Does anyone have any idea why Fidium has short DHCP lease times that require DHCP release / requests instead of renewals? It causes a dropped packet or two due to the NAK followed by a broadcast DISCOVER. It's really annoying, especially because the IP address doesn't actually change, and the leases are so short – along the lines of 300-600 seconds. I don't know how anyone can play any twitchy online games with this kind of wonky DHCP service.

This is with my own router behind a Juniper switch in a VLAN with the ONT. There are no other devices on in the VLAN. At one point when I was moving the ONT's ethernet patch to a 10gb port, my router couldn't even get ANY dhcp leases, and had to dig

The worry you get when you see you only have 38% battery left… but then you remember that means you still have 19+ miles of range remaining.

So I've lived in highly urbanized areas my entire adult life (San Francisco, Chicago) and for various reasons I'm looking to move into the northeast area of the country. Things I really want:

1. Bike-friendly community. I did not need to own a car for a long time (well into my 30s) and the car I have now is primarily used for long distance trips (case in point, my current car is just about almost three years old and just hit 10k miles). I'm heavily into casual recreational riding and doing errands on a bike, but also in the past I used to race and still like race-level workouts, and I also love mountain biking (but the latter is less a requirement and more a perk). It probably helped that i

I probably should've checked the resistance when fully charging the battery the first time, but I neglected to. Flew this pack once, then got home to start charging it and noticed the resistance on cell 2 is way higher than the rest. Should I ask for a replacement? Maybe it will chill out on the next flight / charge cycle?

Sometimes I'm frozen by the Kaly / Tranzite indecision. Super stable, extremely quiet, cushy / fast gear drive, or totally wacky, even quieter, all-wheel 12p6s direct drive, both of which just go for miles and miles?

Side note: all my friends who think DD is not their thing have done 180s after riding that board (pneumatics on DD + AWD is a pretty unique experience).

I've only tested this with a pair of V2 goggles broadcasting to the Goggles 2 – the video quality is pretty horrendous. You can't use it the other way around either, from the G2 -> V2 goggles. Has anyone tried this with a pair of G2 goggles? Wondering if that actually functions at a basic, usable level.

It took less than a week to go 20,000 kilometers from Botany, New South Wales, Australia to Chicago (not direct), but it arrived just in time for that brief period when fall is super nice here.

In a weird miracle, I ended up with an extra one of these things. Do I keep it for any reason, or should I sell it? I'm not looking to gouge anyone and don't need the funds from selling, but if there's no reason to have an extra, I may as well sell it since so many people seem so desperate to get their hands on one.

I like having spares of things, but I can't remember the last time I've needed an extra DJI transmitter. Hell my Phantom 3 RC still works fine. If it would link up with an Air Unit I would definitely keep it (then I would definitely have a use for it), but they're not compatible. Though I would kick myself if I sold it, then they updated the firmware to work with an AU…

Has anyone ever had success trying to push the plastic gimbal suspension thing back into the receptacle? I remember this happening to my P3 way back in the day, and I had to send it in. Happened to my Avata, and even though it looks like a simple fix, it's a total bitch to shove that thing through the tiny hole, and I don't have any tools that would appear to help.

DJI support already authorized me to send it in, but I wanted to ask around before I send it off tomorrow.

For various reasons, I'm a big fan of direct drive. The only thing I've decent one I've seen lately has been the Onsra Black Carve 3. There have been rumors of an Atlas DD forever, but that doesn't feel like it's ever going to actually happen. There's the Miles Sex Panther, which is pretty middle of the road, and… anything else?

I have a gear drive board on order right now but it won't arrive for awhile. Do I just give up on getting a new dd board?

Kind of a weird question, but how does anyone have any recommendations for clearing out a nice, large patch of seamless asphalt that has some random gravel-ish rocks scattered around? I mostly ride to zen out while carving – I don't really care about speed… so when I found a large lot that just recently got paved over in anticipation of being sold to developers, I was all over it doing endless loops and tight circles and carving up a storm. This is particularly valuable as I live in a dense urban area, so finding any empty space, let alone something this nice AND within five minutes of my house, is a bit of a goldmine.

Of course urethane wheels and that rando opportune rock is going to be
