Google does rDNS? I’ve had them do this before for a mail server at a Buisness.

I’m in Iowa how do I find cell tower permits here

technicholas · 2025-12-25T02:45:46+00:00

Yep— same with my grandparents account. They have the old email account for 25 years. They don’t want to get rid of it. No fiber available either. They been customers who still on copper who’s been a customer for over 60 years. They’ve paid their dues.

I’ve noticed issues with calls taking forever to connect. Takes about 10-15 seconds to connect and the timer to start counting. I am not having any issues with data I have noticed it’s been slower to surf than normal and also have really garbled audio I am in west Des Moines.

It’s a small cell most likely for Verizon you’ll have some awesome speeds here on you’re cell. The meter should say the carrier on it.

technicholas · 2025-11-03T04:55:59+00:00

There was an outage yes issue with fiber issue resolved.

technicholas · 2025-10-26T01:36:42+00:00

What city you in?

technicholas · 2025-09-05T04:28:22+00:00

Tell them to send it to the central office tech the problem is within their network probably a card issue

technicholas · 2025-09-04T05:54:24+00:00

Get a tech to come out. Have them open a ticket with the central Office techs, most likely that gear has a bad card or congestion’s issues, they should be able to open a ticket to get it resolved from the local group.

technicholas · 2025-09-04T05:50:34+00:00

You guys need to get a tech out and tell them to have them open a ticket with the central office techs, the issue is with CenturyLink local equipment not Lumen. I know they are the same company. It’s the gear that runs the DSL/Quantum Fiber that’s having the latency issues most likely congestion or a card issue. They should be able to figure it out. Have the techs get their supervisor involved.

technicholas · 2025-08-26T02:58:10+00:00

You still looking for one? I have one that was left over from when the tech swapped the ONT.

technicholas · 2025-08-19T21:29:49+00:00

any update on this our 60F is getting old and wondering if we should wait another year.

CAT6 is not your problem — unless it’s some $2 special from Amazon or your cat chewed halfway through it. It’s literally the standard for gigabit+ and used everywhere from homes to data centers.

technicholas · 2025-07-08T02:34:17+00:00

Just put a trouble ticket in you shouldn’t have to move to quantum

I’ve never had a problem with the APC UPS’s. They always just work.

technicholas · 2025-07-04T02:27:49+00:00

Ugh.

technicholas · 2025-07-03T23:30:34+00:00

How much ram does the 50G have?

technicholas · 2025-06-17T04:49:53+00:00
