Right ! This was always my fear ! I have 2 sumps with high water alarm for grey / sewage water . Hi water alarm is audible but also linked to my HA . I also have 2 on Zoellar pumps for rainwater . I tested lots of pumps ! They all failed for various reasons . Zoellar are easily the best . Not cheap . Flooding is the thing that cannot happen. . I bought from https://www.sumpsandpumpsdirect.co.uk Don’t cut corners on this - bolts ‘n’ braces and then some . My configuration would require 4 pumps to fail before any flooding would occur .

That’s my policy !

Ah ! Didn’t realise that ! . As you say ; eventually could rival fibre …

I wonder …. Does starlink function as a mesh ? I.e if your satellite is knocked out of action ( by failure or deliberately ) does it simply re route to another node / satellite ??

Really !!! Christ - that is bodge x 1000 😁

Does this for me . Oh and it’s correct 😁

I always purchase things like this from Amazon - because it's easy to return 😁

Ir's easy. With Asus for example you just run a cat5 to each hub - then back to the central hub ( not through a switch ) then into your router. You've then got a wired wifi access point. You then change the mode of Asus to access point - that's pretty much it. So in Asus futuristic looking app - you can see what's connected (wired or wifi ) and you can see that the backhaul is also wired. Depending on your house though you may need numerous hubs - I manage well with 3.

Not familiar with air cube . Assumed it’s a cut down UniFi type thing . Basic throttling you would of thought would be in there somewhere …. I find a sledgehammer to an Xbox will limit download speeds .

Tried ubiquiti , then orbi - no joy . ASUS though - perfect !

The ubitique interface I thought had throttling support I.e you can limit bandwidth to a particular device ????

Sorry mis read the ‘n’ as an ‘h’

Ah (expletive deleted) it ! I’ll pack it out with window packers then foam it . Quality !

No ! Because it looks even worse !

Yes, yes, yes - the title is a clue. Right at the start of my build ( in the dim and dark past now ) I had to construct some light wells ( they are external to the build ). I've avoided doing anything with them as I can see they are a "pigs ear" as @Mr Punter would say. They are no where near level or straight - so it's fix/bodge mode. TBH in reality you won't ever see any of this; so it's all good 🤣 This timber for example is level ( with the gap in! - the gap is wedged shaped so not consistent ) the block work is MUNG. Structural glazing will sit on this upstand so I'm not happy about packing it out with some skinny timber and window frame packers and then foam filling it ( that sounds too dodgy for even me ). I was contemplating just doing a thick bed of cement on that off brick work and screw down the timber ontop of that until level. But timber against concrete externally ; not a good idea??? I then googled "expanding concrete " - you know like expanding foam - but structurally strong. I can but wish! So best way to fix this ( there are a good few more like it also )??? Knew this would come back to bite me on the arse one day.

@Onoff got his batteries installed I see ….

Did they give an eta on this ? . It’s been promised for *ages* . Such a simple obvious thing to have .

I have a use for you .

Blah blah blah

Barkeepers friend …. 🙄👍

Too much time ; not enough work 😁

That’s all they had in stock

It is ; my printer broke
