#

what i am looking for is something that lets me host files that can be downloaded or streamed from a browser. I am useing FTP for download and plex for streaming atm. I was wondering if there is something out there that combines the two so i can just use software.

delicate kettle
#

you can allow downloading in plex iirc

peak cloak
#

@fossil stirrup why not just use some sort of app like emby or jellyfin instead of just pure ftp(s)

fossil stirrup
#

you need a paid account to download with PLEX

tame carbon
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

primal ice
#

jellyfin

delicate kettle
#

if you want free, jellyfin is your option

tame carbon
#

sshfs crystal@server:/home/crystal /mnt/mounted

#

idk, sshfs is just boss.

#

FUSE ftw :)

primal ice
#

I use samba yeah.

tame carbon
#

@primal ice with sshfs you can just mount a remote directory to a local one

#

using ssh

fossil stirrup
#

i am looking a jellyfin now and looks very nice, but that only works on computers dont it? you cant accesses the files from say a android browser can you?

peak cloak
#

they have an app

fossil stirrup
#

o damn and ios, this is looking better

tame carbon
#

does Jellyfin even run on windows?

#

pretty sure its serverside linux only

peak cloak
#

yep, I think so too

primal ice
#

vm's

tame carbon
#

Oh no there is a windows version

#

and you can also get docker if you dont want the windows ver

peak cloak
#

yep nope

#

and portable .net

tame carbon
#

lol

#

so you can host it on a Pi with Windows IoT Core

#

cus .NET Portable runs on arm

primal ice
#

heh

tame carbon
#

@primal ice I'm just meming

#

windows in server world is heracy

#

@fossil stirrup do you have a machine to host jellyin on?

#

not sure what you are using for plex

#

Managed to get some powerful one-off bonusses from wonders to get a huge amount of card slots for my gvt

fossil stirrup
#

ya i have a dedicated i but just for hoting game servers on that i use

winter bramble
#

Nice

tame carbon
#

look at my capital

#

and my economy

fossil stirrup
#

it is windows 10

tame carbon
#

water tiles are incredibly overpowered

#

@fossil stirrup for a server?

#

meh

#

thats not a server

#

thats a networked windows machine in disguise

delicate kettle
#

until they all go away when someone rolls coal

fossil stirrup
#

ya, im not much of a linux person

tame carbon
#

@fossil stirrup its much easier and simple than you'd think

#

and you just need to keep a small cheatsheet for the common commands

#

eventually it is 2nd nature

primal ice
#

Fedora server ftw

tame carbon
#

and then when you get used to it

#

you start cursing windows for all its flaws

fossil stirrup
#

i host alot of different game servers and i was not sure if each game has linux server files

#

MC, Ark, Rust and a crap ton more

peak cloak
#

@tame carbon that's the problem, I wanted to host a stormworks server but it's windows only

tame carbon
#

On servers its just there for the lightweight and reliable operation

#

@peak cloak huh

primal ice
#

virtual machines

tame carbon
#

yeah so you just put windows in a vm

#

and give it little memory

#

block all ports except 80

#

and 443

peak cloak
#

yeah true, but aren't windows vm's heavy

tame carbon
#

yeah its insane how much performance they require

#

Like, I have like 3 programs running as a container, which is basically a system with its own tiny kernel

peak cloak
#

I only have 8gb of ram on my optiplex "server"

tame carbon
#

on a duo core machine

peak cloak
#

no

tame carbon
#

no I mean, that's what I have

peak cloak
#

oh

tame carbon
#

I think you and I run different kinds of software to begin with

#

so we can't really argue here generally

peak cloak
#

mine's just a lab

tame carbon
#

Most of the stuff I run is enterprise middleware

fossil stirrup
#

what if i was to do it thte other way around and run linux in the VM

tame carbon
#

like databases, caching systems, and webservers

#

but its just experimental

#

at home

#

lol

#

@peak cloak generally depends on what kind of software the windows stuff was built for

