ENTERPRISE

Thanks for the help. So the ISP I am with is Plusnet. The router us there "Plusnet Hub One" which is made by Sagecom. You can see a plentiful amount of screenshots of the admin interface here : All Screenshots for the Plusnet Plusnet Hub One SETUPROUTER.COM A collection of user submitted screenshots for the Plusnet Plusnet Hub One.

Hey guys, Does anyone know of a good place to pick up quality steel mesh ? Black preferably. Would be handy if they ship to UK. I am modifying the top of my case to create a new vent space, as I am looking to make it removable via magnetic strips, it needs to be steel and not aluminium. Any recommendations on something of good quality ? Thanks, E

Right now the ISP router is just a modem, so as such its handing out a private IP to Pfense. The ISP router has no bridge mode or anything like that. So for now I have it setup the easiest way I can I guess.

Thanks, I will give that a go tomorrow I will let you know how it pans out.

Thanks for that. I actually think it is more the ports. I realised later than inherently everything on the LAN should be good to go as per the default firewall rule. So I figured that the NAS App Store is using a specific port to communicate that I will have to locate and allow through. I did some port forwarding to allow Call Of Duty to play better so it has an Open NAT, though it still comes up as Strict. Some more things to investigate I guess. I am used to doing all these things on a super simple interface but I am getting the hang of it slowly I think. Thus far my port forwards look like the below, feel free to let me know if they are wrong haha.

Welcome @JosephStewartPE We certainly hope you enjoy your stay and get up and running with our Folding Team

The firewall on the ISP router is disabled and only using the one on Pfense, the router is essentially just acting as a modem at this point.

Hey Chaps, So I managed to get the network mostly working. The one thing I am struggling with, and likely as I am messing something up in the Firewall rules is that my NAS that sits on 192.168.1.27 is not able to update its apps any longer. So I assume I have to configure a rule on the WAN side to allow my NAS to communicate back and fourth from the internet right ? I did try it but still no particular joy. Can someone screenshot a pfense rule page of theirs as an example of allowing a device sitting on the LAN to communicate back and fourth to the internet. All very simple stuff...but apparently I don't know enough haha.

Thanks for the input bud. Cannot believe I didn't think of changing the subnet of the ISP router. Just goes to show how clouded my thinking is at the moment. Rocking suggestion. I took a look into the Firewall and port forwarding, certainly a different layout, more than what I'm used to lol.

Does not look like I can get it to work in bridge mode, so will likely have to have a subnet off of it, which is a little bit of a bummer as I will need to adjust a few devices round the house lol. So far as the Pfsense Firewall, by default how good is it ? Good as the standard ISP firewall ?

That is really helpful, thanks guys. I am unsure whether or not I will have the IPS router handle DHCP or if pfSense will do that for my network, will decide on that. I know that I will need to disable routing/firewall on the ISP router for obvious reasons, thanks for reminding me. As it happened, the SSD in my box died yesterday. It was an old work rig, so I had no idea on the SSD health....now I know. I have a new one coming in today so will re-install and give it another blast !

Dude, that sucks Too long heat exposure or did anything short ?

This all day. I will admit, I was chasing specs when I got my Gen4 drives. Do I NEED those speeds or even appreciate them ? Not at all lol. A Standard SSD or Gen3 NVme will do 99.9% of people just fine. Pricing also stinks as well on some Gen3/4 NVme drives too compared to your standard SSD, so I agree that there are some definite savings to be had.

Nice grab. Forget Gen4 when it cames to Gaming. Any performance uplift will be strictly on paper only...as in you will not see a real world difference. Got to love some of that Black Friday !

Hey Chaps, So I am trying to get my pfSense box running. I have pfSense installed and configured the WAN to DHCP. (192.168.1.xxx) and I have my LAN configured to Static (192.168.1.6). Essentially what I am expecting is to plug in the my ISP router into the pfSense WAN port of and then be able to get internet out of the pfSense LAN port, which I will then connect to my main switch. The issue is that for some reason the internet is not passing through the WAN to LAN on the pfSense box. Any immediate ideas ? I was under the impression that the Firewall auto configures but I am wondering if this is where my problem lays. Thanks !

I am back. So while I solved my initial problem as above. I wanted to try and make this Macro as automated as possible so that I can have the Macro initialize when a user uses the default save button within Solid works. I found a great resource for doing this as per : Run VBA macro automatically on document save using SOLIDWORKS API WWW.CODESTACK.NET Macro runs VBA code (or another macro) automatically on file save using SOLIDWORKS API However it is clear my novice knowledge of VBA is holding me back as whenever I try to implement my current Macro code using this resource, nothing happens when I run the Macro, not even any particular errors. Though it is clear I have done something wrong. My current Macro code is : ............................................................................................................................ 'Export Open Drawings as PDF_DWG (SW2019).swp ------------- 01/30/19 'Description: Macro to export all open drawings as PDF and DWG.

Sweet, I personally use as a NAS for my mass storage, so I run all my Plex media off of that. Never had an issue fortunately.

Upon research checking official resources error code 90 is not a strictly referenced code, which I have come across before and it is so frustrating. Upon further general quick sleuthing, it seems most got the issue resolved via an RMA only.

Ha that is my bad. Im using the Dark Theme and you must have copied and pasted the other storage drive details as it comes up blanked out on the dark theme lol. So yeah, you have more storage than I thought

Nice. I'm guessing the Is one of those motherboards put together in todays markets using older Chipsets that you can pick up for real cheap ? As its also a plex server, are you storing your data on a NAS ? I only ask as your internal storage is small but I guess it depends on the size of your Plex library

Banned because its the weekend and I get one free ban !

Star Wars ?

You chaps are doing a stellar job !

I put ZERO stock in a 2x performance uplift, let alone a 3x. Unless they found some magic process or really are going to dump literally 100% extra power draw on the 4000 series...its not happening. If they did decide to just bang up the power drawer for the sake of keeping the performance crown....they can keep it.

Those be some big numbers. Well done guys that is awesome work !
