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

[01:05:59] \g/rizon Do you see it

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[01:16:28] \g/rizon So I had to remove it

[01:16:48] \g/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon The new modem's config is so basic I can't do shit with it

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

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

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

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

[01:22:36] \g/rizon 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/rizon I've never had trouble using my own router before, but suddenly it's an issue with this new modem

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

[01:24:50] \g/rizon 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/rizon 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

[01:26:53] \g/rizon lmao just tested an MMS on my wife's phone

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

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

[01:27:55] \g/rizon 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/rizon LA is pretty shit for connectivity, it seems you have to move to a more rural area for better internet

[01:28:50] \g/rizon Which is pretty fucking ass backwards imo

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

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

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

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

[01:31:06] \g/rizon Spoiled

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[01:36:45] \g/rizon I just

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

[01:36:47] \g/rizon lmao

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

[01:37:09] \g/rizon 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/rizon 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/rizon I hate mibbit so much but it's the only thing that works right now

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

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

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

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

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

[01:40:08] \g/rizon No

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

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

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

[01:40:44] \g/rizon Literal shit

[01:40:44] \g/rizon Actual

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[01:42:29] \g/rizon 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/rizon bbl frfr
