Theoretically. I would rather not leave the carbon footprint if I could avoid it and keep that machine off. I really rarely use it.
Thanks for the recs. I'll give it a shot.
@Tech Junky It could take awhile for the DHCP to crap out; it's really inconsistent. I imagine it is Windows. I wouldn't want to sit there indefinitely on Linux... I don't regularly use the machine, only for remote access, which would mean I need to babysit it to see when it happens. But I found...
Will try the wifi bridge but I had tried something similar without results. FWIW, the printer is a Brother QL-1100. I don't have much confidence that the bridge will be successful. The last one I used was a disaster. I'd be *very* curious if anyone successfully got *this particular* printer...
Hey Jack, good to see you.
Would a static IP really make a difference here? I should note - the MAC address *is* already assigned a static IP on the router level, I just haven't configured the adapter to use the address. I've never had to ever do this in my lifetime... seems strange this is...
Thanks. That's what I'm wondering, but why would the DHCP server time out all of the sudden? I've never had an issue with this before.
Are you suggesting that I restart DHCP Client under services.msc? Anything else?
How would this be prevented in the future?
The printer is actually a thermal...
...anyway, I think that's what it is.
When my Windows 11 Pro PC is idle, the Ethernet eventually shuts off and I get an APIPA IP (169.254.x.x) with no way to get it to wake up outside of a reboot.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers but don't know what it is. Unfortunately, this also...
The link works but I guess you're not I'm the US because this is a US link.
Here is where the link takes me:
Here is a video of the issue:
Is there no way around it?
Hmm I'm not sure. I got the 30W but it seems I would need a USB-A to USB-A which I don't have. I have an A-C but are those bidirectional? It's not working with the C on the charger end and the lighted device having the USB-A side. The standard cable the lights plug in with are still very weak...
So I bought these (linking isn't working on my mobile: https://a.aliexpress.com/_m0rClMW/ ) connected USB lights that run on 5v 2A connectors. Problem is when I connect too many consecutively, the further away ones obviously are weaker. While 5V 3A might work, I'll need something stronger due to...
But what if I could only test one device behind the router and get 200mbps consistently....and then I add another switch, another device, etc. and start getting less than 200mbps. Then wouldn't it be something BEHIND router, and not the modem/ISP/router?
Behind the LAN, I'm using iperf. To connect to the WAN, I'm using fast.com and other speedtest tools.
I don't see any impact internally using iperf.
I'm on OpenDNS, not Google, but I'm still not sure how to troubleshoot this...
