Finally got around to trying my ZIP drive again last night. Found an old PC with PATA HD (Pentium 4 running XP Home) and it does indeed work. Sadly about 20% of the disks I had are no longer readable but I don't think they had anything on I will miss (directories were readable). I did have some...
What's plugged in and powered on at any particular time can have a dramatic effect on powerline adapters. I remember doing some tests in a community hall and they looked really good until we plugged in another 4 or 5 PCs, then the speed dropped horrendously. Upload survived better than...
Best I ever got when on 1000Mbps was about 700 using WiFi 6 on the iPhone. Just done a successful speedtest, I guess you need to talk to their tech support. That's actually one criticism I have and that is their TS is not 24x7
Are you doing a test using Ethernet? Wired I always seem to get close to my contracted speeds. I was on 1000 and got 940+ up and down, now on 500 and get 460/470. There is overhead so you'll not get 1000.
Been running on the Ally since I got it, it works great with 15W performance mode, so I don't need to listen to the fans scream. Great way to collect my 275 MS Reward points each day.
Following mainly the help from @lucid I've acquired a HDMI 1 in 2 out splitter. This seems to be working pretty well even with my 'unrealistically' long HDMI cable to the bedroom.
Thanks all.
The advantage of a static IP is so you can host services yourself by use things like port forwarding. Normally Lit only give you a CGNAT connection so you can't create rules like this and use it in conjunction with a DDNS service.
I have a static IP and replaced the Lit Fibre router with a PC...
I have at least one Zip drive and a bunch of disks but last time I tried it I failed to get it to work? I suspected it was because the PC/OS was too new, is there a good idiots guide as to what OS supports them these days? Of course it could be it's suffering from that click of death or whatever...
