  1. this is my POE switch https://www.intelbras.com/pt-br/switch-9-portas-fast-ethernet-com-8-portas-poe-sf-900-poe#beneficios the site says it supports IEE 802.3at and 802.3af I am sorry, but you kinda lost me with these terms hehe could you tell me more about these poe device classes? Btw, I think I had a brilliant idea. possibly. extract the power from the POE cable to power the POE switch I got. from the manufacturers website it seems port 1 of the switch can deliver 60watts and the rest 30 watts each. I am not using all ports right now, and im pretty Sure cameras barely hit 10watts peak each. so I think I can get away with powering two devices off port 1
  2. I need help tackling an issue I got at home, I have this POE IP camera on my porch wired to a POE switch in my office, then now I bought a POE Doorbell from Hikvision. My goal is to power and network both devices at once, there is only one cat6 cable wired there, and passing a second one would be very hard and costly. I then purchased a Small POE switch from Hikvision, that for some reason I thought supported being powered via POE and then sort of "repeated" the power downstream. But I was very wrong, its just a regular 10/100 POE switch with a 48V big PSU. Now for plan B, Im considering splitting the one ethernet cat6 cable into two fast ethernet cables. but idk if that approach will work with POE, my office POE switch is just 10/100 so there is no need for gigabit ethernet. My question then is, if I do this split ethernet cable on both sides, and then plug it accordingly will power and network function? Is there another more proper solution to this problem like a switch that does what I initially intended? thanks for your time reading this.
  3. Wrong, this info about the module compatibility has been around since late march. they just did not research well enough. They totally should dump more money and test it further, I too want to see closure on this, get the info on how exactly this works. It shows that Luke also didn't research anything, since the 2019 Mac Pro that has the same SSD setup also requires a DFU restore even when upgrading using the Apple Sold MacPro SSD Upgrade KIT. I know it is annoying needing to have a 2nd mac to DFU restore it, but again I would rather have the option instead of not being able to do it at all. And again, the macStudio is not advertise as being Consumer Upgradable, so they have that excuse to making the process so complicated. But then again the MacPro is and it requires DFU restore too so I digress.
  4. You do not replace one NAND chip off of an SSD with a Phison controller with one of a higher capacity, then complain that the SSD does not work. Also how is it anti-repair if you can still replace it and have it work? perhaps you are out of the loop. I should also add that the 2019 Intel Mac Pro's SSD system works in the Exact same way. you cannot mismatch then and modules, apple sells SSD upgrades for that machine, and you have to use the kit they provide otherwise it won't work. And yes you still need to DFU restore it.
  5. This is totally besides the point of the discussion. I misread your first reply, I thought you said "they did try upgrading to a 1TB SSD", so I thought that they did try to update to a supported 1024+0GB configuration, thats why I edited the message, go back and read it again. And buddy, I would not call "we've seen some reports" of terrible copy paste journalists making news based off Luke Miani's first video (the guy that did not even know DFU recovery exists). "Research" Luke Miani's first videos on the Storage upgrade subject are incomplete, but excusable, back then the topic was much much newer, even today we don't have all the answers, but I would expect LTT to make a video at least with all we know thus far on the subject.
  6. Don't get Setting up a new phone and recover a device with a broken OS. You still need a computer to restore your iPhone if the OS gets corrupted, And you are not entitled to it getting this functionality by design, considering was never meant to be replaced by the consumer. I'm happy enough to be able to do it despite their claims instead of not being able to at all. As I said, It needs to be a supported configuration by the SSD Controller's firmware. Read the Twitter post I put there, that 512+512GB SSD configuration isn't shipped by apple, therefore its not supported, also it might not work if the vendors are not the same. Also there is reason to believe that the modules have to sit on the slot they were meant to. You failed to understand what I meant, I was referring to a single module, imagine a ram module, where it's chips are modular, and you mix up incompatible ones is. One other way to put it is, imagine you have a regular m.2 NVME SSD, but the NAND is modular, if you put in a NAND setup that is not compatible with the controller's firmware it won't work. ITs how the MacStudio SSD works.
