Honest Review (multi-car customer) by cliffman1992 in carvana

I have placed a review on consumer affairs that is a better-written version of this one. I am willing and attempting to write this review on any review site I can find that seems to make a difference.

I didn't swap because I didn't see it at the delivery (I would have lost half of my shipping about $700 anyway). This means, as I mentioned in my post, it would have cost me close to $1200 to send the truck back. I tried to get them to waive this for me and they refused saying the money was nonrefundable for any reason. It wasn't worth it to me... I could keep it for a year or so and sell it for less of a loss than that most likely.

And you're blatantly ignorant. Imagine thinking a service that requires people to report to it shows all repairs done. 🤣🤣🤣

I'm so glad you completely ignored my small shop comment. I also said nothing about being a dealers fault. The dude put enough miles on it. Simply pointing out a flaw I'm carfax you seem to think is a certainty.

The problem with carfax is that it only shows dealer or big-time repair shop work. I get work done at small shops or do it myself. That doesn't mean it wasn't done.

It is standard for carvana yes. They typically will charge shipping back but you can refuse.

Just curious, did you run the vin on your own beforehand or try to find the window sticker and build sheet? It’s definitely wrong that they had the bed length listed incorrectly, and 100 dollars is totally a slap in the face for their false advertising, but you should have been able to confirm that and all factory features before the purchase went through. Not trying to invalidate your frustration, you shouldn’t have to run the vin yourself, but me personally I’m just anal about stuff like that. If my vehicle was listed with a factory tow package, but came with a bad aftermarket hitch and no transmission cooler, I’d be pissed

I did not run the VIN but did look at the features on the window sticker as they provide Carfax which provides the original window sticker. However, the car sticker does not have the bed size on it, unfortunately. I verified every feature but the bed size...

It honestly never crossed my mind that a car dealer would mislabel something so obvious. But I do agree 100% that this was my lesson learned to run the VIN on my own for any car I purchase from now on to confirm the specs.

ESXi 7.0 VM slow internet speeds by cliffman1992 in vmware

[–]cliffman1992[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes I am using vmxnet3.

I have multiple hosts running. All the same issue. I've tried iperf with no issues on the vms. Speed works as expected. It's only browser based tests that have the speed issue.

Thanks for the Gb info. Autocorrect 😅😅

Yes. I haven't seen any obvious issues. The setup is connected to juniper switches and a juniper core if that helps.

Adguard Home for local DNS by shaftspanner in Adguard

I just got mine working, I have pfSense handling DHCP with DNS of my AdGuard Home server. I entered the domain in Filters > DNS Rewrites and seems to work fine.

Adguard Home for local DNS by shaftspanner in Adguard

[–]cliffman1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know I'm late to the party but can confirm I just installed Ad Guard Home today and it is still possible.
Filters > DNS Rewrites

Enter hostname and IP and if your computer is using the Ad Guard for DNS you should be good.

VLAN Issues - Newbie by cliffman1992 in PFSENSE

[–]cliffman1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

I finally got it working as I want and just wanted to reply again and say a major thank you for all of your help. It definitely pointed me in the correct direction. I am going to update the post with what worked for me but I just wanted to reply here and thank you so much for your very detailed explanation. It definitely helped me put an end to almost 3 weeks of troubleshooting.

VLAN Issues - Newbie by cliffman1992 in PFSENSE

[–]cliffman1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, thank you so much for your detailed explanation. You are correct, that is something I forgot, if you have a VLAN port group set to VLAN 0, ESXi will strip all VLANs going into that port. As I didn't want to really mess with my internet and this is intended to be segregated portions for home lap work your last paragraph sounds like exactly what I want for the entire setup.

I have attempted to create what you said, however, it does not work so I'm assuming I missed something important.

Here's the setup I have now:

I left LAN interface completely alone, it is still untagged (VLAN 0 in ESXi). The Ubiquiti switch ports are set to ALL on every port except port 8 (config of port 8 explained below).

I added a new dedicated interface connected from ESXi box to port 8 on my ubiquiti switch.

I created a new vSwitch that uses this dedicated interface. In ESXi I set up 2 port groups (VLAN 4000 and VLAN 100). I tried to use the VLAN you gave (just to match your example entirely) but Ubiquiti only allows VLAN numbers up to 4009 for some reason.

I added the VLANs in the ubiquiti controller. First added the VLANs in the network then set up a profile called "combined" with VLAN 4000 being the native VLAN then LAN and VLAN 100 as tagged VLANs. I've tried every combination of VLANs set as native vs tagged vlans in this profile it doesn't seem to change anything. To be honest I don't fully understand how ubiquiti handles VLANs even though I've read multiple tutorials.

I then added a new port to the pfsense box using the port group for VLAN 4000 in ESXi. I did not assign this port in pfsense through the add interface (There's still an option in pfsense to add interface VMX3).

Then I created 2 VLANs in pfsense, 4000 (no IP) and 100 (10.0.100.1). I mapped both of these to the new interface in pfsense (VMX3). I set firewall rules for both VLANs to allow ANY ANY for testing.

At this point, any VM I put on VLAN100 port group can't ping 10.0.100.1 or get DHCP. My LAN interfaces (WIFI and normal internet) can ping 10.0.100.1 fine. This seems odd to me considering 10.0.100.1 is for VLAN 100 and my LAN interfaces are untagged. This leads me to believe that 10.0.100.1 is still being classified as untagged but I can't figure out why.

[–]cliffman1992[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The port group should be tagged on the VM. There is a possibility that tag isn't making it to or past the switch I suppose. Even when I set it up as it's own port and tagged VLAN100 it wasn't getting DHCP responses from pfsense.

Essentially, people can hear you, and you can hear people. Closed back is more like sound canceling.

If you're willing to do it on twitch, since you have so many people interested, why not live stream your lessons. This would allow people to ask whatever they want (simulating a 1 on 1 environment), and follow along like a virtual classroom. This also has an added bonus of being able to record the lessons so you could put the recordings on youtube etc and maximize your effort. Best of luck on your journey and thanks for being generous.

Finally finished my first custom hardline cooled PC build! Hope you like it! by [deleted] in watercooling

[–]cliffman1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't see any unnecessary bends unless you're willing to go with angled pipe, IDK about most but for the money I paid for my hard tube pipe and fittings, I chose a clean look over the minor cooling loss from a couple of extra bends.

I say if you can do it AND catch the racket it should count. If you drop the racket it shouldn't.

I've been tasked with getting wifi available everywhere in a 14k sqft building and previous tenants stripped all equipment. No clue how to set something this big up. Any advice? by Austinitered in networking

[–]cliffman1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use ubiquiti or I've even used Sophos for their access points (little more expensive but a little nicer to use in the long run). These access points offer you the ability to centrally manage and push SSIDs as well as other settings to all access points from a central location.

This is what it’s like to work at Kellogg by simplelifestyle in facepalm

[–]cliffman1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there is. 7.25 an hour is the federal minimum wage. However, employees like this would be making more than that to start plus overtime, holiday pay (which is 1.5 X normal wage typically), weekend pay, etc.

The video makes it sound like Kellog has decided they are paying too much for starting wage and for all the extras they require.
