  • windows server edition which not possible to get if u are not business client and it cost 800$

    It probably depends on your uni, but students can get Windows Server licenses for free on Azure Education.

  • It does DNS already, so why do I need an external DNS server?

    You need an external DNS server to access it externally. If you're happy with internal access only, you can probably set some sort of DNS override in UniFi.

    Crows are intelligent birds and learn quickly – even from each other. In Sweden, they are used to collect cigarette butts and bring them to a machine that automatically rewards them with peanuts.

  • There are things I don't understand about the machine that also make me think AI, but Google Translate seems to understand so maybe it isn't?

    Edit: Actually I think AI is better than I thought it would be.

  • Mozilla’s Betrayal of Open Source: Google’s Gemini AI is Overwriting Volunteer Work on Support Mozilla

    Jump

  • This isn't about Firefox, and there are zero mentions of Firefox in the article. This is about Mozilla screwing over their volunteers by replacing their human written translations, with inaccurate machine translations written by a closed source LLM.

  • It doesn't really matter how you setup dynamic DNS and SSL. I prefer to handle dynamic DNS on the router, incase it's smart enough to refresh the IP after DHCP renews it. I do SSL on a seperate nginx instance, but I run a few other sites; it might be easier to configure it directly on home assistant, but I haven't tried.

    If you want some extra security, I'd look into mTLS, as that establishes some cert based authentication at the TLS layer before HTTP, but it can be complicated to configure.

  • Why won’t Steam Machine support HDMI 2.1? Digging in on the display standard drama.

    Jump

  • on these atomic distros where even something like syncthing involves shenanigans to keep active week to week? Ain't happening.

    I don't see why you couldn't kexec into a new kernel. kexec will load a kernel into memory from an already running kernel, and jump into it. It'll suck for the user as they'll have to semi-reboot everytime they want HDMI 2.1, but it's easy and doesn't install anything.

    There's also live patching, but I think that'll be a bit of work.

    Of course the kernel needs to be compiled with those options enabled, but most distros do.

    Edit: And they probably won't work with kernel lockdown/secure boot.

  • DP has an option to transmit HDMI signals instead, this is what passive adapters use and will still have the same HDMI 2.0 issue. A DP source can be passively adapted to HDMI, but a HDMI source cannot be passively adapted to DP.

    You can also get active HDMI adapters which actively convert the signal, and can work with HDMI 2.1. Intel actually has an active converter chip built into their ARC GPUs, and is how they get around this issue.

  • Options for remote Wake-on-lan. Or I guess wake on WAN.

    Jump

  • You're going to have a hard time trying to get that working over the WAN (if that's even possible).

    Wake on LAN is still encapsulated in an IP packet, so you can send it over the internet, and most WOL clients let you specify an IP. However your router will need to DNAT it to a broadcast address. Some routers have a check box for this (e.g. An ISP provided Technicolor router I have), some let you port forward to broadcast (e.g. Many routers, sometimes with workarounds), and some let you manually configure NAT (e.g. MikroTik routers).

    So it is possible, but forwarding public internet traffic to a broadcast address seems like a bad idea, and I wouldn't recommend it. Why I know this: I used to do this in middle school, and it does work quite well.

  • Depending on your BIOS and with fast boot, you might need to just hold one of the keys while booting instead of spamming it on boot.

  • How did my ISP identify my AP?

    Jump

  • Yep, but it's required, and also present in every frame sent between your router and the ISP BNG.

    I was trying to think of a reason why ASUS would still be showing.

  • Let’s talk about CGNAT and IPv6, again | APNIC Blog

    Jump

  • I'm also interested in IPv6 related things and Apalrd's adventures on YouTube has some cool videos on translation mechanisms and stuff. I thought you might be interested.

  • How did my ISP identify my AP?

    Jump

  • he was referring to historical data

    DHCP can also send a hostname, so it's possible your ASUS router previously sent its hostname, and then the Pi doesn't send one. What ever software they use might not clear the old hostname when there isn't one.

    Edit: For example, this is what my current ISP lets me see:

  • Are there any VPNs that support dedicated IPv6 addresses?

    Jump

  • If you just want an IPv6 prefix and don't need the encryption a VPN provides, you can use an IPv6 broker. Hurricane Electric's broker is a popular one.

  • don't do ai and code kids

    Jump

  • That's the OPs reply, not the AI.

  • Frontier Communications IPv6 support

    Jump

  • Well, your router is trying, but your ISP isn't replying, so I'd say you don't have IPv6 yet.

    I have had ISPs where if you send a bunch of DHCP solicits/discovers too quickly, then they stop replying. So maybe disable DHCPv6 for a few hours, and enable it while watching it on the packet sniffer, incase it sends a weird response.

    Also it shouldn't make any difference, but in IPv6/ND change all to bridge; your router looks like it's advertising itself as a default route to your ISP's router, and that just seems wrong.

  • I see is coming from a couple of Amcrest cameras

    Oh yeah, that still seems to be from your LAN. On the Mikrotik set your WAN interface in the filters tab of the packet sniffer. Also if you haven't already, your WAN shouldn't be bridged with your LAN, since your router will route between them, a bridge is like a network switch.

    Basically I'd like to see the Router Solicitation on your WAN from your Router, and hope that your ISP responds back with a Router Advertisement; or a Solicit for DHCPv6, and the whole exchange.

    Also 2001:470:1f06:redacted looks like a Hurricane Electric IP.

  • Frontier Communications IPv6 support

    Jump

  • Yeah thats normal, fe80:: is link local, ff02:: is broadcast. Is the source always your router's address, or is there another addresses there? DHCPv6 and ICMPv6 (for SLAAC), are the important protocols there.

  • Frontier Communications IPv6 support

    Jump

  • Your WAN shouldn't be part of your bridge. Are you getting any traffic in Wireshark? You do also need to enable packet sniffer on the router and point it to the IP of the computer you're running Wireshark on.

  • Frontier Communications IPv6 support

    Jump

  • Ahh okay, could you at least see your router trying to request an IPv6? You might have to disconnect and reconnect the WAN while the packet capture is going.
