r/Skigear•

Hi, I'm looking to finally purchase my first pair of skis. Always rented them out of Belgium for a lower price and usually the 'gold' category skis were unused/new.

However, last trip I had to rent them on-site in Switzerland for 250 EUR, which got me convinced to buy from now on.

  • I am: 30 years old, male, 167 CM (5ft5), 63KG (138.8 lbs)
  • Skill level? 8 or 9 out of 10 - been skiing since I could walk, one or two trips a year. I like to carve, ski fast (average of 70-80kph or 45-50pmh with topping out around 100kph while still comfortable).
  • Area: European Alps (French mostly) - resort skiing
  • Pistes: Mostly groomers, sometimes a bit of powder if there's fresh snow
  • Usual rented sk

r/Ubiquiti•

Current set-up:

  • Regular ISP Router
  • Ubiquiti USW-24-POE
  • Ubiquiti UniFi U6+ 3-pack

My switch is connected to the router and connects to the multiple ethernet ports across the house. I also have my three access points. However, it seems that my phone does not switch over to the different APs as I would have thought. Probably I would need to set them up as a Mesh system, but I'm not sure how to best do it. Does anyone have a similar setup where this does work?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I’ve just moved to a newly built 2-story 2.7k feet square house. Internet speed should be around 200mbps/s. Need: gaming, streaming, not much more. We have UTP cables running to each room and the router is in the basement.

I have looked at the FAQ and scrolled in the subreddit, but could not find the most popular routers/switches/extenders.

I’m not sure if a mesh system is even needed, since I could connect extenders directly to the UTP outlets.

What would you recommend for this case?

Thanks in advance!

r/netflix•

As title mentions, since a few days Netflix has issues with bad quality. My LG Smart TV has a wired connection and my internet at home is really fast.

The strange thing is that it's only Netflix. All other streaming services (Prime Video, Youtube, Plex,...) have no issues at all.

Things I have tried to solve the issue: reload Netflix, reinstall Netlix, go from wifi to a wired connection, reset router, checked for updates for the LG TV (but there are none atm).

Any ideas on how to solve this? Any help is much appreciated!

r/Workspaces•

I recently moved to a rental where I'll stay for 3 years. In my home office (4 out 5 days of homeworking) I currently have issues with acoustics. When I'm in meetings, people would assume i'm in a bathroom if my camera isn't on..

I have been looking at acoustic wall panels but I would prefer to not glue them to the walls of a newly built house.

I will probably have blinds instead of curtains since the homeowner likes them more aesthetically, which I believe won't help much. Already bought a plant and a dense carpet which didn't help much.

What could I do to improve the acoustics without damaging any of the walls/ceilings?

Hi all,

I recently moved and somehow (I believe) my cellphone keeps sending signals through my speakers and my microphone.

If I lay my phone above my speaker volume knob, it emits an extremely annoying and loud noise, exactly like the old interference sound from long ago. This sound comes and goes.

Not only this, but if I'm on discord with friends they hear pshhh noises if my phone is nearby.

Steps undertaken to solve it:

  1. Check all cables. Make sure none are on the ground (read that somewhere). They are all in the same position as before I moved: under my desk through cable management.

  2. Switching speaker set: I had 15 year old Creative speakers. I switched to the Bose Compan

r/audiophile•

Hi all, as title says. I'm checking my options to connect both laptop & desktop. Whether or not I'll need new speakers and/or an AMP.

Current Setup:

  • 1 desktop

  • 1 laptop from work (closed to the side)

  • 2 monitors connected to both devices

  • USB switch for the keyboard & mouse

  • 15 year old Creative speakers which are starting to fail, specifically the volume button where I currently have a piece of plastic jammed into as a temporary fix

  • B&O headset which I rarely use, mostly with my phone. Dont kill me, but I prefer to game with iphone earbuds.

During the day my laptop is on and after hours I use my desktop (gaming & side project).

Problem: I would like to u

This would be used by a group of 30 people and the voting should be open for 2 to 3 days. Any participant should be able to vote on around 30 contributions (with some details).

Does anyone know something (similar) that could help me?

Big thanks in advance!

Issue: My pc disconnects irregularly - sometimes every 5 mins in the evening, sometimes every 30 mins - for around 20 seconds. The issue started some weeks ago (haven't been home much). When it disconnects it does not show any sign of error, no yellow triangle on the taskbar internet icon. When this happens, the regular wifi works (I can instantly check a youtube video on my laptop next to me)

Current set up:

A modem with router downstairs and 3 powerline extenders throughout the house. We purchased this a month ago. One is in my bedroom (the furthest one from the router) and I'm using ethernet to connect to my desktop. Modem: Telenet, from Belgium. We can't remove the modems. Router:

r/eGPU•

Hi,

I have been looking all over for a solution to my problem. I am looking for a eGpu box that will fit my GTX 1060 Strix, and is compatible with my early 2013 Macbook Pro Retina. The dimensions are: 11.73 " x 5.28 " x 1.57 " Inch 29.8 x 13.4 x4 Centimeter

The reason for an eGPU is because I already have a desktop with a GPU at home (Belgium), but I am an expat in Spain. So I will just bring the graphics card with me next time.

Which enclosure do you guys recommend? The main purpose will be to bootcamp to windows and game (Overwatch, Fortnite). I will probably also buy an external display, since I have seen quite a lot of issues with the internal display connected.

Thanks
