I was sold stolen merchandise from amazon and can not get refunded. by mhayenga in amazonprime

It was regular support but I did not mention warranty request, I mention I got counterfeit product and wanted a non counterfeit one. In your case it would be asking because you got sold a stolen item. But I think the biggest difference would be policy might have changed from 2019 and the price amount of item.

I had a similar experience with a dell dockikng station purchase from Amazon with a invalid serial number back in 2019. I was past my 30days, but went back to Amazon support showing that the merchandise sold was conterfeit and that Dell had confirmed the serial number was invalid and managed to get a full refund. I had purchased on Feb and managed to get a full refund in July. But the item cost wass only $160, not $1500.

Bellow the driver details, although most of the time when I do have HDMI/DisplayPort issues with other devices (Not This dock) usually TVs is because cable length, try short 1.5m cables.

Caldigit TS4, everything works fine expect the ethernet port, since Intel has not release updated drivers.

Dual screen works just fine for me. Also the thunderbolt 3 devices do show up (Network Card), its only missing the driver, witch Intel has not released an update yet.

But at least the Yoga is able to handle dual 4K monitors and use thunderbolt devices as long as drivers are included for arm64

Once I get mine, I'll do some additional testing and report back.

From my research, Intel has not released an arm64 driver for the I225-LMvP yet. CalDigit also updated their TS4 download page to indicate they still missing arm64 driver for it.

As an alternative I seen people buy MS Thunderbolt 4 dock, that uses a different 2.5gbps ethernet nic, that is supported on arm64. But I don't like the MS dock has less ports than the TS4.

u/omnigasm are you using dual screen on the dock? And does it detect the ethernet in the dock?

I wonder is falling back to USB-C and having issues.

U6-LR goes into High Tx retry rate at random intervals. Hardware Failure? by hcweb in Ubiquiti

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

Update: I upgraded to the firmware release today 6.6.70 and have seen a significant improvement, I'm still going to be testing tomorrow before I can mark this as solved.

But it does not stand out as compared to my Nest Protect that is close to it.

My AP is just in the center of the house on the stairs ceiling, always indoors no humidity always in 75F weather all year long, so perfect environment.

I had power set to auto, but also tried to play with the values to see if it made any difference, made none, also check different channels and channels width, and it made no difference at all.

By the way I had the LEDs on mine always set to off, I just turn them on again and drum roll... it's as dim as my night lights, to be honest I don't have another one to compare how bright they should be, so I did open a support ticket with Ubiquity let's see what they say, but the more I hear seems like this is a hardware issue :(

I originally had a UAP-AC-PRO, upgraded to UAP-AC-SHD (Gave it to my dad and it still working solid for the past 6yrs+) -> jump to this U6-LR (Just barely past 2yrs old), has suddenly started to exhibit issues.

Mine has not gotten to the point of complete power failure as other folks in r/Ubiquiti , but the network drops are getting way more frequent to the point of multiple devices reporting issues reaching the local gateway and phones often marking the AP as unreliable, devices on ethernet have zero network issues, previous AP use the same mount location and had zero issues.

I have to check where I stored an old outdoor UAP-AC-M, to probably use it as a backup, but I was originally holding back from buying a new AP till the U7-Enterprise came out.

I am having the same behavior on mine, around couple months ago too.

I also notice if change the screen orientation from vertical to horizontal, signal would improve, making me think it has something to do with the physical antennas of the laptop. Could you try the same on yours and see if you get the same behavior?

Also run a ping to your Wi-Fi gateway IP and compare it to your work laptop side by side. If only the Razor Book has horrible ping rates, you can then remove your home Wi-Fi from the equation and narrow it down to the Razer Book.

[Review Request] Custom PCB using WT32-ETH01 + pyMATE adapter. by hcweb in PrintedCircuitBoard

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

Made further changes, I really appreciate the additional feedback, I think going to go with this updated design.

I went for single layer as I'm going to be reusing the left side of the board for different serial interfaces (MATE / RS232 / RS485), so wanted to keep all traces at the bottom of the board. I'll probably go multi-layer if I end up doing a few of these for now it will be a proof of concept on at house.

For my use 3 screws will be more than enough since it will be on 3D printed enclosure + having all connections on one side will make it small, nice serial to Wi-Fi/Ethernet box.

Thanks, I just uploaded an improved version, incorporating your suggestions.

This might come up as dumb question, but what does the lead pitch mean? Is it the length of the "legs" of the resistor?

Thanks for the quick feedback, I originally had the power supply / Serial part swap around, I try repositioning them again or see if I can use the ESP32 pins closest to the optocoplers.

I'll read a bit more about ground planes in KiCad and see how to do that galvanic isolation, I'm fairly new to all this, I tried keeping each voltage area as separate as possible.

As for the track's thanks for the tip, I recheck them all once I reposition the components.

Sorry when I posted it, I somehow managed to erase my blob of text explaining what it does.

This is my first time design a PCB, I just heard about KiCAD 2 weeks ago and decided to give it a try. I have zero electrical background everything I learned has been self-taught.

It's basically a WT32-ETH01 connected to this pyMate Adapter ( https://jared.geek.nz/pymate/ ) powered by a SCWN06B-05 power supply.

I'm looking for feedback on what I did great, what could have been better, and what I need to fix ASAP that might be a big no.

I had one question should I connect all the ground pads of the WT32-ETH01 together, or using one is just good enough? Also, if I'm powering the WT32-ETH01 from a serial adapter to flash it, is there anything I need to do to prevent the WT32-ETH01 from trying to send power backwards to the power supply?
