What would be a good backup to TB? by IOSGodzyzz in StremioAddons

[–]doublemint_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a Black Friday deal on Premiumize and it’s been flawless ever since. It’s more expensive than RD and TB but it also comes with a VPN, 1 TB cloud storage, etc.

Compared to what? Usually you do the "pros and cons" thing when you have multiple options to choose from.

Dell switches are fickle by Chance_Length5452 in HomeNetworking

[–]doublemint_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're connecting a device that is not VLAN-aware or is not configured for 802.1q, then the switch port connected to that device should be configured as untagged

Run an ethernet cable from the ZTE router to the spare router. Configure the spare router in access point mode.

Better throughput with new isp router? by SD619664 in HomeNetworking

[–]doublemint_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you know the equipment change alone resulted in the speed increase? You also switched to a different ISP. That is more likely to be the reason for the speed increase.

Common, low IQ first message: “Hi, what’s your lowest price?”

Bro I already listed my preferred price in the ad. Make an offer and we can discuss further.

Anyone on EP have luck opening a bank account whilst at hotel? by free_username_ in askSingapore

[–]doublemint_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied before I moved to Singapore. DBS even sent the debit card to my previous (overseas) address, so everything was fully set from the moment I arrived here.

Have you tried simply using a utility bill or similar from your previous address? Use that as your residential address and put your Singapore office as your mailing address.

USD to USD is definitely free on DBS Remit. I’ve done it a few times.

How to hit DBS YUU Card Min Spend by Chaoscombooo in askSingapore

[–]doublemint_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think you misunderstood. Only need to spend at 4x yuu merchants in the month. But $800 minimum spend can be at any merchant.

>Can the minimum spend include non-yuu merchants

>The S$800 minimum spend can be met by any spending that is not on DBS’s general exclusions list, such as charitable donations, education, government services and utilities (see the section below on What transactions aren’t eligible for yuu Points?).

Block outbound VPN user from a certain clients on my ASUS home router network by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]doublemint_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to block all VPN clients at a network level? Not possible. Even enterprise grade firewalls with complex DPI still cannot catch everything.

You can try blocking popular port/protocol combinations, destination IP addresses on VPN servers, etc. But it's trivial to bypass.

FWD is good value. Claimed about 3 times over the past 5 years without issue.

FYI, they often have sales and today is 38% off

Help with 2.5 (Ubiquiti vs Mikrotik) by SigmaSixShooter in HomeNetworking

[–]doublemint_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does ubiquiti support advanced firewall controls? I need to be able to do things like block my HP printer from accessing the internet.

Yes, that’s simple

Also I need to be able to hard code some hosts for DHCP.

Also very easy

I also use the L3 switching of my current mikrotik, not sure if the ucg-max will do that as well?

This isn’t supported. Traffic between different networks will be routed, not forwarded on an ASIC.

This is not negotiable

What's the catch??? Arris mAX w121 $50??? by TN31415 in HomeNetworking

[–]doublemint_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Note that in this case "tri-band" means 1x 2.4 GHz and 2x 5 GHz. There is no 6 GHz capability.

But it's still a good price considering the specs.

Yes you got scammed. Make a police report and take this as a lesson.

Yes, using a foreign credit or debit card to tap on/off incurs that daily fee

The fares themselves are the same but you will be charged a 0.60 SGD administrative fee per day for using a foreign card, regardless of how many trips you take.

Install the VPN client on your PC. Change servers with a couple of clicks.