#

if its a server written in .NET

#

you can try mono and pray

peak cloak
#

@tame carbon I was able to play stormworks, the game on linux through proton

tame carbon
#

I have to upgrade soon

primal ice
#

throw more ram at it :p

tame carbon
#

it has 16GB

#

that image ^ looks like a dancing bear

fossil stirrup
lean pebble
#

I have to upgrade soon
@tame carbon proton is awesome I used it alot but my games moved to epic launcher

primal ice
lean pebble
#

This is mine

#

Most of it used by my gaming vm so it's not really in use

#

It's just got changed from 121Gbps haha

primal ice
#

yeah I need to redo it. probably go cinnamon with it, I thought 20gb would be enough for the root install (its out of space)

lean pebble
#

Oh gosh never do that

#

You don't have space for extend it ?

primal ice
#

nope eh its like 3 hours to redo it.

lean pebble
#

Why redo you whole disk it 20Gb?

#

It is an lvm partition?

primal ice
#

xfs

lean pebble
#

You can extend it without format if your disk is not full

#

Simple commands

primal ice
#

it is its just small 96GB drive

lean pebble
#

And all the other space where is it ?

#

/home?

primal ice
#

yeah

lean pebble
#

You need the stuff there ?

primal ice
#

yeah

lean pebble
#

Backup them and then we will see how to extend it

primal ice
#

I have 2 spare 500gb evo 860 drives.

lean pebble
#

Do fdisk -l

#

I have 2 spare SSds of 250GB for backup

#

One of them is cloned system

primal ice
#

just have to install one of em and redo it. all the config stuff is saved on one of my share drives so its no big deal.

lean pebble
#

I used clone zilla for it

#

What do you do there

#

?

#

Schemas for nasa rockets ?

primal ice
#

this just personal stuff.

lean pebble
#

😉

primal ice
#

22.2tb nas

winter bramble
#

Wow

primal ice
#

all the movies

lean pebble
#

You can clone your disk to the new one and just extend your disk

#

Your new one

#

22.2tb nas
@primal ice can I get some

primal ice
#

no it was expensive. all 4tb wd golds :p

lean pebble
#

I have 5 HDDs in my pc each of them is between 1tb to 3tb

#

And 4 ssds

#

SSD 1tb
2x 250gb for os
And m.2 2tb

#

Expensive to

primal ice
#

oh thats just the fedora server

lean pebble
#

Fedora workstation

#

My main pc

#

I wrote my pc parts in hardware chat

primal ice
#

thats the windows machine

lean pebble
#

You can dig into it and see what the fuck I have in my pc

#

32gb ram ?

#

Soon I'll add more ram to my system

#

I need 64gb

#

32gb each system

#

I have windows in kvm with gpu

#

Dedicated GPU

primal ice
#

m.2 evo 860 500gb system drive 2 m.2 1tb 960 evo's for games and 2 850 500gb sata scratch ssds

lean pebble
#

I want to get rid of all of my HDDs

primal ice
#

its nice to get rid of the spinning rust

lean pebble
#

But I have no job right now

#

I want to make a nas server at home

#

2 years I'm planing it

#

But I had to replace my pc first

#

Because my 9.5 years old intel died

tame carbon
#

@lean pebble either get a celeron SBC

#

or build your own mini ITX system

lean pebble
#

are you talking about nas server?

#

mini itx

#

?

thorny vector
#

@primal ice Spinning rust shall always remain

primal ice
#

yeah in my nas, not on my gaming machine though 😄

thorny vector
#

Just get a big ol' raid array, and get speeds equivalent to a SSD

waxen scroll
#

before NVMe I did just that... with SSDs

#

turns out enterprise raid cards dont like gaming motherboards very much

#

it'll work but the card bios gets weird

ocean pivot
#

I did a raid with nvme 😄

#

Hello! I have a question about IPv6. I'm trying to configure it in my unifi dream machine. It's asking for a prefix delegation size but I don't know what that is.

#

(please tag me if you have an answer to this, thanks!)

thorny vector
#

@red arrow prefix is similar to subnet in ipv4.

