  1. https://tailscale.com/kb/1131/synology I never performed the steps under "Enabling Synology outbound connections". I wonder how it could ever work in the first place...
  2. Seems like this thread was hijacked Anyways I found out there is a subreddit for tailscale: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tailscale/) I'll try my luck over there too. Best, -a-
  3. I have a 7900X running 4x48GB DDR5 5200 alright but it sounds like the 7950X is a different beast...
  4. There is no longer a ZeroTier package for DSM7 (cf link in previous post). There was one for DSM6, though.
  5. I had similar issues in the past. Every time it ended up being the SSD reaching EOL. At some point the SSD would just die and the PC wouldn't boot anymore. I was "lucky" it was always while the SSDs were under warranty, though.
  6. RGB ram modules do not require any additional cable or connector. The RGB is managed through the DIMM slot. If you're not familiar with RGB yet, you might end up in "RGB hell" with all the different vendors requiring to use their (buggy) RGB control app. Or you might feel like you are trapped with one vendor (looking at you Corsair) to keep things easily manageable. OpenRGB is a great free alternative to manage all your RGB from one app (and for free). They use plugins to extend the features of the core app and they have a great supportive community. It may be a bit of a learning curve at the beginning (I'd say 1st 24-48h) but after you get the basics it all makes sense. Best, -a-
  7. @ianm_ozzy It looks like using ZeroTier on DSM7 requires Docker CLI. Although I heard of Docker and I believe I have a vague idea of its concept, I am not at all familiar with it. I will thus keep this option as a "plan B". Thank you for suggestion, though.
  8. Hello everyone Foreword: I consider myself a fairly "advanced" user (I learned over the years) but I'm not deeply familiar with technicalities related to either networking nor backup/synchronization or whatever. I have no training in informatics. I'm mostly "self" taught thanks to the many of you on the internet who patiently and kindly shared their knowledge and expertise (and I am very thankful to each of you). For many around me, I'm the person people go to when they have an issue with their computer. Imposter Syndrome for sure... I started using Synology years ago since I was comfortable with DSM and its GUI. I'm not super comfortable with CLI although I use it occasionally (usually when I have no other option, pardon my weakness). I'm not super familiar with TailScale. I don't fully understand how it works. for instance, I don't know what "Tailnet", "route" or "exit node" mean but it seemed to me like this was not necessary for what I was trying to achieve. Question: I experience a weird issue when trying to use TailScale between Synology devices. First let me explain the details of the setup. I have 5 Synology NASes, 4 at home and 1 at work. Let's identify them with letters: A) is my main NAS at home. It hosts all my files B) is my secondary NAS at home. It hosts mostly media files that I could re-download in case of an unrecoverable loss C) is my backup NAS at home. It hosts backup of A) and some of the content of B) D) is a smaller spare NAS at home. I use it mostly for tests/experiments E) is my backup NAS at work. It hosts backups of A) and some of the content of B), or at least it's what it is supposed to. I setup all the backup tasks using Synology Hyper Backup. all my NASes run DSM7 (7.1 or 7.2) and the current version of TailScale. The NAS at work is behind a firewall (or other network security solutions) that I have zero control over. At some point I could no longer connect from the outside in an easy way (we no longer had "public IPs" AFAIU). Therefore I started to use TailScale to be able to backup A) and some of the content of B) onto E). I installed TailScale on A), B) and E) and they all appear as connected on my TailScale admin console. I also installed TailScale on my laptop so that I can connect to DSM on E) and manage it from home. I setup weekly backups (A) + B) -> E) ) and everything worked fine for 5 weeks. After that A) could no longer reach E) although B) still could. Weird... In order to troubleshoot this (is the issue coming from A)?) I decided to install TailScale on C) and D) and see if they could reach E). They couldn't. Both C) and D) do appear as connected on TailScale's admin console. B) has no problem performing backup on E) thanks to TailScale, and this has been going on for over a year now. I don't understand why A) (C) or D) ) cannot do the same though. My laptop at home has no problem connecting to E) over HTTPS thanks to TailScale. I don't know how I could figure out the origin of the problem. I'd be very thankful if you would share any advice with me. Considering my limitations I will probably have to Google parts of your replies in order to figure out what you mean. (I understand that some would rather recommend to completely move away from Synology and use CLI based tools or different OSes. I'm not sure I feel ready for that ATM. I'm not familiar with Docker containers either.) Thank you very much in advance for your help. Best, -a-
  9. Thanks @Alex Atkin UK and @ianm_ozzy. So I'll ask my question here (in a new thread) and also look into zerotier to figure out what it is and how it can help me. Best, -a-
  10. He mentioned he experienced the same problems with other combinations of RAM modules (including 2x16 according to the sys specs). However, it's true that running 4 sticks of DDR5 at full speed is often too demanding on the memory controller. @Exyio you may want to try to manually set a speed value for your RAM that would be somewhere between default JEDEC specs and XMP. Find the highest speed that doesn't mess up stability.
  11. This sounds like a bad MB to me. Did you contact Gigabyte?
  12. Hello I started using tailscale to backup one of my Synology NAS at home onto a remote Synology NAS at work. I needed to use tailscale because the network at work is securized in a way that wouldn't let me connect from the outside otherwise in order to perform backup tasks. Now I have a few questions about tailscale. I need advice to help me troubleshoot a few difficulties I am experiencing when trying to use it on other devices. I usually get better (more useful) advice from user forums rather than from support services, thus I was looking for a tailscale user forum but couldn't find any (it seems there is one but read-only for non-admins). Should I ask my questions here, hoping some of you could reply me or is there a better place for me to seek help? Thank you very much in advance for your advice. Best, -a-
  13. Thanks a lot for your help Now we can enjoy splitscreen 2players on RL :))) I ended up using BetterJoy rather than try XJoy. Your post about XJoy reminded me of BetterJoy that I was using years ago for a different purpose. XJoy devs mention that it has issues with analog controls but I didn't try it so cannot know to what extent it is a problem. BetterJoy is EOL (as well as the required VIGEmBus driver) and many report problems with Windows 11. However, so far it seems to work OK for me. I installed the latest VIGEmBus (v.1.22.0) rather than the one bundled with BetterJoy 7.1, though. Maybe that helps. EDIT: I spoke too fast. I experience too many disconnections of the controller when using betterjoy on Win11. I'll try Xjoy and see if it work better. It seems like the latest release of Xjoy is even older (2019) than Betterjoy (2021). And it's also based on VIGEmBus. I doubt it would work better than betterjoy, right?
  14. Also, it seem like my problem may lie (also) elsewhere... I cannot seem to figure out how to play RL in local 2 players (split screen) at all. Even if I want player 1 to use the xbox gamepad and player 2 to use MnK, it seems like both control player 1 and I cannot enable player 2. Excuse my ignorance.
