[01:05:46] \g What do you mean what is it

[01:05:58] \g Do you see it

[01:07:12] \g You'd see it properly if you were on rizon

[01:07:30] \g Bot probably doesn't pass color codes properly

[01:07:51] \g Fucking Spectrum came and installed a new modem and router today, compleeeetely fucked my homelab config

[01:08:29] \g Will likely need to rebuild my domain controllers/dns/dhcp servers tomorrow to get shit working properly

[01:16:05] \g DNS isn't resolving

[01:16:08] \g Group policies aren't applying

[01:16:26] \g New router doesn't work with my Nest router

[01:16:27] \g So I had to remove it

[01:16:48] \g I may just have to spend several hours tomorrow trying to figure out why it doesn't work, and try to fix it

[01:17:45] \g Previously I had the old ISP router daisy chained to the Nest router, and the Nest router plugged directly into the modem. With the new modem, anything connected to the Nest router can't access the internet

[01:18:42] \g The new modem's config is so basic I can't do shit with it

[01:21:02] \g Cable, Spectrum

[01:21:54] \g You have to use their modem yeah

[01:21:58] \g You don't have to use their router though

[01:22:09] \g Yep, Spectrum is shit

[01:22:36] \g But 1) They're the only provider in my area that isn't AT&T and 2) They don't throttle (at least they claim they don't)

[01:24:09] \g I've never had trouble using my own router before, but suddenly it's an issue with this new modem

[01:24:22] \g It's pretty infuriating

[01:24:50] \g tbh I only called them out because my wife and I weren't able to use call over wifi and my wife couldn't sent MMS messages over wifi

[01:25:18] \g We thought it was our carrier at first but I had my sister and a few friends over, who all have different carriers, and they experienced the same issue

[01:26:52] \g lmao just tested an MMS on my wife's phone

[01:26:55] \g And she still can't send

[01:26:58] \g So it was all for fucking nothing

[01:27:55] \g We're looking for a new place to move to before the end of the month so I can't dump all the money into ubiquiti gear I wanted to just yet

[01:28:44] \g LA is pretty shit for connectivity, it seems you have to move to a more rural area for better internet

[01:28:49] \g Which is pretty fucking ass backwards imo

[01:29:23] \g Spectrum and AT&T seem to have a monopoly on the metropolitan area

[01:30:02] \g I just want symmetrical gigabit with my own gear, is that so much to ask

[01:31:03] \g Addicted is the wrong word

[01:31:04] \g I'd say

[01:31:06] \g Spoiled

[01:31:14] \g I complain whenever my speeds dip to sub-100mbps

[01:31:55] \g American internet is a fairly corrupt industry

[01:32:00] \g Thanks to the FCC

[01:33:29] \g I would love 10 gbit

[01:33:40] \g I'd have to move all the way out to the boonies to get it though

[01:33:45] \g Or get a business account

[01:33:59] \g Some 10gb is pretty cheap

[01:34:13] \g Non-business

[01:35:03] \g I can't even connect using mirc lmao

[01:35:12] \g It disconnects right after connecting, but before joining any channels

[01:35:47] \g It's not a speed issue

[01:36:00] \g If I run speed test I'm getting 880 mbps

[01:36:04] \g idk what it is

[01:36:45] \g I just

[01:36:46] \g Fucking said why

[01:36:47] \g lmao

[01:36:59] \g Or did the message not go through

[01:37:09] \g 18:35 \g I can't even connect using mirc lmao 18:35 \g It disconnects right after connecting, but before joining any channels

[01:37:21] \g 18:35 \g It's not a speed issue 18:35 \g If I run speed test I'm getting 880 mbps 18:36 \g idk what it is 18:36 \g latency issue?

[01:37:28] \g I hate mibbit so much but it's the only thing that works right now

[01:39:44] \g I mentioned it earlier

[01:39:44] \g The settings on my router are super basic

[01:40:00] \g Literally the only things I can set are the SSID, password, DNS server 1, and DNS server 2

[01:40:02] \g And port forwarding

[01:40:03] \g That's IT

[01:40:08] \g No

[01:40:13] \g This router is a piece of shit

[01:40:24] \g Also I can only manage it from the Spectrum app

[01:40:36] \g 192.168.1.1 tells me to download the app and manage the settings there

[01:40:44] \g Literal shit

[01:40:44] \g Actual

[01:41:10] \g Spectrum is actually on my shitlist now

[01:41:14] \g bbl going to dinner

[01:41:33] \g My last router gave me the choice of "Basic settings" and "Advanced settings"

[01:41:36] \g Like any ISP router should

[01:41:39] \g That's how you do it properly

[01:41:45] \g Not removing the advanced settings entirely

[01:41:47] \g That's fucking stupid

[01:42:29] \g I'm ready to throw the router at the wall and fix my Nest by any means necessary. Google Nest is also a piece of shit but it looks like gold compared to the Spectrum router

[01:42:51] \g bbl frfr