#

Generally isp’s hand out /64’s

red arrow
#

alright, I didn't have any luck with 56 which is what I saw online though

primal ice
#

are you actually getting a ipv6 from your isp? if not you would then need to create an ipv6in4 tunnel if you really wanted ipv6 https://tunnelbroker.net/

red arrow
#

I don't actually know

primal ice
#

it would be in your router setup.

red arrow
#

wdym

#

I don't care all that much about it

#

I'd just prefer it to work

primal ice
#

something like that.

red arrow
#

that screenshot above is what I got

primal ice
#

yeah probably aren't being provided an ipv6 address then from the isp even though their backbone can support it.

lean pebble
#

Hey

#

Nice router I don't have the loss indicator in my router

#

I'm pretty sure if I had it there I would see at least 45%

thorny vector
#

you can test that with an iperf3 test

lean pebble
thorny vector
#

ebay will have good deals. Also check out r/hardwareswaps and facebook marketplace

lean pebble
#

Haha I don't know my Facebook details

#

I removed the app from my phone at 31.12.19

thorny vector
#

I have a fb account soley for marketplace. Too many good used hardware deals to pass up.

lean pebble
#

Haha

#

I guess it was ram problem

#

When my pc died

thorny vector
#
lean pebble
#

But I'll need to buy PSU for it to

#

Does crucial good ?

#

I never had the chance to use them

thorny vector
#

Yeah, crucial is good

lean pebble
#

I'll check it

#

What psu you think I should get for it

#

450w?

thorny vector
#

that'd be fine

lean pebble
#

I'll get shitty gpu for it

thorny vector
#

Why even get a gpu?

lean pebble
#

For installation

#

😆

thorny vector
#

No onboard?

lean pebble
#

Nope

#

Actually I thought about getting raspberry pi for it

thorny vector
#

How much traffic would you be serving?

lean pebble
#

Put it in a mini itx case with a bunch of HDDs

#

I'm planing to remove my old HDDs from my main rig

thorny vector
#

RPI nas's are good for 1-2 clients, but more than that you get limited hard by usb throughput

lean pebble
#

It'll serve storage for my games to

thorny vector
#

Then hard nope on using an rpi

lean pebble
#

Well ok

thorny vector
#

You probably don't want to do game storage over networking

#

you're going to hate the load times

lean pebble
#

It's only for the barely used games

#

The big games on my SSD and m.2

thorny vector
#

Fair enough

lean pebble
#

I have m.2 2tb

#

And 1tb sata SSD

thorny vector
#

Do you have other clients that'll use the NAS? Might be more economical just to add storage to your desktop

lean pebble
#

Games like hitman 1/2/3 and watch dogs 1/2/legion and sniper elite series on my SSDs

#

Haha I have too much HDDs on my desktop

#

I just want to kick out my HDDs from there

#

I have 8TB total I think

#

Nas will be use to backup to

#

My phone backup as secondary backup to my storage unit in cloud ☁️

#

It'll be accessible for my Nvidia shield to

#

As network storage

thorny vector
#

Fair enough. I just added another 8 TB to one of my servers. There's never enough storage

lean pebble
#

Now it splited to 5 drives

#

I have those drives for 7 years

#

If not more

thorny vector
#

I think right now my total lab capacity is around 50 TB

lean pebble
#

I still have one of 2tb outside of my pc

#

Oh

#

Can I get 25?

thorny vector
#

Nope, lol

#

Got VM's to run, Data to store

lean pebble
#

Me to

#

I'm running on my main pc windows kvm machine

#

For gaming

#

He dedicated GPU and dedicated network card

thorny vector
#

I'm running a vCenter ESXi cluster.

lean pebble
#

At home ?

thorny vector
#

Yep

lean pebble
#

Why

#

Are you hacking the pentagon?

thorny vector
#

More like work for them

lean pebble
#

Are you a hosting company?

#

Let me guess you have 10gb fiber in house

thorny vector
#

No, Defensive Cyber Analyst by job description. But in practice I essentially do everything.

