    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    So tonight I had problems connecting, checked SNR twice like 5 mins apart and the values were vastly different. Did a port recreate and internet connection restored. This kind of problem I can live with - what gave birth to this forum posting was the fact that a port recreate did not restore the...

    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    That is a screenshot taken from my ISP's dashboard/control panel for clients. I'm with Axxess. I'm assumed most ISP's have the option to report on the technical details. Maybe browse around your client control panel.

    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    So since I complained on the forum my connection haven't misbehaved at all :) Below is the SNR taken one evening when the line worked as expected. Waiting for it to die now so that I may grab the info :)

    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    Yeah - this can be a frustrating exercise. I actually like the OpenServe technicians that was assigned to fix my ADSL line. It was noisy on my side once (in my ceiling where I had messed with some wires when I installed a new ceiling a few weeks prior.) and then also at the exchange. I think...

    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    S SNR is normally the first thing I check when having issues and though it's been a problem in the past the values are just fine when I'm experiencing these nightly down times. As Murphy would have it my connection was stable since my first post. I think the infrastructure is under immense...

    Weird issue with my ADSL connection

    Very possible. Is there some way Telkom or OpenServe can confirm this? Or even better have a page with realtime capacity usage which will help a lot of users I'm sure.

    Sonoff for irrigation?

    I found this vid where the guy wired the 4 channel Sonoff to his Hunter kit and maybe it'll put your mind at ease too. If the Sonoff device can be flashed with Tasmota then I'm pretty much sold. Unfortunately my local shop is out of stock.

    Sonoff for irrigation?

    Hey Mars; Did you make any progress on your controller plans? I'm weighing my options at the moment and are struggling to figure out what is best. I'd like to hear about your set up and how it works for you if you ended up doing it. Cheers

    Recommended SSD

    Hi, I want to fit an SSD in my MacBook Pro 2012 model. Any recommendations at which reliable brand & model I should look at? I will have a dual boot config (OSX and Windows). Around 750GB to 1TB should be fine. Thanks - I appreciate it!

    Any takes on No-Name brand tablet PC's?

    Is there someone out there with experience on one of the many no-name brand tablet PC's like this one? I am somewhat interested in something like this despite the low specs. I don't wan't to pay all the R's for a Xoom or Galaxy - and I won't use it for business either. I'm thinking of using...

    VOIP on the CellC HSPA+ band

    Hi all, Does anyone know whether the CellC HSPA service can be used to dial landlines and mobile phones? I was thinking something like FNBConnect's digital phone which can do VOIP but also make calls to phones. Thanks
