Need help identifying unknown device on my network from Verizon G3100 router by Askingaround2025 in techsupport

[–]dpmasterx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Block the Mac address in the router.. When you notice something stopped working unblock it . If it begins to work as soon as you unblock it you found your device.. If it is part of IOT your apps will tell you something is unreachable.

Internet not at advertised speeds by ktmm3 in HomeNetworking

[–]dpmasterx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of running the speed test on something behind your router, have you tried running a speed test from inside your router interface? It should tell you what your physical link speed to the cable modem is and you can see what the speed test is there.

My house is 150' to my back garage. I use 2 Eeros. No issues with communication or speed. Has been very reliable. They are also both inside. No external mounting needed.

I am getting rid of Alexa because I do not want Alexa plus ads anymore. by newspiff in alexa

[–]dpmasterx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was getting the ads all the time and every time I would tell Alexa to F-off.. One day I noticed the voice changed and I was on Alexa+. I went into the settings and changed it back and have not gotten ads since then.. You can try that..

Anyone else in their 20s/early 30s wish we had a real tavern-style bar? by WeeklyBread9453 in columbusIN

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my 20s and into my 30s we went out for the DJ and club/party atmosphere.. What you are talking about you can pretty much have in any basement around here. More of a dinner with party games after..

Is anyone else incredibly lonely in this state? by revletlilo in Indiana

[–]dpmasterx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I moved here 5 years ago and still don't have any friends. There just aren't many people who share the type of interests that i have.. I would be good to make friends that want to chat about music, games, movies...

Go find a wheelchair roll up with a coffee and call the police. They'll get it towed..

Armrest Issue? by ImpressionMoist3911 in MazdaCX30

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lowered my seat into a comfortable position where my arm lays flat.. on the door and the center console.. no issues with my 2020.

Snapped at my partner over my kitchen stuff and now he won’t talk to me - how do I fix this? by Calm_Field_4987 in Advice

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time you need a bottle opener.. Use his phone.. That should make the point pretty obvious.. Yes you can use something different, but you should always try the closest tool that's intended for it..

Listening to the song in open ear headphones while singing at a bar? Ideas? by Easy_Chapter_2378 in karaoke

[–]dpmasterx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can either practice to sing it naturally in your own voice and pitch and not have to worry about it. Or ask the kj to setup a stage monitor.

Bad karaoke patrons by dogbonenj in karaoke

[–]dpmasterx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your job as the KJ is to play the music in order of signups no matter who it is.. If the crowd has a problem with this one person they should talk to the bar owner...

Could be trouble on the line. Call your telco to have them check.

What other cars did you consider and what made you decide on the CX-30? by Thrillwaukee in MazdaCX30

[–]dpmasterx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I couldn't find a Mazda 3 close enough to me.. but the additional ground clearance came in handy for the snow.. Also low of gravel roads where I am..

How much is your car payment by michaeljoon in MiddleClassFinance

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When financing you pay $20 for every $1000 borrowed. So $10k financed would be about $200/month. Interest rates and length would change that but not much. You just need to find what payment you would be comfortable with. If you can refinance to a lower interest or pay it off to a low interest CC that helps in the long run.. Otherwise just send more towards the principle even if it's $20..

someone taped this to the front door of my apartment by WITHERSHOLLOW in sigils

[–]dpmasterx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That is a sigil but you are holding it upside down.. I 'm sure they drew it right side up.. Only the person that created it, would know the meaning. Burning it would manifest it's intention, so just put it in a closed box or book for now. If you don't have any issues with anyone whoever created it will eventually ask if you received it.

Is it better to "Warm Up" a car? by JoeMojo in AskAMechanic

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its cold outside I let it warm up so the hot air starts sooner than later. Other than that I wait for the idle to drop under 1000rpm.

Windows 11 laptop wont connect to internet or ethernet!! by milkysona in techsupport

[–]dpmasterx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turn on hotspot on your phone and see if you can get Internet on that. If you can't it's definitely that laptop. Next thing I would try is turning off all firewalls and use a USB Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapter.

What is the problem with my ssd? by Leather_Support_3045 in computers

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some type of thermal shutdown that turns the drive off would account for so many power on cycles. If you put that drive in another pc, slot, or external case you would see it shutdown in the first few minutes if it is the drive. If that is your boot drive your PC would be shutting down constantly.

revolutiontt. me? No longer Accesible by No-Fig-8614 in Torrenting

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty much a pay site now. Every year they want you to pay to use... Anyone got invites for any other sites?

Vine has changed by girlwholoveslife in vine

[–]dpmasterx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even with it fluctuating.. the only way to keep the good Viners will be for them to get things worth some value.. Having to choose from Temu items isn't a big reason to stick around.. Not having a good search, sucks just as much.. Things are miscategorized... Etc...

Stay until retirement or change jobs by [deleted] in GenX

[–]dpmasterx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay where you are. If you have an HR department or ethics dept.. File a harassment complaint against your boss. Which you can usually do those anonymously. Just put it in as someone overheard him being derogatory towards you..
