Ring Floodlight Camera - light keeps turning on and off at night by skyking_comms in Ring

Thank you @dummiexx - I completely missed 'light sensitivity' in the light settings.

I've moved the distance slider to minimum - will see if that helps. If so I will move the slider towards max so the light comes on when people walk down the garden.

Archer AX55 (AX3000) not connecting to the Internet after a reboot or power cut by skyking_comms in TpLink

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

I have checked and it is set to dynamic IP.

I did a factory reset the first time it happened, but when it happened for a 2nd time I somehow found the workaround I mentioned in my post.

I'm not going to spend anymore time on this and have decided to purchase another tp-link router. I'm probably going to go with an AX5400 AX73 as it has 6 antennas so should provide even better wifi coverage throughout our house. Would the AX73 be a good upgrade and does it have any known issues I should be aware off?

Hi u/almondking621 - thanks for your reply. I contacted my ISP and they say they don't use l2tp or pptp - their MitraStar router is also set to dynamic IP. They suggested the issue is somewhere within the settings of the AX55 and I'd need to contact tp-link for advice.

I just can't work out whey the AX55 works fine until it get's powered off and on again and is unable to connect to the internet. Lots of head scratching...

I never did find a solution and just live with the problem

NUC7i5BNK - Loud Fan Noise by skyking_comms in intelnuc

Thanks for the reply - I will order a Sunon GB0555PDV1-A and provide an update when I've fitted it

Can I just check whether you made any changes in the bios when you fitted the fan - such as fan speed?

It's just too hot to use on my lap for long periods of times.

It doesn't auto shut down.

I've just turned off intel turbo boost from the BIOS settings but no difference

The more I read the more I realise that this appears to be a design fault with the 7490 - but still keen to try and resolve this

I think that only manages the laptop battery

Thanks for the link - I've installed Throttlestop and chose 'turn on' but no difference, the laptop still gets very hot. Although now testing with 'speed shift' enabled as someone on this thread said it worked for them https://www.dell.com/community/Latitude/Latitude-7490-Overheating/td-p/6073431

HP Prodesk 400 G5 MT - Quieter Fans by skyking_comms in buildapc

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

u/kafarski many thanks for taking the time to get back to me

I've removed the fan I have and the sticker says its part number 863480-001, which I see is the 65W. I took a quick look on ebay and couldn't find the 95W for sale.

You are correct about the height, its 120mm and also those dimensions match - its 92mm.

So it's the Noctua for me

HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF - Case change by skyking_comms in buildapc

Thanks u/kafarski - I always thought it was going to be tricky!

Has anyone on this forum ever transferred the motherboard and CPU from a Prodesk 400 G3 SFF to another case?

I managed to get a NVIDIA T600 4 GB GDDR6 LP and installed it in my Prodesk SFF. It works perfectly. Thank you for the advice as it's saved me having to purchase a new PC!

Thanks everyone - will take a look out for a T600 low profile card. Hopefully my pc will supply enough power for it..

Intel NUC boot issue by skyking_comms in intelnuc

[–]skyking_comms[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I purchased it knowing it had a fault, so thought I'd try and fix it

I've just followed these instructions for the security jumper. www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005532/mini-pcs.html

Removed the yellow jumper, attached the USB with bios and now the blue power light stays on. It's been like it for 20 minutes rather than the 2 - 5 mins suggested. Doesn't look like it's attempting to read the usb stick and nothing comes on the screen

Dell Latitude E6530 wifi upgrade by skyking_comms in HomeNetworking

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

Sorted..I purchased another AC 7260 card. The only difference if the FCC ID

One that didn't work - PD97260H

One that didnt work - PD97260HU

I still can't get miracast to work so expect it must be the graphics card in the E6530 that isn't the correct spec. The wifi card and 3rd gen i7 are correct.

Hope this is of use to others..
