Home Wifi Question

Posted by NASA_ISS_Tiger on 5/11/25 at 7:44 pm
I have an ASUS GT-AX11000 Pro router. Due to my kid's juvenile delinquent actions we have to monitor/control his usage. So I made a separate 2.4Ghz virtual LAN for his use that I turn on/off as needed. Also on the 2.4 Ghz radio on that router is my IoT for all my Alexa/Echo controlled lights and things. Every time I update his settings (turn it on or off or set a time limit) and APPLY the changes, my IoT lights go crazy or lose connection.

I'd prefer to keep him on the 2.4 Ghz LAN as well as the IoT HAS to be on 2.4. I use the 5 Ghz for me and my wife. Is there any way to partition the 2.4 Ghz to keep the IoT on one side (it's already on a separate VLAN) and the kid access on another?

Thanks.

Degree in Math from Villanova.
From Chicago.
The only thing that works on Dallisgrass is MSMA and it takes multiple treatments...but MSMA is only for golf courses and banned for residential use (that's what has to be said, wink wink). Otherwise you have to deal with it by cutting it low and never letting it get to seed head and then attacking it with pre-emergent. Or you dig it up...but even that isn't 100% because of the stolons in the ground.
You sound like my sister.

Jennifer...is that you?
7.62x51-Standard NATO round aka .308 Winchester (pretty close but the pressures are different)
7.62x39 - Standard Soviet/Russian round used in AK47s and SKSs amongst others.

The diameter is the same, the length is different.

Soil Compaction

Posted by NASA_ISS_Tiger on 4/18/25 at 1:54 pm
In North Alabama. Tifway 419 grass. Got some dead areas that look like deadpan on a golf course. Just bare dirt. Soil seems packed and dry. Water seems to just run off and never really soaks in that area.

Plan on aerating next month and looking for other things to do. Should I add some organic matter to it like Black Kow to help loosen up the soil after I aerate it?

Even little wildcat tournaments are like that.

“One-third of our state has diabetes or is pre-diabetic,” Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) said in a joint press conference with USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins. “The current system actively encourages and subsidizes unhealthy, highly processed, and addictive products.” LINK


HELL YES. This is common sense right here. USDA should allow stuff like meat, vegetables and if they need to subsidize drinks, then do it with tea and coffee.
Damn...none at McNeese? Maybe McNeese's demographics have changed since I was there.

I do not get calling this a space mission. This is an amusement park ride where they will spend 11 minutes past the Karman Line,



100% correct. It's not a "mission". It's 100% PR stunt. Bezos needs to get out and do something more productive than just PR stunts.
Mother in law was in a similar situation. She was in debt to her eyeballs. There was no estate to be divided no secession done. When the bill collectors started calling, I told them to pound sand or I could fax them a death certificate. I wasn't liable for her debt. Her daughter nor her son was either. She was from La, but died in Alabama. She had already lost her house/land to hurricanes and bad insurance deals. She literally had nothing.

Yes but in order to watch SECN+ you have to have SECN through a “cable” provider.

SECN+ is included with your right to watch SECN from your provider.


I have SECN thru DirecTV

Oh. I watch ESPN + on my firestick so I've got that downloaded on the Firestick already...is SECN+ available like that?

Culturally and ethnically Egyptians are more like Palestinians than any surrounding country, plus the location is close to where they lived in Gaza. They are actually probably better off in Egypt rather than Gaza. Gaza will continue to be disputed lands and filled with war for decades to come.

Best way to watch SECN+?

Posted by NASA_ISS_Tiger on 3/26/25 at 7:29 am
Right now I'm relegated to watching SECN+ on my PC or tablet. Sure, I can cast it to my TV, but I was wondering if there was a better way? LG Smart TV doesn't have an app in their store, so that's out, Firestick doesn't have it available (that I can see...maybe it's somewhere else??)

Looking for ideas.
I've got all this tech and I can't seem to get one streaming channel to an 80" TV....that sucks.
That's just what the democrats need....


To ensure another Republican Victory! That's one democrat position I can get behind!

Thanks for the correction. I thought it was before I got married. Time sure flies.

My mom and dad went to that game. If I'm not mistaken Ben Rothlisberger was the QB for Miami of Ohio.

Since I'm from Sulphur and played DL there, it was awesome seeing a guy from my neck of the woods playing at LSU.

RIP Marc Boutte.
