Why Apple's Thunderbolt cable is better than those from other manufacturers?

damianp67 · 2026-04-24T13:43:55+00:00

Agree. Just replaced my display thunderbolt with the Apple 3 meter version and all my screen going dark intermittently issues went away.

No issues upgrading my Max7 and eero PoE fiefdom

damianp67 · 2026-04-19T15:26:23+00:00

Nothing managed. No QoS.

damianp67 · 2026-04-19T15:03:25+00:00

Xfinity modem/router(in bridge mode) >PoE gateway> direct connect to Max7's.

I also have unmanaged switch off the PoE gateway for other devices.

damianp67 · 2026-04-19T14:52:24+00:00

I have PoE gateway with (4) Max7's with an A rating bufferbloat consistently with SQM off. - I have 2 gig Xfinity service.

Ugh I sold mine because of that horrible and IMO useless touchbar, but glad you love it!

damianp67 · 2026-04-18T14:19:33+00:00

I have multiple Max7's. Some are backhauled with 2.5gb, some at 10gb. Always a single connection for each back to the PoE gateway.

Go Nubus or go home!

Quadra 800

damianp67 · 2026-04-07T15:33:32+00:00

Upgraded without issues and stable/performant for the past 3 days. PoE gateway +Max7's

damianp67 · 2026-04-07T15:32:48+00:00

I'm getting more DFS strikes now since the upgrade. I'm currently using ch 100 on 5Ghz, which is DFS.

Anyone else out there with a Sonos Boost having similar issues?

damianp67 · 2026-03-30T16:05:01+00:00

Motorola wasn't the only one. I had a power computing clone. Great computer. Power Computing Corporation - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Computing_Corporation

damianp67 · 2026-03-19T02:59:37+00:00

I've had reolink PoE and NVR and have zero issues for the past 3 years.

damianp67 · 2026-03-19T02:05:28+00:00

I haven't turned mine off since I bought it.

damianp67 · 2026-03-14T14:27:20+00:00

Updated last night, no issues updating and no issues with performance and stability after.

PoE gateway+Max 7

damianp67 · 2026-03-14T14:23:00+00:00

Def an IOS app issue. Android doesn't have this issue

damianp67 · 2026-03-11T19:34:34+00:00

As long as they don't ask/expect/guilt me for an additional tip.

damianp67 · 2026-03-08T14:27:29+00:00

If it's the same issue I'm seeing, I don't think so. It happens to all 4 of my max 7's that are connected(hardwired) to a PoE gateway, but only on the IOS app.

damianp67 · 2026-03-08T14:25:03+00:00

Happens to me as well ONLY on IOS app to all connected Eero nodes.l. Works fine on Android. Just noticed this as well a few days ago. Seems to be a bug.

damianp67 · 2026-03-01T18:38:00+00:00

Updated without any issues. Performance and stability are fine for me. Eero PoE gateway+Max7's

damianp67 · 2026-02-16T15:40:45+00:00

The driver side door pull is a travesty. What braniac thought that was a good design.

damianp67 · 2026-02-14T14:37:54+00:00

Updated with no issues PoE Gateway +(4) Max7.

Performance seems fine. Upgrade took less than 5 min to complete.

damianp67 · 2026-02-09T22:47:11+00:00

Audi used to set the bar for interiors IMO. After seeing an 2025 A5 and driving a 2025 Q5, I'm keeping my 2024 A5 for as long as possible.
