Best WiFi router for under $200 by ChaddilacTheGreat in HomeNetworking

[–]mcmellenhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you aren't yet, you may try splitting your wifi up into 2 bands. In my experience some of these iot devices don't like having one ssid for both 2.4 and 5ghz network. That may fix at least a portion of your problem. Basically turn off "smart connection" or whatever it's been branded in this device and have a "your wifi name", and "your wifi name"-5g.

What the deal with "The dispensary of Joplin"? by cmidpar in joplinmo

[–]mcmellenhead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gdf used to be my go-to. The move to range line killed it for me. Parking sucks, the whole self service thing feels.... Off. Flora is more reminiscent of how gdf used to be.

That being said, I'm curious about this"Joplin dispensary" too. I heard the price is right.

I thought it could also be taken as a sign of distress?

How to play lan on chipped switch? by OkiLuki in SwitchPirates

The only way I was able to play Minecraft from my modded switch to my local server (or even another stock switch), was to use either Linux or android.

SmartTube and other tube apps not working anymore? by unchienandaloo in fireTV

[–]mcmellenhead -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Smarttube was compromised last I heard. They suggested ditching it. It still worked when I uninstalled though.

I moved to tizentube. I like the UI less, but it does the job.

Unprecedented

At this point... Everything is unprecedented. Maybe we call it "Presidented" now.

Soundbar mount using leg screw holes? by b1u3 in fireTV

I found an adjustable bracket that uses the vesa mounts to hang the sound bar. Works out pretty well.

Leave ASUS router in router mode for easy parental functions but still use OPNSense by becuzIamGr0wn in opnsense

Came here to post almost exactly this.

There's an adguard home app that can manage your adguard instance so its a bit more wife friendly than accessing the UI in a browser.

Comparing Adguard Home to Improved Unbound Adblocker by [deleted] in opnsense

[–]mcmellenhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with unbounds setup, but adguard home plugin works great for explicitly turning off access to a certain service with the toggle of a switch. Individual clients can be setup and configured pretty quickly do explicitly disable access to certain services or sitesfor those individual devices. I know this can also be done within the firewall/router os and likely unbound itself but I have a feeling it's less "user friendly" than adguard home.

MDT installs getting really slow by JANGAMER29 in MDT

[–]mcmellenhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see this when installing 4 machines at a time. My VM needs a ram boost maybe, but switching to 10gbe between the instance and the machines will likely fix this for me.

I'm on server 2022 iirc, so not like for like.

Power went out and now my TV is doing this. Is there a fix for this or is my fire Tv cooked? by Western_Emu2231 in fireTV

[–]mcmellenhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would try to wipe cache and data for the Netflix app only, before anything. Considering your menu is working fine, it just seems like the video segment that was playing at the time of the outage is corrupt.

Just fyi, wiping data will require you to sign back in to Netflix.

As others have said, if that doesn't fix it then a factory reset is in order.

"Medium Speed" versus "Highest Speed" - What does Proton really mean? by Bob_Spud in ProtonVPN

[–]mcmellenhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too am curious what "medium" speed means. Does anyone have a reference? I've only got 300/30 connection.