#

And, hah, if only.

lean pebble
#

Haha 😹

#

Not yet

#

But for sure no adsl connection

thorny vector
#

Definitely not

lean pebble
#

Well good for you

thorny vector
#

Why, you off ASDL?

lean pebble
#

I still have this shit ya

#

3 ISPs have fiber under my house and none willing to connect me

#

Living at private house and they connect only buildings

thorny vector
#

That's garbage

lean pebble
#

Ya

#

I know

#

I have in my neighborhood fiber for 9 or 10 years and it's just laying there disconnected from both sides

#

I see it everytime I park my car

subtle estuary
#

Is it possible to run/host a minecraft survival server for my friends on my crhomebook ?

unborn sluice
peak cloak
#

technically yes

#

install linux

subtle estuary
#

i already have linux installed but i cant find any guide that work

peak cloak
#

@subtle estuary the linux thing within chrome os?

subtle estuary
#

yeah the linux application that you install from the settings

peak cloak
#

yep, nope

unborn sluice
peak cloak
#

honestly, just get a small pc

unborn sluice
#

I mean even a PI could host for a few people

peak cloak
#

yeah, a pi could

unborn sluice
#

but the performance

peak cloak
#

chromebooks don't have ethernet do they?

unborn sluice
#

dunno

#

honestly, I haven't seen one in person

#

but for chromebooks,I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't have

#

since the main purpose is sleek

subtle estuary
#

i am getting this speed wired on my pc and i am getting around 150mbps up and down on wireless in my room so that should be enough to run a Minecraft server with 4.5 people online

peak cloak
#

it's not the speed, it's the reliability

unborn sluice
#

You could run a mc server in 100/100 but if your ping is 200 that's a yikes

#

(even 50/50)

subtle estuary
#

i have 1ms response time

unborn sluice
#

wired in your pc right

#

but how about the chromebook

subtle estuary
peak cloak
tame carbon
#

Anyone recommend any harddrives for NVR ?

#

need around 4TB

#

uppladdning

#

xD

unborn sluice
#

wd purple?

#

isn't that like built for cctvs

lean pebble
#

My fedora freezed gg but my windows machine keep working smoothly

#

So weird

blazing solar
#

Also does it matter which cable goes on MAIN and AUX?

lean pebble
#

I got it installed the dkms and I reinstalled my Nvidia driver and now it's showing under dkms status

lean pebble
#

Better than mine for sure

tame carbon
#

@lean pebble nice

#

@lean pebble did you install the kernel headers for it? :)

#

There's this set of tools and libs you need for dkms to work

lean pebble
#

All was installed except this

#

Haha

tame carbon
#

Everytime you get a new kernel now

#

dkms will run

#

and repackage the driver binary

lean pebble
#

But only 1 issue

#

I can't install the latest gpu driver for some reason

tame carbon
#

nvidia?

lean pebble
#

I need to use the one that 1 version down

#

Ya

tame carbon
#

latest I know is 455

lean pebble
#

Dkms don't love it

#

Oh successfully completed

#

Finally

tame carbon
#

You installing it from the right source?

lean pebble
#

Ya

#

From Nvidia website

tame carbon
#

bad

lean pebble
#

Just had to redownload it

tame carbon
#

Depending on what distro you are using

#

you should use a PPA on ubuntu

lean pebble
#

Fedora

tame carbon
#

don't they have a dnf repository?

lean pebble
#

I like Nvidia site better

#

There are some open repos for it

#

I tried them before not good enough

#

That's why I head back to Nvidia site

tame carbon
#

There's multiple

lean pebble
#

Ya no thanks

#

Tried it

#

Not stable enough

tame carbon
#

:3

#

https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora32/x86_64/cuda-fedora32.repo

#

You can get the nvidia drivers from there

lean pebble
#

Nvidia website already have a binary on their site

#

They have for fedora 31?

tame carbon
#

Yeah but downloading a binary by hand like that is bad practice

#

you should use a package manager

lean pebble
#

Actually it's the most stable way I had ever used

tame carbon
#

My laptop has nvidia prime

#

cant go to the 4xx drivers without it failing to boot

#

kernel too old

#

using ver 388 or something xD

lean pebble
#

xD

tame carbon
#

kernel is v 4.4.0

#

old too

lean pebble
#

I need to reconfigure kde but I'm too lazy

tame carbon
#

Main reason why you'd want to use a repository over a manual download

#

is if you want things like cuda

lean pebble
#

Always do startx manually

tame carbon
#

those come from nvidia repos directly

#

cuda packages are not compatible with manually installed drivers

lean pebble
#

Nvidia repo is pretty new

tame carbon
#

yeah

lean pebble
#

I'll try it

tame carbon
#

@lean pebble actually

lean pebble
#

All the other not stable

tame carbon
#

if you are not using cuda, its not worth

#

the only thing the cuda repos are missing are the i386 binaries for the 455 driver

