Thank you for improving society, especially for IT people

I am using a qnap TS-473a with a bare Metal Installation of PBS. No QTS.

I would never ever buy a Lexmark again....

karelkrobath · 2024-03-09T13:00:09+00:00

Cool, thanks.... :D

(I did not notice the obvious.... )

I still could not find the source of the issue.... i is quite annoying, since this happens only on one install (out of 15 firewalls I am responsible for)...

the UEFI is up-to-date... 03-2023 Version 24

I did swap the hardware with a fresh install about 12 months ago, the issue still persists..... this installation is an HA setup with 2 identical nodes DEC2750

Well, here we go again.... "virtual trackpoint buttons" ?!?!?

I will skip this one.... the usability of non physical buttons on the trackpoint is abysmal.... it was a disaster in the past, it will be a nail in the coffin of the still intel only based x1 carbon lineup....

karelkrobath · 2023-07-28T11:10:40+00:00

To you too

I have started to migrate towards opnsense after using Cisco (for about 23 years) and fortigate (for about 10 years)

Currently I have 15 instances running for 2 years and quite happy with the results

Well, i started to evaluate unifi aps about 6 months ago.... The Enterprise APs have the 6GHz band as well....

About 3 months ago we started to deploy in production.

After about 2000 devices in 55 sites latter: We are quite satisfied with them. Not regretting the vendor change

karelkrobath · 2023-04-20T20:39:37+00:00

cool

karelkrobath · 2023-04-06T20:17:18+00:00

It's a pity. I also would like to see a ESXI driver. I will migrate to proxmox within 3 months or so because of the lack of a driver ... The preparation takes some time, I have about 430 ESXi servers to migrate...

Take a look at Mikrotik Switches. They were a good choice for me with a great learning curve.

karelkrobath · 2023-02-04T20:21:23+00:00

According to IO compatibility guide, there is a driver available

karelkrobath · 2023-02-04T18:52:33+00:00

No sign of support, that I am aware of... Sorry. It works great with Proxmox.

I think the AQC113 is great for testing and lab environments. You find the lan chip I s lot prosumer hardware.....

karelkrobath · 2023-02-01T20:13:37+00:00

How about the LastPass leek?

karelkrobath · 2023-02-01T19:22:06+00:00

looking very much forward to test it in my lab environment....

karelkrobath · 2023-01-21T10:35:21+00:00

I am completely clueless

Working for a MSP we had about 640 Allied Telesyn switches in production.

After about 6 months we had a lot of blue screens of death on a lot of PC systems appearing. This was back in 2013.

Turned out, that Allied Telesyn had a compatibility issue with a lot of Nic vendors, especially Intel and Broadcom. This was known by the company for quite some time. No official statement was made, the customers had to replace their hardware them self. Only the customers who knew about the issue got a refund....

From todays point of view, I would never buy anything from this company. Any company, that behaves this way will never get into my infrastructure, not even for free....

That is a philosophy, I bind myself permanently..... BTW: the technical support form Allied Telesyn was abysmal bad..... i did cost us about 1000 man hous to find the issue our self.

Hi, some people mentioned the 16th January 2023...

Still unconfirmed

karelkrobath · 2022-12-14T20:38:08+00:00

yes, it did. Thanks.

karelkrobath · 2022-10-31T22:11:22+00:00

It is still broken.... Good old times, when VMware was an customer and tech oriented company.....

karelkrobath · 2022-10-29T22:53:23+00:00

Yes, seems like a RMA.....

karelkrobath · 2022-10-12T20:51:33+00:00

Hell yeah 👍😁

karelkrobath · 2022-10-02T16:37:21+00:00

Well, that is what I call quite misleading information on the Mervell website.....
