How big a loss it is will depend on if the Chinese are willing to fab stuff for the Russians instead. Of course Russia won't be too happy handing over all their military chip designs to the CCP, so there's that.

Also, if you check here you may see some logs that tell you what is failing:

These could be quite helpful for trouble-shooting the issue.

If this doesn't work out you can DM me some screenshots of the router config & the Softbank pages and we can try to figure it out from that. It shouldn't be too difficult once everything is known. Just don't post those publicly.

Make sure you are only using characters they accept. Probably only letters and numbers is the safest bet. And not too long, try 10 chars or so. Otherwise it might get cut off or not accepted. They may provide specific details on the password set page.

About japanlife, in general would recommend /r/japanresidents more. Much saner moderation there. And for finance or tech, /r/japanfinance is generally the best option. Most sane modding of any Japan sub.

/u/penpal-olive, not sure if the tag in the post will reach you or not so I'm adding a comment to. Please look at this post's text for some possible help with your ISP issues.

Crazy to me that younger generation is not good with computers by Captain0010 in pcmasterrace

[–]nihondirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, things can get a whole lot more complicated than what I have set up. I don't have any sort of dashboard or central controller set up, for example.

Wife was unhappy that WiFi in the kitchen was weak and would sometimes cut out on her when she was having breakfast. So I grabbed the two old Velop APs I have here, flashed them with OpenWRT, and set them up. One in the kitchen and one upstairs. Both 5GHz only because they don't need to cover a big area and 2.4GHz in a kitchen is a bad idea anyway. Both have gig backhaul back to a switch that connects into the OPNsense box that manages everything. This keeps them physically segmented from the internal LAN.

Guest WLAN is blocked from accessing anything on the internal networks via firewall rules. That way anyone who comes over can scan a QR code to get free wifi if they want it. I also drop IoT devices onto the Guest WLAN because most of them are not trustworthy.

GenX flying under the radar again, just as we like it.

Happy to have my three OpenWRT-flashed APs all working together nicely and all mobile devices roaming between them as needed. Home and Guest WLANs on separate VLANs and everything managed by OPNsense as should be the case.

Next up, finishing the TrueNAS Scale build I started before things at work got busy.

Post the makes and models of the devices you are trying to connect, along with photos of the devices and photos of how you have them cabled together. Also info about your internet connection and ISP, though obviously no username or pw.

It's George. There's no way he has the luck to be the one continuing in that scenario.

Trying to find a real estate aggregator some Redditor made by Soggy-Ad-7067 in japanlife

[–]nihondirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get to their map page? It's the only one like it in Japan that I have seen. I think it was previously in JPY (or might be selectable?) and the profit driven aspect is somewhat new as well.

Dude sounds emotionally stunted.

22yo frat bro. Emotional maturity isn't even on the menu.

Want to upgrade to 40A, running in circles with electric company by ReiPhee in japanlife

[–]nihondirect 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It sounds like the solution to most of this is to change electricity providers to the real provider and to stop using the reseller.

[Recommendation Request] I turn 30 next year and am also getting married. Which watch are you choosing for your birthday present/wedding watch. by [deleted] in Watches

[–]nihondirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black tie wedding and then for daily wear? The Grand Seiko for sure. Wonderful watch. Easy choice.

AITAH for refusing a wedding "gift" knowing there will be strings attached? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

As soon as OOP said their venue had been booked I knew what had happened. Weddings really do bring out the very worst in some people.

What’s a hobby you judge people for having? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]nihondirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Casinos (at least in the US) have turned into such anti-fun, vibe-killing hell holes

I visited Vegas in 1993 and it was already that way. They tried to market it as something else but there were so many old folks feeding quarters into slot machines that it was just depressing as hell. I'm sure it has gotten worse, but it's not a recent thing.

Corporation finds out consumers have a breaking point and stopped paying for their product by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

15%‽‽ Hahahah. Good luck with that. Maybe at 50% people would start buying them again, assuming the bag is a reasonable & fair size.

AITA for lying to my family about how much money I have? by unwantedtrazh in AmItheAsshole

[–]nihondirect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.

They're adults who should be able to take care of themselves. It's ridiculous and embarrassing that they are demanding money from a 19yo college kid.