#

so no 32 bit support for steam

lean pebble
#

I have 32bit support

#

So I'll keep my way

tame carbon
#

Be happy you got 455 and the i386 binaries

#

because you cant run steam without

#

and the cuda repos are x86_64 only

lean pebble
#

Actually I'm running steam on my windows kvm

#

So steam currently there

#

Untill all of my games will work on Linux

tame carbon
#

lutris ftw

lean pebble
#

Ya I know

#

But not all works good as I want

tame carbon
#

yeah its in its infancy

lean pebble
#

Btw Nvidia repo not good

tame carbon
#

and native support would be better anyways

#

but DirectX...

lean pebble
#

They have for fedora 10/18/19/20/21/23/25/27/29/32

#

No 31

tame carbon
#

is that a stable release?

lean pebble
#

What 31?

#

31 is stable

tame carbon
#

You should upgrade to 32

#

you get kernel 5.6

lean pebble
#

I would install 32 but I installed my system on the day they just released 32 so no

tame carbon
#

bunch of optimizations for the new chips

lean pebble
#

Now I'm using kvm I don't want to fuck it up

#

😅

tame carbon
#

That kernel 4.4 that i have only runs ok on my system cus its an i7 5500U

#

and I removed all the meltdown and spectre fixes from my kernel

#

16% performance penalty my ass

lean pebble
#

Fedora 31 still getting updates and upgrades

tame carbon
lean pebble
#

So I'll consider moving to 32 when I have the time to rework on kvm

#

Took me 6 days to make it work

tame carbon
lean pebble
#

Windows kvm with dedicated GPU

tame carbon
#

can windows even do pcie passthrough?

lean pebble
#

Ya

tame carbon
#

what, not with the regular version though right?

lean pebble
#

I was surprised

#

With the regular qemu

tame carbon
#

you need pro or enterprise

lean pebble
#

Nope

#

I'm using pro but I don't think you must

tame carbon
#

oh nvm

#

I was thinking you were windows as host

#

lol

lean pebble
#

Hell no

#

Are you crazy ?

tame carbon
#

just stoned

lean pebble
#

Waste my cpu on this system as host ?

tame carbon
#

yeah pcie passthrough was kinda first implemented on linux

#

as all hardware basically is

lean pebble
#

Yap

tame carbon
#

for new hardware

#

often the drivers are in the kernel before the products are even sold

lean pebble
#

Last time I tried to upgrade my system from fedora 29 to 30 it just fucked up

#

I followed the guide and my computer was completely fucked up

tame carbon
#

system upgrading is not a clean process

lean pebble
#

Ya

tame carbon
#

just reinstall

#

and copy the directories

lean pebble
#

Formating either

#

It's not directorys

tame carbon
#

keep your data on a seperate partition

lean pebble
#

It's kernel edits

#

😅

tame carbon
#

you can change configs

#

that config databases are elsewhere located

#

during setup

#

you can just mount /etc to another drive

lean pebble
#

All my data on separate drives

#

I got ssd that handle only fedora nothing else

tame carbon
#

and program configurations on your computer like appdata are in ~/.config

lean pebble
#

Ik

#

I just don't remember what I did for make the kvm work 🤣

#

With the gpu

#

I used 2 much guides

tame carbon
#

don't you assign IOMMU groups?

