Fair enough. Is there anything one can do to mitigate? Like I know for the recent issue in the news, a mitigation strategy for consumers is to basically reboot their router often. I keep my router and all hardware up to date, and try to follow news here. Not sure if there is really anything else I could do.
Oh wow, hard to believe a huge bug like that would make it to production. What do you recommend instead? Stick with TP-Link?
From what I’ve seen it seems consumer routers, but it raises flags is all, and makes me reconsider options.
So I just added a TP-Link switch (TL-SG3428X) and access point (EAP670) to my network, using OPNSense for routing. I’m still within the return window for both items. I understand the article mentions routers, but should I consider returning these, and upping my budget to go for ubiquity? The AP would only be like $30 more for an equivalent, so that’s negligible, but a switch that meets my needs is about 1.6x more. And still only has 2 SFP+ ports, while I need 3 at minimum.
Sure could. Unfortunately, those trains don’t run between my home and work, or grocery store, or doctor and hospital, or movie, or the mountains for skiing/camping, or any other amenities where I live. I wish I had great public transit options like in Europe, but I don’t.
Now that’s a great looking car. Could never afford it, but it’s great nonetheless.
I’ll give that a shot, thanks!
Thanks for the detailed reply.
So the command gives me an error that nfs-client cannot be found.
The fstab just has basic default config. No timeout set.
I considered network issues, though it seems to be quite stable for other services. Not ruling it out just yet. I have a new switch coming in the next week, so will test if the issue persists when I put that in.
I will also give autofs a shot.
Thanks!
Haha don’t cut it up just yet! I’ll try some of the other options suggested here, as I’d like to learn what the issue is. The worst case I’ll try smb.
Thank you, will try this when I have time later this week.
They are mounted via the gui, but it just puts the mount into fstab. I checked the config there and it is just the standard default options for an nfs mount.
Edit: and no, I don’t lose it on reboot. Reboot re-mounts the share correctly.
Through the Cockpit gui, which just puts it into fstab. I checked the fstab config and it just has the basic default settings.
Doesn’t seem like it as far as I can tell.
Not sure about chromecast, but for AirPlay you don’t need internet connection. It’s probably the same for both, but I use an AppleTV and used a Xiaomi Mibox 3 before that, and would just cast to those if I need.
Well that’s just it, mostly unnecessary if you’re using it as essentially a monitor (like both of us are doing). Most of the updates would have to do with their smartcast OS or additional features or apps. The updates could also have additional support for devices as new hardware comes out, bug fixes (or additional bugs), speed improvements, etc.
They could definitely implement hardware that automatically connects to wifi without your permission. I guess a solution to that would be to connect to your own internet at home, maybe on a separate subnet that is blocked from accessing the internet.
I have a Vizio as well. It’s been disconnected from the internet for at least 2 years now and functions fine. I guess I miss out on updates, and if I press the Vizio “home” button it freezes up as it’s trying to connect for 20-30 secs before I can do anything, but works fine with an external Android or Apple box. You obviously won’t be able to use any of their apps if you disconnect from the internet, but it’s 100% worth it.
Adium… now that’s a name I have not heard for a while. Used to have a super nice customized version to chat with friends on various platforms. It was amazing. Thanks for the nostalgia trip!
You don’t have to rebuild the proxmox hosts to remove the cluster. I made the same mistake last year sometime and was able to remove the cluster and each of the proxmox machines works as it should standalone. I don’t recall the exact steps but it was very easy. A quick search for “proxmox remove cluster” gave me this result and from what I recall these are the steps I followed as well. https://rostislavjadavan.com/posts/promox-delete-cluster
This looks cool, and there is an itinerary plugin as well. And a community workaround to self host syncing. I’ll check it out, thanks!!
I actually tried this as my second step in trouble shooting, the first being using different ports.
In the non-omada management software, it defaults to 10G, and if the devices is on before the switch it negotiates 10G correctly and works at full speed (tested with iperf3). As soon as any of the 10G connected devices is rebooted, I’m back to 1G. To fix it, I then have to set the port to 1G with flow control on, apply changes, save config, refresh page, change to 10G with flow control off, apply, save config and it goes back to 10G again. Alternatively I can reboot their switch and it’s fine again.
In Omada its the same, fewer steps to get there but I have to sometimes do it 2-3 times before it works.
Same issue with both 10G TP-Link switches, so I’m thinking it might be the SFP. Using Intel SFP+ with FS optical cables. I’m using a DAC for the uplink from the 10G switch to my unmanaged 2.5G switch, and that doesn’t have the problem of dropping, always works max speed.
