• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    How do I access internal network through an MDU remotely?

    I had the same issue at one of my apartments. My solution was to get a UBNT Edgemax light router and a VPS. Then i setup a VPN tunnel between the two and set certain traffic to route out the VPN tunnel. I kept having issues with SSH when i was double natted and the router/firewall/hotspot thing...

    Inexplicable connection timeouts on my internet

    I had an issue like this on my comcast connection. It turned out to be that the connection was split to many times before it reached the modem. The modem showed that it would lose sync and then reboot after a bit. However my signal levels where worse then yours. Can you see the modems logs and...

    The mikroitk wiki is your friend. I wouldn't use openvpn on the mikrotik though it is very limited.

    Need help with a Sophos UTM

    Oh yes don't forget that especially if you enable web filtering. I had to add rules in for netflix and a couple of devices like the roku and wd live tv before it would work correctly.

    Need help with a Sophos UTM

    By default Sophos blocks all outgoing ports so you need to make sure that whatever port the NAS is trying to communicate on is allowed out. I don't use that function on my synology but i had the same problem with my nest and philips hue lights when i setup my sophos UTM.

    Are there any reasonably priced per U colocation services for enthusiasts?

    Ah good i had been contemplating trying them but i think i'll pass based off of that. Datashack and WSI are almost the same company from what i've seen. I'm going to be losing two of my servers i have colo'd in CA for free and to replace them i've been contemplating a OVH server.

    Its a decent host for the price. Apparently if you get compromised they have been known to just shut off access. I haven't had any down time and the speeds are decent the majority of the time. I use ESXi and run my lab, gaming, and mumble server on it. None of my friends have complained so far...

    I'm going to guess datashack in Kansas City and soyoustart/ovh in Canada. I pay $59 for a dedicated server at datashack.

    Outside Wireless Antenna's

    In Northern California it is a fairly common thing as they "blend" them in with the surrounding trees. Here is a picture of one. Some stop lights have wireless units on them depending on the location.

    Upgrading pfsense

    The nano release is for embedded devices usually as it is meant for install on a CF card. I had to look at this for the specificspage. The VGA file means it uses the VGA output instead of just the serial console. Depending on the way you installed it originally you are probably best off using...

    Another Dumb Criminal of the Day

    wow thats pretty bad...the cellebrite i used at radioshack could transfer 100pics in less then 15mins. The only time we would see the pictures is if the phone decided to go into slideshow mode when the cellebrite started the transfer. It was rare but it did happen.
