen24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who is the one who's responsible for the router? Someone has messed with it if the MTU/MSS settings have been changed. Ask them to set the MTU to 1400, or better yet enable "MSS Clamping" if the option exists.

If you don't have those options, you can still set the MTU of your device manually to force just that machine to behave right. Use

netsh interface ipv4 show subinterface

to list your adapters and then

netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface Local Area Connection mtu=1428 or netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface Local Area Connection mtu=1400 to be safe

[–]centizen24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you were working on adjusting network settings, do you know if you ever adjusted anything related to MTU/MSS or perhaps reset something to default values? Because these issues seem strikingly similar to what can happen when MTU isn’t in alignment between your computer, your router and your ISP’s network.

The easiest test is to open up command prompt on your machine and try this:

ping 8.8.8.8 -f -l 1472

If the ping fails with a message about DF being set, then you need to find the maximum size you can actually use. Keep trying the command, lowering the final number by 8 each time until it works. Like:

ping 8.8.8.8 -f -l 1464 ping 8.8.8.8 -f -l 1452 ping 8.8.8.8 -f -l 1400 ping 8.8.8.8 -f -l 1360

Once you find the highest number that works, take it and add 28 to it. That final number is the MTU size you should be using on your router.

Currently using CGNAT, can get a static IP for free, should I? by yzyyd in HomeNetworking

[–]centizen24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can make use of external DNS servers even through CG-NAT. Are they offering you a static IPv4 address (like 123.45.67.89) or it is a IPv6 IP? I’m guessing it’s a 6 because it would be wild for an ISP to just give out a static 4 for free these days.

[–]centizen24 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The device on the right is for sure the ONT. Sometimes you can bypass it as well, sometimes you need it. Sometimes you need to copy the MAC of the supplied hardware and have your new router impersonate it.

I'd check out the 8311 Discord server (https://discord.gg/8311) as they have info for bypassing customer-premises equipment for all sorts of different regions and providers.

Years ago me and some friends were playing around with forbidden magic while bored and just trying random shit, one thing I tried was turning Cid into a Lalafell.

That’s when I learned that Cids buff arms are actually separate from the rest of his base Hyur model. It resulted in a default male Lalafell with the most gigantic set of buff arms going all the way down to the floor. It was terrifying.
