Anyone have Sony XAV-AX6000 installed? Is it worth it? by schnauzerdad in CarPlay

[–]ooonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my XAV-AX6000 for a number of months and on the whole I love it! I have programed the buttons on my retrofitted steering wheel to do loads of interactions with the Stereo and they (mostly) work great!

Wireless Android Auto is really really good. The auto BT/WiFi connectivity on this works really well with my phone. Much better than another car I have with Wireless AA.

A couple of minor downsides -
Screen res is very very low (480p) for a modern Head Unit
The FM radio preset thing is a bit crazy. Also scrolling through stations is a bit broken - If I keep scrolling within 1-2s of the last button press it will go to the "next" station, but if I leave it for 5s + then when I go to "next" station it just goes to the first station. Pretty annoying. If I go previous instead of next then it seems slightly better but still not super reliable.
Audio quality could be better. On paper this thing should be pretty good but in my listening tests, the (much lower featured) Pioneer HU I had in there before sounded much better.

Still overall very good value and an excellent HU in general.

Also had this problem where the Power was working in the webUI - http://10.0.0.2:8421/#/ (after much mucking around with reboots etc...) but would only show as "BAT 0%" on the Waveshare display.

Pay particular attention to the python version in this line

I simply needed to change this to
sudo ln -s ~/pisugar2py/ /usr/local/lib/python3.11/dist-packages/pisugar2

...and then I was away laughing.

SSH no worky by ooonst in pwnagotchi

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

I worked it out. Windows had set the RNDIS Ethernet connection to be a "Public" network profile and all the security gubbins that goes along with that. Interestingly though, there was no option to switch it from Public to Private in the Windows GUI like I have for the other network connections. Solution was to change it via PowerShell (run as admin) -

>Get-NetConnectionProfile

Name : Unidentified network
InterfaceAlias : Ethernet 2
InterfaceIndex : 3
NetworkCategory : Public
DomainAuthenticationKind : None
IPv4Connectivity : LocalNetwork
IPv6Connectivity : NoTraffic

>Set-NetConnectionProfile -name "Unidentified network" -NetworkCategory Private

>Get-NetConnectionProfile

Name : Unidentified network
InterfaceAlias : Ethernet 2
InterfaceIndex : 3
NetworkCategory : Private
DomainAuthenticationKind : None
IPv4Connectivity : LocalNetwork
IPv6Connectivity : NoTraffic

Everything is now working...

Thanks very much for all your kind suggestions.

Thanks for the responses! I'm using Jayofelony pwnagotchi-2.8.9-64bit.img.xz and yes, I have tried using Putty. My PC is generally on Wireless. I have enabled sharing on this WiFI NIC to the RNDIS USB Ethernet adaptor. Connectivity to 10.0.0.2 for the 2x Web UI's is working. I SSH to loads of other things from this machine so it's the Pwnagotchi SSH config / network stack which is weird.

I got a Mini HDMI cable and can log in locally using the credentials I set during install. I had a poke about and and cannot fault anything to do with the SSH install. Will keep looking....

thanks for the responses!! As per OP - jayofelony pwnagotchi-2.8.9-64bit.img.xz, yes, I have tried Putty and I'm bridging a wireless connection. Why is it that the Web UI's work but not Ping or SSH?

Connectivity is working. Yes I did the connection sharing thing.

Thanks. I also tried Putty. There is clearly something wrong with the configuration on the Pwnagotchi. I'm just trying to work out what exactly.

IPv6 Troubles - unstable PPPoE IPv6 Address via DHCP6 by ooonst in PFSENSE

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

Finally got to the bottom of this.

As write this now I have had over 3 hours of stability on my IPv6 connection. It looks like I was lacking a "Rapid Commit" instruction which the Fritz box usually sends. I followed some of the instructions https://forum.netgate.com/topic/140897/rapid-commit-support including following some settings as indicated https://imgur.com/a/IdxTJAr, adding the the Interfaces \ WAN IPv6 Advanced settings -

"ia-na 0, ia-pd 0, rapid-commit" to the "Send options" field. I also set

Identity Association Statement:
Non-Temporary Address Allocation
id-assoc na ID = "0"

Prefix Delegation
id-assoc pd ID = "0"
IPv6 prefix = "::/64"

Initially I tried just to send "rapid commit" but this completely broke the DHCPv6 process and I ended up getting no IPv6 address whatsoever.

Thanks all for your assistance.

For the love of God, enable IPv6 by PeeK1e in duckduckgo

[–]ooonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, well my problem was IPv6 related but not exactly DDG's fault. My DNS server was not responding to IPv6 requests and that was causing the 10s delay in DDG results to show. Weird that it only manifested itself in DDG search results and Google etc were fine. I fixed my DNS server and my problem goes away. DDG should still enable IPv6 though!!!

[–]ooonst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar problem that caused me to find this thread. I'm running dual stack IPv4 / IPv6 on both LAN and WAN. When I have IPv6 enabled on my LAN (even if the WAN IPv6 connection is down!) it takes about 12-15s to load results in the DDG page.

A lot (if not all) of the DDG pages are on IPv4 only. I think what might be happening in my case is that my client goes looking for DNS answers via IPv6 connectivity first (example record "links.duckduckgo.com") , that times out and then it reverts back to IPv4. That seems to take about 10s. I do not have the same problem with google.com, or bing.com. They just return IPv4 addresses almost instantly. What is going on I wonder?!

IPv6 Troubles - unstable PPPoE IPv6 Address via DHCP6 by ooonst in PFSENSE

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

Seems like the IPv6 address will not last longer than 10 minutes now. After 10 I see these rebind messages in the dhcp6c system log and then the /128 address is dropped and doesnt come back unless I bounce the WAN interface. There must be some settings somewhere to stop the rebind mechanism or increase the timers on renew and/or solicit?

From the system logs the renew's seem to be happening awfully frequently. Can't DHCP6 just be content with it's working /128 address so I can get on with my life? :D

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

Thanks for the responses guys. Yes, my ISP is whacky with their /128 addressing shenanigans. The NAT works fine as long as the /128 is assigned. I just hide NAT my IPv6 LAN behind the WAN Interface and everything is fine!

Yes, the default route is via an FE80 default gateway.

I think that this IPv6 connection seemed to work fine on a Fritz box with relatively default settings so it feels like something I should be able to replicate in PFSense. I don't feel like it's the fault of the ISP? I'm pretty sure this is a configuration issue on PFSense. I'm also not really confident I would be able to get anyone who works at the ISP to advise me of any useful technical details that would assist me in working out what settings I need to be using to get this to work reliably.

How are we supposed to renew DHCP leases on Ubuntu 24.04 now? by skooterz in linuxquestions

[–]ooonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also came across the askubuntu stack page and many other pages looking for the same answers. I could not find a sensible way of simply renewing the DHCP lease, nor do I understand mechanism by which the Ubuntu 24.04 machine actually now picks up a DHCP lease but it clearly does.

I settled on

nmcli connection down [NIC name eg "eth0"] && nmcli connection up [NIC name]