lean pebble
#

Ya but before that you need do something else

#

The iommu is the last part

tame carbon
#

libvirt is confusing

lean pebble
#

Easy part

tame carbon
#

lemme see how virt-manager does this :o

lean pebble
#

Ya that's why it took me 6 days

#

I can copy my vm configuration

tame carbon
#

yeah sometimes things bug up

#

usually by reading and trying to understand what its doing

lean pebble
#

I already have system backup on different drive

#

Plug and play

tame carbon
#

you can figure it out

#

I've never not been able to fix a system

lean pebble
#

What system

tame carbon
#

debian

#

any

lean pebble
#

I fixed too many systems

tame carbon
#

except desktop environment problems

#

those are cancer, I just reinstall and try again

lean pebble
#

Ah Microsoft fixes

tame carbon
#

switch tty remove packages

lean pebble
#

Format the system

tame carbon
#

reboot

lean pebble
#

🤣

#

Dpkg fixing is easy

tame carbon
#

yeah

lean pebble
#

Fixed too many times

tame carbon
#

Its such a simple system

lean pebble
#

Try to fix windows updates or mac

tame carbon
#

systemd is just super slow and annoying

lean pebble
#

Depends on what system

#

Fedora is fast

tame carbon
lean pebble
#

Rhel fast

#

On ububtu / Debian systems it's pretty new

tame carbon
#

@lean pebble when shutting down

#

when it has to wait for like 90 seconds

#

for a job

#

thats just the program, that doesn't give a callback

#

its stupid

#

its finished. but systemd just waits

lean pebble
#

On fedora it doesn't wait

#

Haha

#

Just rebooting

tame carbon
#

I use 8021q to have vlans so I just forward network interfaces from kvm

#

so ez, cus I have those vlans assigned with a specific ip address each on the dhcp server

lean pebble
#

Nice

#

I have 2 network cards in my pc

#

So my kvm machine use the second one

red thunder
#

Could my samsung 860 SSD (for steam games) be the choke point on download speeds?

errant kernel
#

nah i dont think so maybe your internet provider or your router ......but i see 266mbps so idk how much mbps you download in steam (if you go to downloads in steam you can see your download speeds if you know what i mean)

red thunder
#

I pay for " 1gb " speeds so naturally i don't get that but speed test run at around 700mbps, using wifi 6 so i don't think that. This is the only indicator i can find on something on my PC maxing out before reaching my "max down speed"

blazing solar
#

1 gigabit or gigabyte?

peak cloak
#

network speeds are in bits

#

disk speed is bytes

#

network speed can't be maxing out your ssd

red thunder
#

the write speeds of the ssd can't be slowing it down?

errant kernel
#

idk can you also check if your ssd is in good condition @red thunder

peak cloak
#

unless compression

#

run crystal disk info to test your ssd

blazing solar
#

Steam does compress

errant kernel
#

yeah but it isnt that heavy

red thunder
#

i was under the compression was done by the CPU

#

no i'm confusing myself

#

now*

errant kernel
#

unless you donwload and instal idk 5 or more games all together

peak cloak
#

nevermind, I'm confusing you

errant kernel
#

install*jesus

#

now iam getting confused as f

red thunder
#

You're not confusing me, i was just under the impression that the CPU was what deal with the compression load

peak cloak
#

it does

#

just that the cpu needs to write that data

red thunder
#

gotcha

blazing solar
#

they mean the uncompressed data would be bigger

peak cloak
#

peak cloak
#

that's what I thought as well, but SSD's are pretty fast to be maxing them out like that

#

that's active time though

#

so if you are downloading a game that's kind of expected

red thunder
#

Doing a cryystal mark now, then i'm going to try saving a game to my m.2 see if it is higher.

#

Write speeds are a little lower then advertised 480mb/s

#

this is all more a curiosity then a actual issue

peak cloak
#

bytes I assume

#

that MB not mb, just to not confuse people

red thunder
#

yes MB

#

yeah its the SSD

#

good to know

lean pebble
#

Save on your hdd

#

Let's see how he works

red thunder
#

hah

lean pebble
#

Nice download speed

red thunder
#

So now i know that my stuff will download 3 or 4 times faster going to m.2 960

peak cloak
#

ssd is not bottlenecking tho

#

that's your network speed

#

and cpu

lean pebble
#

82% cpu

#

Pretty high

red thunder
#

i understand what you're saying my CPU was able to go higher, as well as my wifi speeds

bruh you have 100mbps dowload speed wtf here the max you can get is 30mbps and if you can....even if your router is 100mbps bc there is no more than that in Greece

by only changin the drive i used

peak cloak

oh, you were using your hard drive

from 860 SSD to 970 m.2

peak cloak

860 is still fast

thick minnow
#

I had an older SATA hdd that I was using in a nextcloud server. Needless to say, I've learned my lesson. It died and I lost all of my photo backups.

