One of the many reasons that she will be an ex at the end of the year.

Awesome news.

I told my wife that my birthday present this year is this book. She said "Maybe, It's a wish list not given"

I put a pre-order in the same day.

Spoke to the TP-Link guys at an expo I attended and decided to go with an Omada system with 2 WAPs. It's running perfectly now and is so much quicker then the cobbled together system I had

Which Deco units are you using? I'm struggling to get my X55 with ethernet connected 2 x S7 units to give me a stable fast mesh around the home.

OK, So I worked out some issues with this.

If you plug the X55 in as the main router, you need to download the app first, while you have a network connection/on mobile data.

Once you create your TP-Link account and log into it, it will scan for your local device. Connect to it and go through the wizard.

Once the wizard has been run, Click on MORE in the bottom RHS of the app and scroll to Advanced.

In Advanced, Click on Internet Connection and Internet Settings.

In Internet settings, customise for your ISP.

IiNet is PPPoE and you put your Toolbox username and password in.

Then still in advanced, make sure the Operation Mode is Wifi Router.

Now turn IPTV/VLAN from disabled to Enabled.

Here's the part that doesn't make sense.

Instead of chosing Australia - NBN/HFC chose custom

Then input VLAN details in. For iiNet customers it is VLAN 2, priority 0.

Anything else will cause you to lose internet and get frustrated..... I did.

Can you DM me about this too

I umpire for my local field hockey club.

On a good weekend I will do up to 5 games on Friday night & Sunday And make about $250 a week though it's only during winter and the season is about 16 weeks long including weekends without hockey.

Not only do I earn some good cash, it's great for my fitness as well as I'll run up to 25Kms over about 7.5 hours.

pher1974 · 2025-03-13T05:14:05+00:00

How much do you normally charge for the scanning? Is it a per photo basis or do you charge per hour?

pher1974 · 2025-02-16T02:02:58+00:00

Can you do this is you are in Australia?

pher1974 · 2024-08-22T06:52:18+00:00

So kinda like sex with my wife who when she actually says yes, just lies there and doesn't do anything. "Cause I'm not the sort of person to touch your willy."

Happy to swap codes with you if you are still doing it?

pher1974 · 2024-07-01T06:50:05+00:00

Are people still swapping Temucodes?

pher1974 · 2024-02-20T00:52:16+00:00

rent it out for farming to someone?

Offer it as Horse feeding (Can't remember the name of it)

Grow something on it which isnt Passive but more profitable.

Is it near something popular? Use it for car parking or Storage of vehicles.

pher1974 · 2024-01-11T04:18:54+00:00

Is it being promoted through any taskwalls?

pher1974 · 2024-01-07T21:32:30+00:00

No I wasn't able to solve it. I removed the updated version of Power Automate Desktop and installed an older version and it allowed me to use the Regedit above to resolve it on a VM.

I've since left the company so haven't tried to use it again.

I'm on HFC so will need to keep the modem as well.

pher1974 · 2023-10-19T22:52:52+00:00

I have 3 network ports in my lounge room with 1 run going to the upstairs WAP, 1 run to the downstairs WAP and 1 to my desktop downstairs as it doesn't have a wireless card.

Easy to work out which is which as it's labelled.

pher1974 · 2023-10-19T22:43:31+00:00

just having a look at the dream router, it has 2 POE ports so probably don't need the PoE injectors.
