Re: Mesh wifi

Honestly, if you have the opportunity to do some DIY in it before 'proper' moving in, just do some cable runs. Not for individual computers etc, but for mesh units. You can then use them with any mesh setup - the backhaul will be over CAT5 so it'll be fast as fuck for the wifi endpoints, and they'll...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I'm in a discord that's driving game oriented, and nothing annoys them more than when they talk about how extreme manual shifting is and how it takes raw driving talent and you point out that yer grans Micra was a manual.

Re: Mesh wifi

I've got a Minisform EM680 which is an 80x80x40mm PC, and it's got slightly shonky wifi because, you know, antenna seperation etc. It was previously barely getting 250-300mb wifi and would regularly drop off the 5ghz channels on AC, and fall back to 2.4ghz, which was terrible. Since setting this up...

Re: Randomness

None of the reviews/previews/etc I saw suggested it was perfect, but the general feel I got was that it was a vast improvement over the zero feedback you get from any other EV in terms of inherently judging speed.

Re: Randomness

I hate that crap, but based on that vid and the way the camera moves as it pretend-shifts from pretend-first into pretend-second, it looks like Hoonday have gone one step further and added a pause in the power delivery???? In which case, my Tragicometer may well explode. :( Apparently it's actually...

Re: Decent car YouTubes

Yeah there, strong - and no offence intended Sales - "Daddys money" vibes here.

Apparently he has lots of fracking land rights money, which definitely weren't paid for by his father, probably in an attempt to get the grating, aggravating cunt out of the house.

Again, not you Sales :lol:

Apparently it's the soon to be utterly fucking uninsurable, and probable bankruptcy court personality Edmond "Mondi" Barseghian, who last year fucked up an EV Hummer after not even getting 20 miles in it, by driving on camera clearly distracted, and 'not seeing' a five foot dip in the dirt...

Re: Randomness

No, that's apparently just the standard of footage that's acceptable in private first responder ambulances.

Why spend that extra £20 on a better camera when that could go to shareholder value?

Re: Mesh wifi

Power supply is currently, happily, powering the 2830 backup router. So unless it's failing at a very specific load right at startup, then it ain't that. Besides, Draytek didn't offer to replace it first, so I guess this ain't the first 2866 they've see shit itself in this very specific, seemingly s...

I've always called that herringbone parking. Guess that's what comes from growing up/living by the coast. Although looking at it, that might be a similar but sliiiightly different concept.

By coincidence, my Draytek 2866ax shat it's biscuits last night, so I'm now running on my old (oooold) 2830n Which is....painful. And doesn't like VPNs much. And has shit wifi by modern standards. The 2866ax is still technically within 2yr warranty, but the RMA process might take a while, so I'm rep...

Re: Parking

Totally depends on where parking and in what situation. I tend to reverse in, but a lot of the time it's no more difficult or complicated to go in forward and reverse out where there's clear visibility all around.
