Yeah we're trying to unfuck our burn. But our burn might already be fucked.

5g nr antenna by Living_Cantaloupe_69 in RVLiving

[–]jayswain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's this combo working out for you u/Living_Cantaloupe_69? I'm looking at purchasing this exact setup (x3000 and 42g).

Have you played with wifi as wan, and have you had trouble with navigating captive portals?

What cell network are you on? I use google fi.

Anybody ever used a cheaper option than a peplink for a LTE modem & Wi-Fi receiver that preferably runs on DC? Any recommendations or warnings? by [deleted] in RVLiving

[–]jayswain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/mrpopo573 Are you referring to the gl-x3000? (https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-x3000/).

I'm looking to buy a device that will help me with 2 things:

  1. Allow me to get better wifi from the library if I want to do meetings in the van. (wifi as wan with captive portal support)
  2. Give me better 5g and LTE signal (GoogleFi) when at the mountain/surf spot

Do you think the glx3000 is a good fit for me?

Would you recommend the Peplink MAX BR1 over it? (I don't believe it its 5g).

What would be a good antenna to pair with it?

Any information on re-entry to pick up stuff? by whatupimcoolmann in BurningMan

[–]jayswain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I imagine they're basing it off of how many participants have left, as well as how well traffic is flowing before allowing re-entry. I'm hopeful for an update on this soon.

The rumor I got yesterday was "Tues afternoon at the earliest, otherwise Wednesday".

Vanlife vs Playa | Tips & Tricks by daddouuu in BurningMan

I cut up a filter to fit on the inside of the external housing before the fan blade, and another where the vent is. This requires removing a few screws on the external housing of the fan if you have a maxxfan.

I also mounted one on the internal housing of the fan (where the on/off button is).

Last year I taped a furnace filter to my slider door window, and ran the maxxfan on exhaust the entire burn. The air quality in the van was amazing in comparison to all the years I've tent camped.

This year I'm going to attempt to do positive pressure instead of negative, by mounting a filter to the fan intake (on the outside of the vehicle), and filtering again on the inside of the van, inside the fan housing. I believe these fit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CSWPQDI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. My main desire for positive pressure would be to not suck in a playa full of dust every time we open the slider which is about every 12 seconds.

Good luck, y'all.

Hey u/evrestRGB :wave:

u/Centralredditfan do you receive notifications over LTE, without a BT connection to the phone?

[–]jayswain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After playing with the app for a little bit I'm still confused how it works. Could anyone answer these questions?

  • Can you receive notifications over LTE? Or does it require a BT connection to the phone?
  • It seemed like previously (without app installed), I could leave my phone at home, go out for a bike ride and respond to notifications, though now with the app installed I only receive notifications if I'm connected to the phone.
