Temporary MarjoleinHad a terrible time last night (on arrival in Amsterdam) getting online: like in Groningen wired internet didn't work, and aparently I'd never used Tine (new laptop) via wireless here yet, so that didn't work either. Neither did my new phone. Haha security, only 'registered' MACs can connect. Luckily my old phone connected to wifi without and grumbles so I could get into the router from there and change settings so the new phone and the laptop could connect as well. #phew! But now that the wired connection doesn't woRk in either Groningen (it suddenly stopped working there) -or- Amsterdam, suspicion falls on the USB-C to Ethernet adapter I'm using. So maybe I should get a new (or 'spare') one... #networking (Did I explain this month already that I hate hardware? #ihatehardware!)

Temporary MarjoleinOK, one thing I'm sure of by now: my internet connection craps out when the connection is *idle*. Always from Tine, both i Groningen and Amsterdam 9that 3 different routers), and both for line connection and wifi - the behavior is always the same. I've now been streaming an internet radio station for over 2 days and it's been solid... That's a decent workaround but of course no solution - and besides, it takes up bandwidth which is noticeable when loading heavy web pages. :( I'm ducking but so far have not found any description even of this, let alone a fix. Maybe I should ditch NetworkManager and try wicd? #networking #troubleshooting #timeout !linux #ubuntu

Temporary MarjoleinStruggled practically all day with #networking: two laptops, two providers, two modem/routers... laptops and connections seem to be fighting each other, and I'm sure there's a solution but I haven't found it yet. It's probably quite simple, even. And finding a way to stoer all data in KeePassX is complicated, too (partly because both modem/routers ahve such a different organisation of their data, and use different terminiology). Ugh. And I really need to get this sorted or I won't be able to set up a decent sync-and-backup system either. By now my brain is shutting down (at least the 'networking' part of my brain). I think I need a hot shower and an early sleep...
*sigh* on and off and on and off... maybe I should fiddle with DHCP on the router(s) but I have no time for that today. I need to finish work on one of my new trousers firster so I can wear a clean, new trousers. #networking @tobias
These two little devices give me considerably more leeway in connections: the Mouse antenna now sits on the (USB-2) minihub, leaving two more ports, while HEMA USB stick sits in one of the three USB-3 ports on the USB-C to Ethernet converter, leaving two extra USB-3 ports, as well as the (powered) USB-3 port directly on the laptop, allowing my Blue Ray drive still to be connected to Tine as well #networking #usb
Some searching revealed that - to my surprise - Bluetooth CAN indeed interfere with Wifi. One possible solution: move Wifi to the 5Ghz band - which I cannot execute right now since the modem/router new provider has set me up with doesn't support that. So if I want to listen to music over Bluetooth while working on the internet, i may have to buy a new modem/router. *sigh* #networking #bluetooth #wifi
!grrr - Support for IPv6 is still wide and far between. Most Dynamic DNS hosts I'm trying are either not supporting it at all, or depending on an external script - looking at a Perl script now that needs a module not on my laptop. Since I'll eventually need to run this on the NAS, that isn't very hopeful. There's still hope, but this is taking far too log and it's far too complicated to do something that by now *should* be simple! #ipv6 #perl #networking #dns
#hammock time! did a lot of studying again today (after teh pln for step 3 fell through) but at least I have a new plan for step 3 now :) Skipping another Tai Chi lesson #tomorrow to try and catch up little... #networking #linode #dns #he good night !tzaf everyone !fediverse !tempfix
In Firefox this setting is called network.http.fast-fallback-to-IPv4 (was set to default boolean true). I set it to FALSE but that doesn't seem to change the test result :( #networking #IPv6 #firefox #fastfallback
After correcting that, and testing again, I get: "Your browser has real working IPv6 address - but is avoiding using it. We're concerned about this." Seems to be related to another setting, for "fast fallback" (Chrome/Chromium has this mechanism, too): test both connections, if IPv4 is faster, comntinue with that... #networking IPv6 #firefox #chrome #chromium #fastfallback
