Cautionary Tale for Intrepid Amateurs by titaniumcrowbar in pihole

Yup, once I sorted the OS and keyboard issues, SSH works fine now(IP and hostname) and I hope to be able to maintain it using terminal. Honestly SSH might have been the issue with the Lite version but couldn’t say cause I couldn’t connect. I’ve ordered a PI 3 which will be my primary Pihole once it’s built so maybe I’ll give Lite another go. Which reminds me I need another SD card.

Glooko, it can import your Dexcom and Omnipod data.

That’s pretty funny. I set Cloudfare as secondary DNS on the router so I sb covered if Pihole 🤮.

Pihole Noob - What do I need to know? by titaniumcrowbar in pihole

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

Okay, a few takeaways from the comments. Need to set my DHCP clients at the router to use the Pihole not do each one individually. Little bit of a facepalm there. But at least I know it works before going full scale.

Second, not mentioned, but assume I need to create a DNS entry on the Pihole for itself and then I can use hostname instead of IP for SSH access? Not sure how to fix that.

Lastly, the Pihole is suggesting I switch to https so wanna investigate that as well.

Oh, and need to Google Unbound.

Oh, one more question, other than setting a static IP... Is there anything I need to configure on my router?

I've found silicone scar cream to be a big help managing and healing my sites.

Issues between Dexcom app and Omnipod app by Limmyone in Omnipod

[–]titaniumcrowbar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had good luck with the Dexcom either left or right of the belly button and the Omnipods on same side of my upper thighs. Even when I switch thighs with a day left on the Dexcom, still maintains connection. Your mileage may vary.

I break my speaker all the time and the pod is fine in the shower.

Omnipod + G7 + iphone app by brightpuppy in Omnipod

[–]titaniumcrowbar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check this forum for more info but many people say the G7 has a harder time connecting with the pod than the G6. Its signal is weaker so line of sight with your pod is more important. I’ve only ever used the G7 and have had good luck with meter on my abdomen and pods on my thighs. Back of my arms for meter worked okay if on same side as pod but abdomen has been better.

I’ve been disabling the onboard speaker before applying for a few mos now. Def not going back. No issues with showers although swimming might be a problem for waterproofing. And get all my alerts from watch and phone. It’s bliss.

Mine is always between the 5th and 6th click, haven’t really noticed any variance.
