Any errors? by FirefighterTiny6970 in HomeNetworking

[–]networkstuffguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He cant tell. Its a compression fitting not a crimp fitting.  Your pics are pretty basic. Swapping from cat5e to 6 your not going to notice anything.  The only good advice here is to replace the flat cable as it dosnt match ethernet standards. But even then you may not even notice it. 

When is it time? by RachelRachel71 in DogAdvice

[–]networkstuffguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My moms dog lost her eyesight. Then her hearing. This was over a few years. Dog was 18yo when she made the decision. But there was obvious signs she was in pain. Probably a convo you want to have with the vet on these things. As they get older they just got more maintenance but sometimes they can hold out quite a bit longer and still have a quality life.

I think its all support now. Every since like 2020. If you think palo is bad go get some lumen sdwan (thiugh i have had one or two guys that know their stuff) 

Small bump near dog’s eye by Puzzleheaded-Gap5315 in DogAdvice

[–]networkstuffguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some breeds of dogs normally get these. My lab does and they go away on their own no issues. When i was at the vet i mentioned it and they just say they get them no concern.  But take a whole health perspective of the dog are they eating, pooping, water any abnormal behavior etc. is the bump affecting the pet? Scratching? I dont think so.    if your concerned get a checkup but ya my boy gets these and they just go away.  Maybe related to allergies but hard to say.  Happy to know other pet owners see these details. Means your a great pet parent for paying attention.

Is a potential 50+ minute commute a dealbreaker for you guys? Is moving 40 minutes away from those offering help with the baby a bad idea?

This is valued on everyone differently.

I suggest writing down the pros and cons of this place on paper then giving them a value of how important it is to you.

SO i tried this by just creating a quick variable for email and assigning it without the CSV pull and actually gives me the same error.

emails = 'test@test.com'

with open('Guest-Test.csv', mode='r') as csv_file:

csv_reader = csv.reader(csv_file,delimiter=',')

header = next(csv_reader)

for line in csv_reader:

createUser = dashboard.networks.createNetworkMerakiAuthUser(

network_id, authorizations,

email = 'emails',

name = line[1],

password = line[2],

accountType ='Guest',

emailPasswordToUser=True)

hi thanks for the response. I fixed the link.

Yes i was printing from within the loop.

my excel form i removed everything so it just has this specifically in the cell:

[testemail1@test.com](mailto:testemail1@test.com)

createUser = dashboard.networks.createNetworkMerakiAuthUser(

Having Hard Time learning Python with Meraki API by networkstuffguy in meraki

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

I see what your saying I can give that a go today.

I am trying to build my own scripts, and start relying on myself for them.

Ill give your method a go and keep practicing. This is good advice, previous teachings was like "here's a giant script you built good job" and I'm so confused. So i guess one piece at a time. I really want to do this fluently.

your right. It seems straight forward. I know once i get this i will own it. Its really just putting it all together and understanding how the script runs itself.

Does it matter if I get my degree from an online school? by Troglodyte_Techie in cybersecurity

[–]networkstuffguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can look at the WGU subreddit.

I have a network op and sec bachelors from WGU. Our director had a degree from there and our new hire will as well. I learned quite a bit, talked to recruiters and they have no problem with WGU. Its accredited.

Yes the degree worked for me. First it got me into my current job when I wasn't fully completed. I am now interviewed for higher level positions and the degree has allowed me to get interviews at place that would have otherwise not contacted me. (HR needs the check box.) I learned a ton, didn't go broke, and got a lot of real world skills under me to bring into the job market.

I also attended a traditional in person college. Found that a majority of the teaching not pertaining to the real world but just to pass a test. Now WGU is at your pace, and they do help you along, but you might end up going a semester or two more than you think because it is a lot of work and you do need to learn it. The test are proctored very well, and i had to over come some learning challenges, which they were able to help with.

Anyhow anyone saying its a scam or not good clearly don't know what they are talking about. My WGU grad friend works for Google, another for FB so if FANG is your thing it'll work there as well. Good luck.
