ENTERPRISE

All I can saw is port forwarding works flawlessly with my setup, ISP Router forwards traffic to my PfSense FW and then my PfSense FW forwards the traffic on to my actual devices. It is possible CGNAT is the issue or something related to PPPOE, though I cannot see how the PPPOE would make any difference.

Fair point, we could do that Thanks for the feedback I will do another mock up with Ultra's suggestion but perhaps use a short form date for the last update such as 11/01/24 @ 10:45. I would have to see if I can have it so that the date format matches a users locality...otherwise it may confuse some.

Not surprising, I mean considering the different revenue streams Microsoft have going and the fact that the Apple fandom IMHO is and has been slowly dying off for a little while now. So many people I used to know who used to be die hard apple fans have woken up to the fact you do not need to pay Apple prices to get a good experience and are now subsequently all on Android on varying device types.

Hello all, Feasibly, and taking into account some of the feedback, I think we have the below options. 1. "Started By" Date only, Example on a larger resolution Example on a smaller resolution 2. "Started By" Date with last user to update the thread. Example on a larger resolution Example on a smaller resolution 3. "Started By" with no date with the last user to update the thread Example on a larger resolution Example on a smaller resolution Soon I will put these up (plus any other ideas on a poll vote). Once chosen I will speak to the dev and see what we can make happen.

Well the only thing I can think of at the moment is the ISP router is still either interfering, which you can fix by configuring the ISP router to put your Firewall Device in the DMZ, which means the ISP router will ignore your Firewall device completely regarding any security protocols and will auto forward all traffic. Other than that, it has been known that CGNAT can cause issues with port forwarding. It is possible that your ISP uses CGNAT. What is CGNAT? And why doesn't port forwarding work with CGNAT? | Brsk Help Center HELP.BRSK.CO.UK A technical article on what CGNAT is and its uses

Nice, that box will see you through nicely:)

UPNP I find to be junk personally. Always manually forward ports if you can. I assume that you have forwarded the ports in your ISP router to the IP of your Firewall box, then in the Firewall box forwarded the same ports to your PC's static IP ? You essentially have to forward the port traffic to your Firewall, and then forward it again to your PC. I also assumed your PC has a static IP ? Or bonded an IP to your MAC address ?

I agree that more effort must be made on the video descriptions/thumbnails with appropriate back links. It is something I will add to the list

I will put together some concepts and pop them in here later this evening. Each concept will have a Widescreen version, for those with monitors larger than a laptop and a laptop/mobile version. To give a rough idea on look depending on screen types. I will likely hard limit the topic titles to 2 lines, after which point truncation will kick in. This is to prevent overly long titles making each "block" too tall.

Hmmm, I am not 100% sold on the idea of another channel. The current YT Channel would suffice, all that is required is to organise it into playlists such as Review Content, Podcasts and another category to be named for user based uploads. I do not see the benefit of managing an additional channel strictly for a different category of content that relates to the same subject matter . Perhaps I am missing the point?

I think the issue here is resolution as the latest section obviously thrives more when it has more screen real estate and ultimately is better, I will have to discuss with the dev how these elements scale depending on resolution and try and improve the experience for smaller screens. Yes, I think we could combine the date with the name keeping it on the same line.

Hello all, With a view of having more of the topic title showing on each topic block in the "Latest" sections, I am thinking of removing the "Started" Date/Time. So we are all on the same page, I am thinking of removing the below element within the red box While I could keep the date and time, this would lead to the height of each block becoming rather chunky to a point where It would look undesirable. I feel that the started date/time element is actually not all that necessary and could be a sensible sacrifice in order to not have the topic title as truncated as it currently is and have the title carry on to a second line if necessary. Please see the attached poll and vote for or against this change Thanks, E

All ideas welcome...even if weird

Hmmm, Now I could be wrong but isn't Linkedin best for singular people to show off work history and portfolios? Not sure if it would be a good fit. Thanks for the suggestions so far guys.

I will certainly give you a shout once I have things a little more organized YouTube ads could be another reasonable way to advertise the site, no doubt. Good idea

Awesome No ideas on the media outlets so far as which are free and which are paid, but I will cross that bridge when I start really delving into it. Free obviously better, but if the cost is worth it, I am all ears.

Release.

Anyone with the current 4000 series lineup (non-super) might as well hold on to what they have and wait for the 5000 or 6000 series to drop. Anyone with a 3090 should also keep hold of it until the 5000 series. I don't thing the Super series has shaken anything up but to be fair this should not be a surprise. Afterall the super series is only a refresh.

Ebay for sure. I take a look at the competition, AKA other sellers and I choose to undercut them if I would like a quick sale....or match them if I am happy to wait.

Hello all, 2024 will be a year of promoting the community through appropriate avenues to let the world know "We are here!" and increase community traffic. This will be done through the avenues as listed below and this post will be updated accordingly with respects additional avenues used and when the promotion has been completed/ in progress. Promote EHW via Technology related Facebook/Twitter groups - Feel free to suggest any groups! Promote EHW via Local Media Outlets Promote EHW via International Media Outlets (USA/CA/EU) - Feel free to suggest any outlets! Pay Per Click Google Ads Supply EHW Business Card/Pamphet with every Ebay (or similar) sales. - If you are happy to help with this, I can supply you with the media to do so! Clean up YT Channel, better descriptions with backlinks and improved Thumbnails. Possibly merge Podcast videos to Official EHW channel. I am keen on promoting the community to increase interactions between our membership and to increase the volume and variety of content for all to enjoy. I am dedicated to making this community the best it can be, we (in my opinion) have the platform down which for me was always an integral stage. Now it is time to bring the people! Online discussion forums is a competitive space and these days it is hard for a new start-up to gain traction. We have done well up to this point through word of mouth. Thanks to all who have spread the word of EHW and I hope you will continue to do so If you have any suggestions on any additional avenues you feel would help, please feel free to post. I feel the more minds put to the task, the better. All the best, E

Definitely, to be honest it is the only way I can "Justify" the upgrade to a newer generation. In order to avoid downtime I try to purchase the new GPU and get it in my system first, then will sell the older GPU to offset the cost. The 3090 I have now is the single most expensive card I have ever purchased, and that was even with using the EVGA queue system before everything went nuts with Covid/Mining. I think I will be preserving my 3090 for some time to come. As much as I would enjoy a 5090, I reckon the price of it (assuming Nvidia keep on trend) will put it outside the realm of justifiable. Gone are the days of buying this "Because I can" lol.

Yeah this is it, from a financial point of view, im not looking forward to the next few years as a homeowner, bills, parent, tech enthusiast when it comes to how much things are costing. Something will have to give and usually it's the hobbies we enjoy...go figure.

Unsurprising really. Handheld PC gaming has really taken off so it makes sense for MSI to want a piece of the action.

Hello all, I am up for debating and the continuation of this conversation, however let's be sure to keep it civil as it has mostly up to this point. It is clear not everyone's experiences will be the same and there will be some learning done on both sides of the fence Thanks, E

Released.
