... that was literally an LOL! Thank you. -pablo

Hi, See my response above ... each radio costs about 120 CAD. I don't know if that price-point works for you. Cheers, -pablo

Howdy, I generally try to use the right tool for the job. Sometimes this means plunking down more $'s. Given your long wireless reach, if you want any type of good quality, a wireless cam isn't going to cut it. Given your situation, I would use wireless gear to create a point-to-point...

Attached is the latest US logarithmic death graph[1]. As you can see, deaths are still growing exponentially. :( If you're not familiar with logarithmic graphs, attached is an Excel spreadsheet I created to illustrate the difference between a linear and a logarithmic graph (base 10). If...

For Herd Immunity to be effective, the percent of the population (herd.... moo! ... I have to say that) that must be immune is proportional to how contagious it is. This is a cool article[1]. References Herd Immunity: How does it work? — Oxford Vaccine Group

Hi, Do you mean this article? [1] It states that "rapid test kits" are faulty. It is forcing the health workers in Taiwan "to rely on conventional laboratory tests." This article is relatively recent - March 25th, 2020. There was an issue in the US with some of the original testing kits...

Hi Arjun, From an NPR article[1]: and References Mystery In Wuhan: Recovered Coronavirus Patients Test Negative ... Then Positive

If you like numbers, below are some sites: US Hospital Resource Use based on COVID-19. Both US and by State - IHME | COVID-19 Projections Worldometer, overall, by Country and for some, within each Country (e.g. by state within the US). To track exponential growth, view the logarithmic...

Have you looked at the Windows application log for error messages?

If it were me, I'd run perfmon and capture per process memory usage: How to Track CPU and Memory Usage Per Process Once you have some good data, try to create as small a test case as simple/small as possible. Once you have it, report it to the dev. Many years ago, I remember I was using some...

Hi, As others have mentioned, you should be able to easily figure out what is consuming the most energy in your home. But, it does sound like you're itching for a reason to upgrade ... ;) ... see below. TL;DR I'd gather CPU data at the processor level before deciding whether to upgrade the...

Hi, I ran Ethernet from the house to the garage but due to each building having different grounds, I'd blow switches. I could have tried fibre but in the end, I went with wireless as it was cheaper. I don't move much data between the two buildings. My Internet is currently 120 Mbps/20 Mbps...

Hi everyone, Per my first post and the excellent data provided (thank you all so much!), I will be sourcing IPC-T5442TM-AS 4MPs from Andy (I want to support him given he provides cameras for reviews). In looking at the camera specifications, I see I can add a 256 GB Micro SD for Edge Storage...

Hi! I think you misread what I wrote. scp is secure copy. It is a UNIX/Linux command. When I wrote "1G scp's", that meant I was using "scp" to copy 1G sized files. As I wrote (and I agree with you), the radios at my short distance are sync'ing at 655 Mbps: On the garage: On the house...

Thank you everyone for the links, compiled data and the invaluable experience. I have some reading to do! :) I do like the idea of using an existing PC (rather than an NVR). btw, using variable rate, to me, seems like the real way to go! To help any future people, I have a wireless LAN...