peak cloak
#

oof, always use a redundant file system like ZFS in addition to offsite backup

lean pebble
#

I was able to squeeze my network to 5MB/s out of 40Mbps bundle

peak cloak
#

ZFS which uses multiple drives so if one fails your data is still there

thick minnow
#

That was my offsite backup, luckily. The only thing that's gone is mostly calendar stuff.

i use to have the slow connection problem but now i live on the board of major city in the US and we are kinda extra when it comes to our internet...

If my fedora ssd will fail I still have external plug and play backup

Not too hard with linux. I appreciate how portable it is

Sometimes you can't clone your disk because of it

@primal ice how to configure my router to use lan port instead of wan port?

peak cloak
#

@worthy stirrup in what context?

#

Is it me or I just find it more convenient to @ then reply

primal ice
#

it is heh.

worthy stirrup
#

can't

#

its in different channel

primal ice
#

what was your router again?

unborn sluice
worthy stirrup
#

asus rt-ax56u

unborn sluice
#

I remember back in the days, when we have quote in context menu instead of reply.

worthy stirrup
#

you can still quote tho

peak cloak
#

I remember back in the days, when we have quote in context menu instead of reply. I never did

#

Or maybe I just never noticed it

unborn sluice
#

I never did
Or maybe I just never noticed it
Yea, I think I'm a little old

#

maybe different generations

peak cloak
#

also, vyos finally fixed the bug which made it almost unusable for me

#

dhcp host-file update didn't work

primal ice
#

@worthy stirrup yeah it looks like with the stock asus OS on there it won't let you mess with vlan configs.

worthy stirrup
#

bruh

#

do i have to go into command line or smth

#

or do i need to change router os completely

primal ice
#

change router OS completely to like dd-wrt or open-wrt. the asus OS is locked down - hard coding stuff.

worthy stirrup
#

bruh

primal ice
#

just don't use the wan port.

worthy stirrup
#

wiat

#

so to use lan port, i need to change my router os

#

?

peak cloak
#

it could just be hardware

#

depends on how it is built

#

but yeah maybe the asus os is messing with it

primal ice
#

to change the wan port over to a lan port you would need to change the os. you can use the lan ports as lan ports.

worthy stirrup
#

well

primal ice
#

that is why I said it is complicated.

worthy stirrup
primal ice
#

you wanted to use the asus rt-ax56u as a secondary switch/AP correct? don't use the wan port just plug your ethernet into Lan1-4 port pick one. that leaves you three other ethernet devices you can hook up to it. in the Asus OS turn DHCP off so your ISP router/AP handles all DHCP. in the Asus OS you can give the device a Static IP if you want to remote to it on your network. but make sure that Static IP is out of the DHCP Pool range.

dusty osprey
#

Some routers have "AP Mode" doe. That can be also used right

primal ice
#

I use xxx.xxx.xxx.127 to xxx.xxx.xxx.254 as my dhcp pool then put all the static devices xxx.xxx.xxx.10-126 and have my gateways at xxx.xxx.xxx.1-9

tribal ferry
#

I'm just going to butt in and ask my question, but if Myth comes back then just continue.

#

So, with my new WiFi and home networking setup I need to find a way to run an ethernet cable from my router (red) to the hallway access point location (lime)

unborn sluice
#

then find a way

tribal ferry
#

well yes, that's what i'm asking if anyone has any ideas

#

The issue is that my house has a finished attic. I can't just throw a cable up there and drill a hole in the ceiling

#

I do have two crawlspaces in the attic the correspond with the pink lines, so I'd just have to find a way to pull a cable from that side to the middle of the hallway

#

Just not really sure if this is the best method, or if there is anything even behind the wood that surrounds the crawlspace

primal ice
#

whats under the stairs can you access below the stairs? I would probably just run an ethernet cable along the wall maybe under the carpet to the stairs punch a hole there (maybe put an outlet there) run the wire under the stairs then punch through with an outlet into the hallway.

tribal ferry
#

For clarification, this is my second floor.