  7. I'm writing this because for once I've seen this LTT video and it did not sit right with me. Seems like only surface level research was done on the topic, which resulted in poor execution of the process, many bits of misinformation, which overall resulted in a video with a wrong apple anti-repair biased conclusion. Before I get into to the actual NAND upgrade part, at 9:30, Alex said that the Recovery environment was removed, which is wrong, the recovery environment still exists, however, you cannot reach it if the machine doesn't "POST", and because of how the hardware is setup, the machine won't start if there is a hardware problem. you can still access it to reinstall/recover your os. If Alex were to say that "unfortunately apple didn't made a way for the machine to recover the firmware by itself" it would be otherwise ok. since that is the truth. Regarding the Upgrade process, in the video they acknowledge that the NAND modules are not full SSDs, which is correct. However the way they tackled the upgrade still was very "PC Centric", Research done by Hector on twitter implies that the NAND upgrade is possible as long as you use a supported configuration. The way they did the upgrade would be akin to upgrade a RAM Stick where half of the chips were from one vendor and half were from another. I have not seen a single YouTuber show a proper upgrade where they for example, get a 1TB m1 Ultra and upgrade it with 2TB using the same configuration as a second m1 Ultra with a 2TB NAND. I've seen the argument that, "the controller is programable so apple is blocking these SSDs from working", that is an absolute insane thing to say. because despite not being modular, what lives inside the macStudio (or all other modern macs) is an SSD, and an SSD is expected to be assembled the way it was engineered to work, it is not designed to accommodate random combinations of NAND setups, its the exact same way other manufacturers do it, like samsung for example, they would design a Firmware for their 970 nVMEs ssd for example. The board is designed in a way that many storage tiers can be accommodated, however the firmware only accepts the ones samsung designed them to work with. I expected a better video from LTT, that went into these details and gave up a proper conclusion. They could make the argument that apple could've made their SSD's controller to support more random NAND configuration, which is fine. But they concluded by saying that apple is Anti-consumer and anti repair, which, in many fronts, I agree with there are countless entries on their backlog to back this up. However on this instance when they actually made something that is at least repairable, considering NAND is degradable part of the computer, and possibly upgradable despite what they say on their site about it not being upgradable. And even making the tool for it available to the public. Its absolutely crazy for me.
  8. Thanks for the reply, I've tried bridging the interfaces however I got an error saying. "can't add wlan0 to bridge br0" I've done some googling, and followed the tutorial on this post https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=192355&p=1206657&hilit=sudo+brctl+addif+br0+eth0+wlan0#p1206326 But it did not work ? Now I can't access my PI haha, dang it I have to get a keyboard in order to fix this, I think maybe my bridge interface did not get an IP. I Believe the tutorial you sent works with bridging ethernet ports only.https://wiki.debian.org/BridgeNetworkConnections Im sing Retropie, it doesn't have the classic desktop environment, apart from emulation station it is command line only.
  9. I currently have a setup on my living room, with a raspberry pi 3 Model B running Retropie (Raspibian Stretch) It is connected to my network via Wi-Fi, and it access games on my NAS. However I recently acquired a PS2, and I soft-modded it in order to play games via USB or via a Samba Share, however PS2 only supports USB 1.1 which causes many games with FMV sequences, to stutter a lot. So people recommend accessing them via the 10/100 ethernet port that has much more bandwidth available. However it is not possible to run an Ethernet cable to my ps2, so I wanted to bridge my Raspberry's ethernet port via Wifi, to my local network, I have found many topics on the subject, however all of them that I manage to find, envolve setting up a DHCP on the raspberry putting my PS2 on a different network with a sub NAT in place, thus masking it not possible to access my NAS. I wanted a solution that bridges the network such as the ethernet port would forward the "network access" as a whole, using my router's build it DHCP server and keeping everything on the same IP class. If someone is up to the task to giving my a hint of how to achieve such goal or maybe helping me along the process, it would be very much appreciated.
  10. Congratulations for the site guys, I have just recently came back with my subscription, and have been loving the UI, the experience and the video quality. However Im here to report that you guys should probably look into some performance issues, Im using safari on a MacBook Pro retina 2015. And as soon as I start browsing the site, I feel the laptop warming up and the fans ramping up, I noticed the battery percentage going down faster than when I usually browse on youtube as I usually do. If more information is needed feel free to contact me.
  11. Pretty sure I know how to do it, I just never thought about it you know? thanks for the tip
  12. Thats actually a very good idea, I'll search for an old android phone to do it, I really wanted to screw around with my router tho hahaha
  13. The problem to reissue OG Stuff, is that it becomes 'Not OG' anymore
  14. Hello there so I have A TP-Link Archer C59 router, and it has a USB port that I have used to put a hard drive on. I want to make a 'Personal Cloud' per se. I have a DDNS on it and it works great outside my network by on the inside I need to use the internal network IP. My plan was to make a local DNS server on the router, since I don't want to focus a whole computer just for this task because of the energy coast involved on it. I tried SSH into it but it to build a DNS server myself, but it doesn't allot me, the further I got was trying to log in with my Web credentials but it says: PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 shell request failed on channel 0 I tried putting commands right after the ssh and I got: exec request failed on channel 0 If somebody has any idea how I can achieve my goal I would be glad to hear or try it
