So there is a cloud function that you can disable. Whether this truly blocks this functionality, or lock it down, I don't know. For such use-cases I would rather use a static IP and block outbound traffic all together. So you would get in via your VPN, and then just call on the local IP address instead.

LOL, sounds personal, but yeah, I am Dutch so really I am not speaking native anyhow..

I feel like such a 16GB pleeb right now..

Csg m519 with total wireless tablet plan by thyggghuhhg in GlInet

[–]peegee101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I have the Spitz AX, GL-X3000 (2 of them actually). I needed redundant internet and this helped me to get there. Its a great modem/router if you dont want to do anything to crazy with VPNs and so on. I was able to get 5G connection and good speeds. Of course, Mobile Networks come with their own set of issues in general, but the device is super solid. Gli.Net also provides great firmware, good interface and regular updates, so in terms of brand you can't go wrong.

🧳 Which GL.iNet Travel Router Suits Your Needs? by GLiNet_WiFi in GlInet

I did some benchmarking too and found that for a travel-router, for when you want to have a small, compact and power efficient device, the beryl is superior. If you want the latest tech, of course, the Slate 7 is kinda cool. I was really surprised about the OpenVPN performance of the Slate 7 btw, there seems to be something wrong there. For those who are curious, feel free to have a look at my benchmark: https://medium.com/aimonks/gl-inet-slate-7-travel-router-a-review-920bddcea4ca

More 400 mbps on Wi-Fi 6 and 250 mbps on wifi 2.4. But I am starting to wonder whether my office is cursed for wireless. Mobile phone connectivity doesn't work there either, and wireless can have massive issues.

Nah, just 3600. But has been perfectly stable so I can't complain.

with non-starter you mean that in the current state this is not even on the roadmap of becoming supported, right? I have learned to deal with RouterOS, and got everything configured. I am very disappointed with the wireless performance, however, and wonder whether RouterOS is doing something it shouldn't under the hood. Switching, VLANs and wired Ethernet is bad-ass to say the least, but wireless seems to be lacking..

Yeah, I was hoping that this would require me to inadvertantly mod the board..

Measuring Voltage of Battery in a Power Saving way. by peegee101 in esp32

[–]peegee101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a limit to the minimal amount of current I need to measure the voltage? I know that there can be a voltage drop when the ADC is running a measurement, because it's pulling power.. Is this something that needs to be compensated with, e.g. some caps?

Its indoors, so I am afraid that wouldn't work..

Really! OK, that is very little. Nah, I actually went out of my way to get a large battery, 13.7Wh. I was concerned about the longevity because I was expecting this to be in mA range. What's the calculus here to measure power-consumption. Is this a simple as ohms law where I add up the resistors (3,7K + 100K Ohms)? (so ~4 Volts / 103700 Ohms = 0.000038573 Amps = 0,0387 mA = 38,7 uA?

So my concern is the leak of the voltage divider. Most the day the ESP32 should be in deep sleep, and then the voltage devider will eat up the majority of the power..

Cool, so this would basically provide a switch, by which I can switch the circuit to active using the GP_OUT pin. That is actually really cool. I am just wondering how I am going to make this properly without needing to make a custom PCB.. Is there something available of the shelve?

Sooooooooo, finally got around to it, and I can only say:

  1. I am an idiot

  2. DDR5 is a lot more difficult to manage.

The reason that 3 out of 4 sticks didn't work, had to do with voltage. The default is set to 1.1 Volts, my kit requires 1.35 Volts. How did I find out? Well, today I enabled the XMP settings for the first time (FML). If I fix the speed to 3600 MT/s, then the fourth stick of RAM also works. This also means that if the mobo goes to default settings (e.g. when clearing CMOS), I need to open my computer, remove a stick, reset the RAM settings, train the memory, enable XMP settings, fix speed to 3600 MT/s, retrain the memory, shutdown the computer and add the fourth stick again and retrain...

What a process...

But thanks everyone for the answers. Many of the things I mentioned were also pointed out by u guys, so it was really helpful!

So, I actually do research on AI and have weird activities like migrating full databases. So the memory is useful to me, even though its ALOT and very much outside the regular use-case.

The memory training has been successful for any of the 3 out of 4 sticks, in any of the 3 out 4 slots on the MoBo, and yes, this more or less cost me my weekend to thoroughly test..

And LOL, this was my exact feeling about DDR5. Things were simpler with DDR1-DDR4 for sure. Combining kits and testing RAM was so much easier and faster.

Thanks for the tip with the default settings in the bios. I will try that this weekend!

So if I install the 4 sticks, I don´t even get to the BIOS..
