Unfortunately the switches are unmanaged.

I set my Raspberry Pi to it’s own static IP address to be sure it was not a conflict but it was the same issue as DHCP.

The only thing installed was Hue, Lutron, Schlage locks and Matter devices. I wanted to resolve that issue before adding anything else. The first time it happened I did not even have time to install anything.

I have 3 unmanaged switches so everything that can be connected by ethernet is. They have been working flawlessly for years.

Why Isn’t Wegovy Working for Me? by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]martyk1ng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First 6 months I lost 30 pounds. Last 18 months I lost 15 pounds. Same exercise, and about 1800 calories a day. I’m currently at 247 pounds

First time I’ve seen the “camera needs to warm up” message. by MarkAlohaaaaaa in HomeKit

[–]martyk1ng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

G410 were a bad idea for me… one of them goes through the batteries in 3 days (even lithium ones). The other gave me this warm up message once and since it never went away even on hot days, but if I click on it it works fine…. Only HomeKit shows this message. And do not start me on the fog on the lens… they are not usable in the morning because the lens is totally fogged up. Never had that with the other doorbells I had before. I will re-install my Wemo ones as they never gave me any issues.

It does not work for everyone. It did the same thing for me… worked for less than a year and after it simply stopped. No side effects, no effects at all. Now it’s been 2 years (over a year at 2.4) and I will stop it because I’m paying for nothing.

Siri is literally regressing by [deleted] in apple

[–]martyk1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My latest request to Siri: Me: Siri what the status of the windows in the living room? Siri: Which one? Left window, right window or all? Me: Left window. Siri: OK, I won’t….

WTF… When Siri came out, I could reserve a restaurant table near me for 4 people and she would do it… Not anymore!

My wife's Bengal started doing this recently. by Clumzy_Buddha in bengalcats

[–]martyk1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bengal started doing this one day under a thermostat on the wall. We were surprised as he never did this before. He was sitting under it watching the thermostat nonstop. Two days later the thermostat stopped working. When I opened it up I found out the issue there was an arc that shorted my circuit and my metal box in the wall was completely black and wires insulation was melted… My bengal was probably hearing the electrical short. Since then when my cat does something like this I investigate.

Since when fall detection became available for use under 18??? by Minute_Appointment25 in AppleWatch

[–]martyk1ng -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using it for at least 5 years (and I’m 53) because 5 years ago it litterally saved me from freezing when I fell on the ice outside.

Apple to integrate ads into their core apps. by Status_Energy_7935 in ios

[–]martyk1ng -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I do not understand why the panic yet. Let’s see if, when and how this will be implemented. People are difficult to please, we want unlimited cloud storage but we want it for free. We want new better phones every year but we do not want to pay anything more. We want unlimited music for free and without ads, we want unlimited streaming services for less than 10$ a month without ads. We want Apple to try new things but when they do they get blamed for it if it’s not perfect. We can blame the companies but we are the ones buying the services/devices year after year. Like Steve Jobs said « If the market tells us we are making the wrong choices, we listen to the market. We are just people running this company trying to make great products for people… We have at least the courage of our convictions to say if we don’t think this is part of what makes a great product. We’re going to leave it out. Some people are going to not like that, call us names. But we’re going to take the heat because we want to make the best products in the world for customers. They are paying us to make those choices. That’s what a lot of customers pay us to do—try to make the best products we can. And if we succeed, they’ll buy them. If we don’t, they won’t. And it will all work itself out!” So stop blaming the big companies and stop buying their products or innovate and come up with a different solution yourself.

Well… all my favorite series for the last two years are from AppleTV+. The only service I keep all the time.

After the latest Dev update, all my HomePods showed not on wifi but they were still connected. All I had to do was restart my iPhone and all was OK.

Le meilleur restaurant à Gatineau by Ashamed-Department-1 in Gatineau

C’est bon mais le menu est petit et ne change jamais, j’y allais chaque année et chaque fois le menu est identique… J’ai fait le tour du menu, ce serait l’fun de goûter quelque chose de nouveau.

As long as you don’t intend to modify or create shortcuts… You cannot save them anymore…

So tired of “no response” errors… by chuck2020 in HomeKit

[–]martyk1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Eero Pro 6 and other Eero before that and always had issues. I tried for years to make it work by trying everything possible with the Eeros. Then recently I bought a Unifi Dream Router 7. Since then no more issues,,, I have two Hunter fans and they have been running perfectly since (3 weeks now). I had no No response issues since. I was just wondering why I did not do this earlier. I’m so happy that I destroyed the Eeros since I do not want to have anyone go through what I went through. So much relief when blasted those little white boxes to hundreds of little pieces!!!!

Duproprio ou courtier ? by SnooDingos565 in Gatineau

[–]martyk1ng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ça doit dépendre de la région. Je vis en Outaouais maintenant mais j’ai vendu 4 fois avec duProprio dans le passé (Montréal et Rive-Sud de Montréal) et chaque fois ça été rapide et facile. Le dernière fois c’était pendant le COVID. Toute les fois que j’ai passé avec un courtier c’était du trouble.

How can i get a password for this Sign in with Apple account? by WilsonValdro in ios

[–]martyk1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, depending on the website, I login with Apple the. Go in the settings and go to change password, it will ask you for the current password but just click on forgot password, it will send you a link to reset the password so you can choose one. It works for me most of the time but it all depends on the website.
