| 01:54 | Exaga> | jnettlet: not so good for me but life has its ups and downs :> |
| 05:52 | jnettlet> | Exaga: sorry to hear that. |
| 13:50 | Exaga> | jnettlet: i'm not here looking for sympathy :D |
| 13:50 | jnettlet> | Exaga: :) more empathy than sympathy. I know what it is like |
| 13:51 | Exaga> | just wanted to ask rabeeh why the postage to U.K. for a clearfog pro enclosure is as much as the enclosure itself ($40) on the solidrun store website |
| 13:51 | jnettlet> | like my wife re-arranging my living room and now I am trying to re-position my APs to get full bandwidth in my office upstairs |
| 13:51 | Exaga> | so it'll cost me $80 just for the enclosure |
| 13:52 | Exaga> | jnettlet: this is why i havea wired network and the only wireless devices are a laptop and iPhone :> |
| 13:52 | jnettlet> | Exaga: most likely just weight issues. I doubt there are import duties |
| 13:53 | jnettlet> | Exaga: I wish. But I rent and Danish homes are miserable for running wires. I used to use a powerline network, but it can't keep up with my new 300/300 fiber connection |
| 13:53 | Exaga> | there's a guy in germany selling them for about $50 on ebay |
| 13:53 | jnettlet> | I know first world problems |
| 13:53 | jnettlet> | I thought we had a couple of resellers in the UK at this point. |
| 13:53 | Exaga> | hmm powerline is ok if you don't demand too much from the available bandwidth |
| 13:54 | Exaga> | but if i were to use them, i'd still stick with the wired network |
| 13:55 | jnettlet> | I could get a solid 100Mbps out of them |
| 13:55 | jnettlet> | never a glitch after I found a set that actually delivered |
| 13:55 | Exaga> | i use the flat cat6 ethernet cable |
| 13:55 | jnettlet> | Exaga: ping these guys. They are associated with AVNet who do our Marvell redistribution. https://uk.farnell.com/c/embedded-computers-education-maker-boards/development-board-enclosures?brand=solidrun |
