  1. Sounds like a dog ! Must be somewhere to stick a cold tank and ‘pump’ to showers . Ceiling height in bathroom/ ensuite not high enough for a narrow long tank ? ( seen these whilst abroad )
  2. I needed 5 showers to run simultaneously. 4 off a big uvc . But it couldn’t manage 5 . So the main bathroom shower is electric fed off a cold header tank . Noisy but works ( also if uvc fails still a working shower available ) To clarify it’s a specific type of electric shower that plumbs to a header tank I.e not mains fed .
  3. This is important. I had tenants once fill the loft with crap and put a duvet over the electrics …. Needless to say we almost had a fire ……
  4. Yes ! Can you finish the other jobs please ? ( your SWMBO asked me to say that )
  5. I’m ok with the tv doing that . The mirrors on the ceiling put me off … Anyway now for ps5 with hdmi 2.1 !!!
  6. It's ok. I went and looked back at this. Although I can only support the TV from 2 screws (it's sat on ridge feet so won't slip ) there is an adjustment that isn't obvious but gave some extra height. All good now!
  7. Yep. That's how it is supplied. No other fittings. I'll email the bed manufacturer - but in the meantime is there not something I can purchase???
  8. Got my TV bed ( it's lush ); got a nice HDMI 2.1 tv. Problem is the lift mechanism doesn't line up very well with the 4 holes for mounting on the TV. Currently I have this which is too high; i.e the TV can't lower enough into the bed carcas. The horizontal mount on the bed at the rear can move up and down but not enough either way. I really need to mount the tv lower. I *presume* there's some vesa/bracket thing I can purchase to allow this? ( I'm guessing it could just be 2 vertical metal strips????)
  9. You need walk on glazing for sure
  10. Push hard enough it will fit ; you know that ?
  11. Plastic bag over the roll . Do your stuff ( with friends or not. ) . Remove said bag and clean up mess
  12. Tenant moved in ! ?
  13. I see you have left the default password and user id. Your bathroom does look a bit grim.....
  14. I reckon the one you have spying on me may have some range issues with WiFi to Cornwall. The others will 'play' for the camera....
  15. Only an issue if you add ethernet capability ( with chinese rubbish ). On WiFi you won't have those issues. Of course if you mean 3/4's etc. that have ethernet then they should all have unique Mac's . Why do you have 5? - which 5 people do you spy on?
  16. I prefer everything wired. For ethernet and power where possible. Wifi is left 'free' for mobile things like phones and laptops. You only have so much wifi bandwidth available. A host name still requires a unique IP ( which isn't a problem ). Non unique Mac addresses mess up ARP, network comms etc. . Switches/routers will send packet data to the wrong device if there is mac address confusion/duplication.
  17. 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
  18. Useless human.
  19. 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!
  20. 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.
  21. 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??
  22. 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!!!
  23. 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 .
