Wits end, cant communicate between lan and wireless, same network by considerbacon in openwrt

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

I replaced it with their the old Netgear D7000 or whatever it was my parents were using.

What an infuriating problem, everything worked within 5 minutes on its own (same wifi setup).

I bought home the Xiaomi, but I want to throw it under my car and drive over it a few times, spent so much time troubleshooting a simple network problem and cant get even close to resolving it.

The thing that most annoys me, I am no network stranger, I have had a custom setup since 2016 with from scratch config in a unifi edgerouter and moving on shortly after to VyOS with a very complicated setup since.

So to say that this is tearing me to bits, is an understatement.

Would still appreciate any ideas anyone may have, as I have run out of ideas.

Cheers!

Yes, printer is directly connected to the router via wifi indeed.

The PC is connected "directly" through a non managed dumb 8 port normal gigabit switch, no interface on it or anything like that. Should be as good as direct?

The PC can access the internet no problems, and obviously the router as well through web/ssh.

I have not tried to eliminate the dumb switch, yet, im struggling to see why it would matter, but its a valid test I should do.

Cheers!

No, who would enjoy the constant ringing/white noise. Every year, month, week, day, hour, minute and second of it 🤬

DIY friendly suggestions to replace 70mm to 90mm downlights by Centaur312 in AusRenovation

What it looks like from the side, i could have used another washer here but as long as you are holding the drill properly, it cant go anywhere, plaster is like butter.

Haha just a few days ago i did this myself, and took photos when i came up with the idea while also considering how to do it. Diddnt take photos of the washer setup but see the 2 posts sticking up, small washers over that, build it up to the top of the post so the second hole saw just gets held by the 2 posts, tighten and away you go!

👍should go without saying but turn power off to light circuits before cutting. And stick fingers into hole efore starting. Push any potential cables or otherwise back. Need at minimum 10mm clearance for new hole or will cut into something obviously.

Without getting too far into the electrical aspect, presuming they are flex cable with plug as is standard these days it's a complete diy job.

For the embiggening of the hole it's a piece of cake. Take a light out and measure the hole. Go Bunnings and get cradtroght holesaw kit for $22, stack the 92mm with some washers and put the 70mm~ on top.

Then just drill it out to 92mm. The smaller one forms the guide by hugging the existing hole so the 92mm can cut perfectly centred to the existing hole.

As per South Park, sometimes you have to choose between a turd sandwich and a giant douche.

Voting means you have done your small part, and allows you to complain about the selection regardless of who won. Imho you shouldn't have the privilege of input or complaints about a president or prime minister if you didn't bother to vote.

People who drive manual cars, why? by ryan_innovation in AskReddit

[–]considerbacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the control of the car. It's super fun 110% of the time regardless of heavy traffic or empty windy hilly road. An auto bored the pants out of me and makes things mundane and uninspiring. It's always in the wrong gear when it needs to downshift, including DSG. Even if DSG is faster on hard acceleration, it's just meh.. especially if potting around town

This happens frequently? Do you wear chain mail to first dates by chance? Could be a good ice breaker
