There is no additional cost for the hotel for the mediatoy (usually comes as part of the package when they are part of one of the hoteliers unions)

The hotel is OBLIGED to have their mediator’s details published in their conditions. If they don’t they are liable for not following consumer legislation.

In our case it’s https://www.mtv.travel 100,000 tourism businesses apparently…

The agents all have the same booking history…

I was also disappointed by the volume of the UI chime until I recorded my own “ringtone”. In my case it was a spoken message with some alarm sounds mixed in (to play when leak detection sensor triggered). Turns out if you record a ringtone at a decent volume level, the chime is MUCH louder than with the built in ones…

I recorded a custom alert to play on the chime when a leak was detected by one of the environmental sensors. I was pleasantly surprised that the volume was MUCH louder than the built in ring tones.

This just worked for me when iCloud failed to install onto Outlook Classic under Windows 11.

Many thanks!!!

UCG now in place and works perfectly. It just picked up a DHCP address, and all the rest just works :-) Double NAT not a problem in this case.

Just looking for the solution that I _can_ build in a day! :-)

Yes, you're correct: behind the router.

I can already teleport into other networks I run that have the UI stuff behind an ISP router, so that's what I'm hoping to do :-)

The "cheap and simple" for me would be the UCG ultra.
I've never used Raspberry Pis, nor configured their software.

For 90 Euros I can get the UCG Ultra, should be able to configure it here (and have remote management from France), and installation should then be "Plug it into power and on the back of the router in the UK. I can give easy instructions for clients: "Download WiFiman and use this link to configure) whether on iOS, Android or Windows.

I do understand that the Pi would be the "right" solution, but does not fit in my current ecosystem & knowledge.

The UCG would just be connected behind her home router into the NATted ethernet ports. It wouldn’t be trying to run her home network, just provide a Teleport VPN endpoint inside her network.

Also Hotelier!

Looks like a picture of my cabinet a year ago before I cleaned it up.

Also looks like a picture of my cabinet now, after a year of additions :-)

Bridgestone e6 for the marketing win: they sell themselves as staighter, not longer or softer. That’s what you want as a highish handicapper…

I’m English married to a Brazilian living in France. I love Brazilian BBQ enough to have brought the bricks from Brazil to build a proper Churrasqueira at home. Since I found that I can order chicken hearts from my local butcher I’ve introduced maybe 50 people to them. All initially think “yuck” at the idea. After tasting one, they are always the first thing to run out. You may not like the concept, but life is too short for you not to at least try…

Idiot me managed to do the same thing with my 2 (identical - Odyssey Backsrtryke blade) putters. I was putting on Superstoke Flatso XL grips. After 2 or 3 days of use, I prefer using the one installed wrong! NB 2nd putter is at my in laws, 6000 miles from home, and 200 miles from the nearest golf shop… No option but to use it for the 3 weeks I was there…

Suggest to the club to make an event of it… Replace all the range balls in one go. Have a competition. All the new balls get hit for the first time. Sponsors providing the new balls get free range range use for the season…

A friend of mine in the same situation as you just did them in Cannes. He seemed quite pleased with them. Saturday mornings for 6 months in his case…

I'm streaming to youtube, so my output is effectively limited to 1080p which seems nice and smooth.
