I have a Canon RP and recently decided to get into Raw file processing after being somewhat resistant to this. I find Canon DPP gives nice results, especially with regards to the proprietary lens corrections and picture styles. However I know that other software can give superior results in...
The latest in my networking saga - the mystery of why my switches decide to run 100Mpbs or 1000Mpbs.
I have a DrayTek 2862n and 2 Netgear GS308P unmanaged switches with Gigabit ports. The other day I noticed that one of the DrayTek ports was running at 1Gbps but the other only at 100Mpbs...
Same - two ordered to make a stereo pair for use with the Apple TV. Better than the TV speakers or a cheap soundbar and I’m not that big a telly watcher to splash out on fancy soundbar or home cinema setup!
Btw I figured out my problem above - it was my WiFi network that was playing silly...
All fixed (for now!) and you were right, there was a setting for isolation hidden away.
For anyone else struggling with this, I would advise not using the Central AP Management on a DrayTek router as it is confusing and misses out settings. When setting up the SSID on the AP’s own management...
I am attempting to add a Draytek AP912C to my Draytek 2862n router to improve WiFi access around the building. I have put the same WiFi details from the router into the access point but found that, whilst I can connect to the Internet via the access point I lose all LAN connections.
For...
I’m having issues with Homepod Minis at my work location being unreliable with their Airplay and Home app connections - I am regularly having to remove them from the Home app and add them again, as well as struggling to get them to connect and play music some days (like today!). One does have...
I have recently transferred all my TV show series from my NAS to my Mac Mini and imported them into the Apple TV library so that I can watch them on my Apple TV box via the Computers app. This only works on the LAN.
Once imported the individual episode titles do not have any series or episode...
I appear to have discovered how to get the photos from my NAS into iCloud Photos. All I have to do is select the photos in the Synology Moments app, go to the ... in the top right corner and press Download. This downloads the selected photos to Photos with the correct data, including location...
Is there a way, with iOS as I only have an iPad and iPhone, that I can upload the photos from my NAS to Photos and retain any metadata so that they don’t all say they were taken the day they were uploaded?
I have tried to copy them to Photos via the Share menu but then they lose any metadata...
I’ve looked into the TP Link router and it appears to only work as a VPN server, which is no use to connect via a VPN to the Fritz!Box, as this would be the server and I would require the TP Link router to be the client. The reason for this was the Synology video app on tvOS is malfunctioning...
This may be a long one...:p
I currently have 3 networks:
1) Home network - Fritz!box 7530 router with a Synology DS218 NAS
2) Work network - Draytek 2862n
3) Parents’ network - TP Link Archer C7 with a Synology DS118j
I am currently backing up a PC at work to the NAS at home via Synology Drive...
Complete photo noob here, looking to use a compact for macro (dental) photography.
The usual setup is a DSLR with 100mm lens and ring flash (although there is contention as to whether point flashes are better for some shots), with set focal points etc. This is because it’s the same shots of...
So I have a number of locked notes in the iOS Notes app that had tables full of information (easier layout that simple text). However, I have gone into these notes and found the tables now consist of one empty cell. Which isn’t great, considering it appears to have wiped all the data! These...
I thought I’d run a quick test with this, setting up a Synology DDNS subdomain (xx.MyDS.me) to connect to my NAS. Running off my phone’s 4G data, it connected no problem. Via WiFi, nothing. However, when I added the subdomain to the DNS rebind protection exception list, the subdomain name when...
So I have a Synology NAS that I remotely connect to via the Quickconnect relay service, however I am unsure as to the security involved, feel it is slower to connect than a direct connection and if I want to run any of the backup options I require a domain name rather than a Quickconnect ID. I...
You can always use the DS Audio app. Place your music files/folders into the shared folder ‘music’ on the NAS and the DS Audio app works like the Music app (maybe not quite as polished but can download for offline usage etc.). Also allows me to pause playing and suchlike from my Watch.
I use...
Okay, so I went round yesterday after my dad had moved the AP further from the main router to try and improve WiFi coverage. I was hoping that after a restart from doing this I could then dig into the settings and sort this out. Except it seems to now work as expected?! I harbour a sneaky...
Sorry, I didn’t mention this setup is at my parents’ house, who are also in isolation so I can’t go inside and sort it out - I was sat outside the front door yesterday on the WiFi with my iPad! I’m popping round later today so will have another play with it and report back.
Just to check, the...
