    Scribe scribe 3.x_y - syslog-ng and logrotate installer

    I actually wasn't aware corsair made storage drives! I love their RAM but I guess I never bothered to look. Thanks! My hesitancy with external SSD is simply having a limp extremity protruding from my router, although I do realize as a long term solution that would be best. Hmmm, maybe if I had a...

    Flash drives vary in their durability depending on brand but as far as I can tell, the Samsung Fit Plus USB 64GB, 128GB, etc should be able to do the job without issue. Operating temps need to be below 140 Fahrenheit or 60 Celsius. Mine operates around 110 F. USB warranty covers 5 years, which...

    Router is either crashing or wifi is cutting out

    My situation and router logs look nearly identical to his. In fact router crashed around the same time, except they display May 5th default time. Blocked IP address was the Entware opkg update which connected to the Russian owned Yandex.Cloud LLC service. I didn't see any IDS associated with it...

    6Ghz issues with GT-AXE11000

    I'm not one of the experts on here but given the more information you've provided I would agree the UI hasn't updated correctly, but the 6GHZ works just fine on my AXE11000. Did you perform a dirty upgrade?

    6Ghz issues with GT-AXE11000

    It would appear that you mislabeled* your 5GHZ with 6GHZ. Site survey works just fine you just need to enable data collection to see any data

    SSH brute force and hacking attempts

    When I setup my first server and left door 22 open on the internet, someone eventually made their way through Asus AI Protection, hacked my password, and infected the server. I've since replaced everything, but figuring out the hard way is what led me to Merlin's firmware and learning how to use...

    Looking for usb interface wireless network card recommendation

    Arguing on the internet is like playing chess with a pigeon. One may be good at chess, but the pigeon is going to knock over all the pieces, take a sh!t on the board, strut around like they're victorious, then fly away to their flock, naturally as a pigeon does.

    https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/56265/difference-between-hz-and-bps "Hertz and Bits per Second do not mean the same thing. They do have a relationship, determined by the bit encoding used. To illustrate: Quadrature Phase Shift Keying: By encoding to one of 4 phase positions...

    Yes, I already relinquished the "it's possibly an engineering problem". And not sure why you need to explain it "stupidly simply" for me when clearly this is what should've been said originally to OP. It's unfortunate I had to aggravate you to correct both of our mistakes. In regards to the...

    This is rich. So you start by saying easy, just buy these thingy's and it'll work, but then I say wait maybe there's a reason it won't, so I try to understand the electrical engineering approach as to explain maybe why it doesn't exist, but then you finally decide to put in a little effort just...

    Hardware determines software. The issue we're talking about here is an electrical engineering problem, which involves understanding the relation between bit rate, HZ, and bandwidth, which is what WiFi uses. Just because USB can get 10Gbps doesn't mean it will work. Unless you can explain to me...

    Looking for usb interface wireless network card recommendation

    As a reminder, OP is looking for a USB product that provides the full performance output, with no compromises, in relation to PCIe I/O. Other products, say NVMe to USB, always compromise their performance in regards to this relation. As a consequence, performance and robust protocol features are...

    Looking for usb interface wireless network card recommendation

    And I think you're oversimplifying things, technology isn't magic, and sometimes it is beneficial to get into the weeds to try and understand why this would or wouldn't work. Obviously there must be a reason as to why there isn't readily available a WiFi A & E sled to USB adapter? Data...

    Yes one could finagle their way to get the pieces to fit, but I'm still not sure that would work. I think the issue is the complex WiFi protocols won't fit through the four bus connections on USB protocol, which significantly lowers HZ throughput even though hypothetically if you have a 3.2 Gen...
