Morning all, 20 going up to 37 and the sun is still in the trees.
Replaced the doorbell on detached garage/apt, easy with it now an LED.
Met my new boss, who is now not going to be my boss as I change groups in January.
She thought I was english at first since i have accents from everywhere I live and spend so much of my day on the phone with people in UK and eastern Europe. Surprised how many words I adopted from different places. Wish I knew more languages though.
I read some of the non-english comments and laugh as I do know quite a few curse words in other languages
Growing up between NY and MA left me with some strange pronunciations.
Tried to take pic of moon last night, on phone, without much luck.
Glad you got back ok Drew and Mostly
Be well

Can I pick your brain for a minute?
We have StarLink, I have the correct Ethernet adapter for it.
if I don’t particularly care about how many different networks I am broadcasting…
and since I have several old DSL routers that still have functioning WiFi capability…
can I run a hub or switch to the StarLink Ethernet port, then hook up the WiFi routers to the hub/switch, and increase my WiFi coverage around my property by mounting one on each exterior wall? Devices should switch networks reasonably seamlessly as long as they are all configured in each device, right?
Or is my proposed attempt at doing things on the cheap by recycling kludge doomed to fail?

After much research on your topic I opted for another Starlink router and linked it to the original router. Not sure if they will work outdoors but .....

You can. Some routers can be set to be an access point instead of a router , which keeps you on the same network. The problem with using them all as routers is each must be a different network.
I really like my deco mesh system. So far I have 3 units, they figure it all out, very easy to set up, one network everywhere.

Hassle.
You might not care about broadcasting but your end user devices (storage, PC, tabs, phones, printers) may.
Old tech, maybe mixture of protocols (speeds, throughput, channel limits, etc.)...
I'd go with a newer mesh system. Need some more coverage, go buy another unit and plug it in.

Good Morning ~ 39º going to 60º Brrr -
Seared and baked a pork loin wrapped in bacon last night, yummy.
Pork and eggs are the menu for breakfast ~
Been flatten out the neighbors field after the county Weed Abatement crew rutted it up real bad. Plan on doing about 1 hr at the end of the day until done. Stupid short days now makes it hard to get too much done. Hope everybody is well.

I don’t really care if I have different networks - I a, going for cheap
and recycling items already on my shelves (because I don’t throw stuff away. . .).

I ran mine that way for a good while, but got tired of messing with it. I also had trouble with the Starlink mesh unit. But it was the lack of functions in the Starlink router, like not being able to reserve static ip range, that made me put it in bypass mode and get the mesh.I don’t really care if I have different networks - I a, going for cheap

So it is doable, but a PITA.
