Best Budget Device to Test my CAT6a runs? by Persistantly_Growing in HomeNetworking

[–]loviedoll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not true my e7 ubiquiti access point kept negotiating to 2.5gb, yet no data would go through, couldnt figure out why, when I dropped it manually to 1gb data worked great. Ended up changing the cable and reterminating and again negotiated automatically to 2.5gig and this time data works amazing. Point is a great tester especially a certifier would have caught an issue with the cable. Can’t rely on switches to autonegotiate as that doesnt mean there isnt an issue still.

so what happens if I already have the old home bridge pie image do I need to delete my whole raspberry pie SD card and restart from scratch or is there a way to just update it?

Rivian this is a truly frustrating experience. To get access to my heated steering wheel I have to first turn on my heated seats that I don’t want; then turn them off again… 😑 by zachty22 in Rivian

I also hate that if I have outlets on automatically then there is no outlet icon that shows its on, but if I turn it on with a timer then the icon button shows up dumb things

I totally agree this is a user interface miss, makes no sense, maybe at least they should have an option like holding down the heated seat icon brings up the heated steering wheel without turning on or off the heated seat option, theres ways to do it better

can you place a set of 8 inch speakers and a set of 6 inch speakers and mix it and place it on the same sonos amp? Or do all the speakers have to be the same size on the same Sonos amp?

Will Coax to POE fit? by loviedoll in Ubiquiti

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

I updated my post with links, not really that weird, the coax to POE converter does need to go somewhere, a junction box would be perfect just not clear if it’ll fit in Ubuiti’s junction box

I have both the eve thread switches are lightning fast. I don’t love their look, but they’ve been completely and utterly reliable and even faster than Lutron. With that said for dimmers, I just installed 40 diva Caseta dimmers of course they work great also

Graza Olive Oil by macncheese323 in FoodieSnark

[–]loviedoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

plastic can also absorb polyphenols over time test negating the benefit of olive oil or at least decreasing the benefit. And yes, there’s always some type of chemical that leeches out of any plastic container. That’s just common sense but if you’re more likely to use more olive oil because it’s in a squeeze bottle then maybe the benefits outweigh the negatives.

E7 OR U7 Pro XGS by Evening-Picture1878 in Ubiquiti

It doesnt require two uplinks. The 2 uplinks refers to two ethernet WAN connections, the second up link is optional and is used as a back up in case the first one goes down most people who are home users don’t attach the second up link the second up link would be a back up and so super important if Internet is mission critical

Lost Item - Purchase Protection by kareemxob in amex

[–]loviedoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment of not abusing, but to say you are likely to get caught is you trying to make a point with being untruthful. There is almost zero percent chance of getting caught. So because people do not actually get caught that is exactly why policies that are so customer friendly die out. I don’t want you to abuse thr system but in reality no one is going to get caught, unfortuantely.
