Americout is the new Brexit

So glad something else managed to top the chart. 

Also putting the phrase here, maybe it will catch on.

Android Samsung Print Service Plugin - unable to print

Symptom: (1) Able to see printer when in same subnet, after selected printer, all options and the Print button is greyed out. (2) When manually adding printer in Settings, got error "Unable to communicate with this printer." Solution: Make sure default SNMP Community is enabled, if you have that removed, see below. Community Name 1: (ticked) Community Name: public Access Permission: (ticked) Read Access    (not ticked) Write Access If Samsung is to rely on SNMP, it should either say in the application or on the printer settings page, or to offer an option to use alternative SNMP settings. It's been a year before I figured this out. I'm slow, I know.

UK Virgin Media Hub 4 Link Aggregation is very broken (balance-rr)

Image
 Virgin Media in the UK currently offers a "Gig1" service that offers ~1.2Gbps down and 50Mbps up.  While the topic of mediocre upload speed is valid, that is a discussion for another time.  While the interface on the HFC interface offers 1.2Gbps downlink bandwidth, the Hub 4 modem itself offers only 4 x 1GbE interfaces, essentially limiting the usable downlink throughput to GbE (in practice ~940Mbps).  This bloc post covers an undocumented feature, which allows aggregation of multiple GbE ports on the Hub 4, and create a WAN connection that is capable of >GbE speed.  WARNING: While the bonding is stable with this firmware on Hub 4, the Round Robin (and alb as well) seem to fail for no reason every now and then. This does not seem to be ready for production use.  Date tested: 2021-01-31 ISP Modem:                              Model:         ...

Anker Charger (130W, 6 Ports, GaN) (A2155) Mini Review

Image
Good on Anker for shipping the product in recyclable packaging. Specs listed on the back of the box. Comes with a C8 power cable of reasonable quality, though I do wonder how long the rubbery texture would last before it turn into some sort of gooey mess.  The charger itself.  Specs printed on the bottom of the device.  Note that it comes with some decent sized rubber feet.  A hidden power LED lights up when plugged in - I really like this, gives a premium feel to the product! Port C1 Capabilities - 105 Watts Port C2 Capabilities - 65W Port C3 Capabilities - 19.98W Port C3 Capabilities - 19.98W Port C4 Capabilities - 19.98W Size comparison to the old Anker Charger It tapers a bit more than the older model, but it's definitely thicker than the older model.  It also weights a bit more - I'd say it's 50% chonkier by feel.  I'm pleased to see that the new charger still fits in my Bellroy Tech Kit (standard sized one).  Bit more of a snug fit than before th...
