- Comment on LGA1155 motherboard - no USB ports work 2 days ago:
Just to make sure - you physically drained the CMOS to reset it, right? That can have different results vs resetting to defaults in the BIOS/UEFI interface.
- Comment on LGA1155 motherboard - no USB ports work 2 days ago:
Did this happen over time or suddenly all ports dead? Or maybe this is new to you and unknown.
I would try clearing the CMOS is you haven’t already. Unplug power, remove the CMOS battery and wait a minute or more (or short the + and - contacts for a few seconds).
If that doesn’t change things, maybe inspect the CPU. Any problems visible on its contacts or the socket?

You will need to add the hotel address to your eBay account. Otherwise asking a seller to send an item to a different address makes you sound like a scammer.
Most hotels accept guest packages.
- Comment on Locked out of GL-AXT1800 admin panel after WireGuard route change 2 weeks ago:
So you have a single mobile device connecting via wg, correct? Not a second network?
If so the only configuration you should need on the router are firewall rules to allow forwarding from wg to lan. I am guessing that’s what the second step in the GL-iNet help accomplishes. That’s what I would recommend trying.
If I was doing this on “normal” OpenWRT I would create a firewall zone wg, and allow traffic to/from it and lan.
On the client device you should be good to go without changes if AllowedIPs is set to 0.0.0.0/, ::/0 (sending all traffic through wg).
- Comment on Locked out of GL-AXT1800 admin panel after WireGuard route change 2 weeks ago:
That rule is supposed to be set on the “server” at the other end of the wg connection, using its own wg address as gateway. Not on the router for the lan you’re trying to access. That seems like a pretty easy mistake to make given that documentation.
You could try a short reset of just the network configuration. Hold reset for like 5 seconds. Might need to do a full reset (10+ seconds) if that doesn’t get you back in.

I use Dumbass in a similar vein. But maybe something like Bro would be more neutral.

Cool, thanks. I’ll take a look.
- Comment on PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners 2 months ago:
I have heard that. Can it be given run conditions, like only on wifi, and respecting the Android battery saving setting?
My phone has an always on split tunnel VPN to home, so the other sync devices are always accessible. Without the Syncthing-Fork run conditions it chews through mobile data and battery.
- Comment on PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners 2 months ago:
Same here. It was already a little bit concerning that I was relying on a smaller fork to get syncthing on Android. It was on my to do list to figure out options. Now it’s at the top of the list, and I’m not doing updates for the time being on Android. That’s almost the entirety of my reliance on syncthing - phone to PC sync. I don’t really need it that much for sync between PCs.
- Comment on I need help troubleshooting slow wireguard tunnel (VPS to home network) 3 months ago:
Just throwing out more ideas:
Is there a CPU spike on the VPS?
Anything weird about Wireguard on either end? Using kernel mode WG everywhere and not a user mode version, right?
As a test I would be inclined to try a very small mtu to see if it makes a difference. 1280 is a failsafe that I use when on unknown networks and trying to wg out.
Maybe try with a smaller packet size, like 1KB which I think is
-l 1K - Comment on I need help troubleshooting slow wireguard tunnel (VPS to home network) 3 months ago:
Are you specifying bandwidth (-b) on the iperf UDP test? It defaults to 1M if I recall correctly, which would explain the result.
If not, try
-b 10Mor-b 0for unlimited (the behavior used for TCP). - Comment on Those who are hosting on bare metal: What is stopping you from using Containers or VM's? What are you self hosting? 3 months ago:
I’m doing this on a couple of machines. Only running NFS, Plex (looking at a Jellyfin migration soon), Home Assistant, LibreNMS and some really small other stuff. Not using VMs or LXC due to low-end hardware (pi and older tiny pc). Not using containers due to lack of experience with it and a little discomfort with the central daemon model of Docker, running containers built by people I don’t know.
The migration path I’m working on for myself is changing to Podman quadlets for rootless, more isolation between containers, and the benefits of management and updates via Systemd. So far my testing for that migration has been slow due to other projects. I’ll probably get it rolling on Debian 13 soon.
- Comment on Where Roman coins have been found 4 months ago:
The coinage had intrinsic value, being made of metals with a commodity value. So it’s not like holding a paper banknote when a government collapses. People would still have used them to hoard savings, for trade and melted down as a source of precious metals.
- Comment on Homelab networking recommendations? 4 months ago:
I’m using Mikrotik and Ruckus. Would recommend both. I like that they are both at the level of reliability that I don’t think about them at all for months at a time. I update quarterly or less and they require no other attention from me. They also work well with my centralized data collection and alerting via LibreNMS.
OPNSense would be high on my list of alternatives when I reevaluate next time. And all Mikrotik would be a good option for me as well. Their Wi-Fi gear is not as strong as Ruckus or Ubiquiti, but they are super solid.
The Unifi ecosystem is a bit too centralized for me. I don’t want to create an account in order to use the hardware.
