Forgot to mention they were zero's so yes have a usb/RJ45 splodge . None the less for IoT we need unique mac on everything. Surely the chinese can't think everyone will just have 1 usb/rj45 connector in their house?. But of course they don't care. I have loads of these. But for HA ( as it's Z wave ) they are used just for PoE capability therefore never cared about the Mac address. For whole house audio it matters

Useless human.

Right enough fecking about! Back to good old raspberry pi 3 or 4 (so a nice unique MAC ) ; dig out some amp hat's. Purchase a few poe hats. This should solve it all. Have quite a few zero's ( and amp hat's ) available if anyone is now interested??? Forgot I had this fan to overclock the bad boy!

Yeah I did think that. But whether I buy from Ebay/Amazon/Curry's etc. I've got no idea of the MAC situation I have I. All these devices are ultimately made in China. Just trying to find a permanent solution . I'm using pi zero with amp hat's because they are small and cheap but needed ethernet connection for reliability.Did try even doing POE to them - all the things I bought either failed or simply didn't work. Could swap back to raspberry pi 3/4's , but then I've got to buy new amp hats and they all use more juice.

Sigh! Doesn't work!. The USB RJ45 dongle (i.e. crap mass produced Chinese thing ) all have the same MAC - can't see a way round it. I'm guessing that perhaps I need a bridge/switch in-between modem and unmanaged switches. But can you get one that allocates ( or spoofs ) MAC's and of course IP??

Definitely the devices i.e. mass produced with same MAC SO.... https://kalitut.com/change-raspberry-pi-mac-address/ Seems to work! Random MAC address!!!

Not familiar with the Hik / doorbell connection . Can you ping the doorbell ? . On your router does it show up as a connected device with an IP address ? You might be better off posting in an IP cctv forum .

Oh my - that will get deleted

So not tile adhesive ? . Just tubed stuff like ct1 or gripfill ? . Far quicker than adhesive ….

That’s photos of your front door !

Kind of asked this before …. Whats the cheapest method to tile a wall ? . Decorative so no need to be waterproof etc . Ct1 on osb ? . Was thinking of getting the cheapest tile backer board so at least a good key .

After some wine I think I typed in “ big bollock door knockers “ ; but it’s all a bit of a blur to be honest

That's his Xmas pressie sorted

Hikvision sure . What’s up ?

Because they can . Logic and reason don’t come into it

Mcs I believe

This website is rubbish

Suck on my PV. If PV is generating juice and batteries are full and I'm not using said juice; where does it go?

This him???

It was called “ Onoff’s solar suck generation Ltd “ - I should of twigged

Spoke to a few companies randomly and get confusion! Most seem concerned that the DNO would not want me exporting more than 4kw ( this is my limit ). This is fine for me. So I guess I need to ask.... If I have 2 batteries, fully charged. Sun shining away. I'm using almost zero electric. Surely some method existing to limit my export to no more than 4kw?. I.e. I'm deliberately throttled to avoid overloading the grid. Where does 'unused' electric go??? ?

Having issues and conflicting info here. Firstly my original installer of PV and Tesla battery seems to have disappeared. How do I contact the DNO directly to find out what I can/cannot do? Secondly - conflicting info on multiple batteries! ; do they charge simultaneously? (thinking about it they must ) - but info seems to vary on this fact. Anyone got multiple batteries any brand?

I still don’t understand/ can translate

I heard the postman started you

Yeah loads . Abuse , lies . Criminal damage etc . Welcome to the world of fu*kwit neighbours when you submit planning applications. Don’t worry about it - (expletive deleted) ‘em I find telling them to get (expletive deleted)ed to their face a good way to deal with it ( I feel better anyway )