#

@primal ice Do you mean run the cable behind the wall or on the outside of it?

#

in the hallway going to the ap

primal ice
#

just depends on how destructive creative you want to be.

tribal ferry
#

yeah I'm trying to keep this very tidy

primal ice
#

was thinking in the wall in the hallway.

tribal ferry
#

it needs to go into the ceiling one way or another

#

i don't want to run a cable up the wall in the hallway

#

but in the office it's fine

#

would be a lot closer to the wanted point

primal ice
#

yeah just don't know how open that subfloor/ceiling area is.

tribal ferry
#

i don't either

#

i'll go up in the crawlspace tomorrow and see what i can see

#

if it's an air duct or something blocking the inner parts of the floorboards then i'll have to do it this way

#

i've never run a cable like this before, but then again i don't want to pay someone $200 to do this

#

my budget already has really low margins with all of the equipment

primal ice
#

well if the crawls space in the attic is somewhat open they you could probably fish a line from the hallway ceiling to the crawl space then down along the crawl space then drop it back down to the router.

tribal ferry
#

how would I even get it over there completely blind?

primal ice
#

snake line you would have to start it from the hallway green point push it along the subfloor/ceiling space towards the crawl space then pull it along the crawl space

tribal ferry
#

alright, one more thing

#

i plan to drop a ethernet cable from the 2nd floor to the bottom

#

I assume I should expect some sort of 2x4 separating the floors in the wall?

#

or should it just be a straight drop?

primal ice
#

you might get lucky and it could just be a straight drop

tribal ferry
#

does the likelihood of that depend on the age of the house?

#

mine was built in 1980

primal ice
#

no its more just how they felt when building it. do we want fire breaks in every section or what.

tribal ferry
#

ah ok

#

just a normal drill should be able to get through it?

primal ice
#

yeah

tribal ferry
#

alright

#

i'll investigate tomorrow

#

thank you

use a stud finder to find the stud then run it up and down between the studs and see if it detects anything.

Quick question, I have an edgerouter-x acting as a router from my cable modem to my PC, I also have a wifi router connected to the edgerouter-x. I have server on my PC that lets me control my mouse and keyboard via my phone over wifi, but with my current config my phone can't see my PCs server. Is there a way to configure the wifi router in a way that it can see the server through the edgerouter on my PC?

If you don't have a stud finder, if you have molding around the base of your walls just look for where they are nailed in, can find wall studs and floor studs usually in the same spots

Ok I've asked this question before but i forgot what the answer was, and I've only gotten around to trying now.
I want to use virtual desktop with a seperate modem. I've it set up perfectly except it doesn't have internet access. The house modem has internet but is a 4g device and is pretty unusable for virtual desktop. I want either
A) all internet traffic be sent from my pc to the house modem, and only virtual desktop data to be sent to the second modem
Or
B) hook the house modem up to second modem
Ideally A) since the more traffic on the second modem the worse the virtual desktop experience, but i have no idea how to do either. I was told B) can be done but the modems are in very different spots in the house. Any help appreciated, thank you so much!
I also have an AX200 WiFi chip for using with house modem and an ethernet plugged right into the virtual desktop modem. Thanks ☺️

@peak cloak L2 only switches only deal with L2, v6 is not involved. What issue were you having?

peak cloak
#

@hollow marlin the netgear switch I had just wouldn't work (GS308E). I was able to get ipv6 over wifi where the AP is connected to my main switch (D-Link), but not with my pc over the switch. Maybe I was doing something wrong, idk.

hollow marlin
#

Have you done a packet capture to see if the packets are actually making it through the switch?

peak cloak
#

no not yet, that switch has always been a pain with it's web interface randomly not using it's static DHCP lease

Just run a PCAP on a PC on an interface in the same VLAN as the PC you are trying to get a v6

@tribal kraken like I said, if you are renovating, anything is possible

@tribal kraken not sure if you have an electrical room

#

you'd have one of these

and each port goes to a socket in the house

#

don't forget to number them :)
