Have dumb thing I can't seem to figure out. Periodically (at least every hour), all new TCP connections fail. UDP works fine. ICMP works fine. Most of it is attached through a Mikrotik Routerboard and a handful of Meraki switches. I have no idea where to begin debugging this, but I'm unable to plug directly into the handoff due to cable length. The Mikrotik also can ping stuff while it's "down", but it's "down" for every connected device including itself (it can't pull packages to update, for example, but can ping/traceroute from the router console). traceroutes all work during this, and have no packet loss. Also odd: ssh for example stays connected if it's already connected, typing `uptime` works and gets a response, but any large responses like `ls -la` in a large folder will send 5-6 lines and then the ssh session drops.

H110Hawk posted:How does this resolve? If the Microtik cannot download a package to itself directly then I'm going to blame that. You should bring a laptop or something down to it so you can directly plug in and test. Something about its state table is being overwhelmed. (UDP and ICMP being stateless.) No firmware updates available? It might simply be failing - power brick, motherboard, flash memory, etc. Is it under warranty? Can you overnight a new one for testing? (This sounds like a corporate setup.) After a few minutes things start working again. It lasts a random amount of time each time. The same thing happened to an EdgeRouter, with the same characteristics

Rexxed posted:That sounds more like your modem than the router if it's happened to two routers. It could be bad noise on your lines. I know that I used to have almost yearly problems with comcast due to water getting into the taps on the poles and freezing and exposing them to the elements which would result in weird connection problems and signal loss in the spring. It almost always required a line technician to come out but you'd have to call a normal tech first who would then be able to contact a line tech. They seem to have improved things lately as I haven't had an issue in the last couple of years. This is FTTH and I have a single ethernet handoff. I do not have an ONT or whatever. Some days it doesn't happen at all, some days it happens hourly. I'm going to try to plug in a rpi on a battery bank for investigation to a port directly, but really hoping it's not their problem because there's basically zero tech visits due to covid.

Parsec/etc act as a giant video stream. RDP handles video fine if it's extremely low latency and high bandwidth, but doesn't seem to compress all that much. They are intended for two completely different use cases. Also: this is a D3D game - top is RDP, bottom is Parsec on the highest quality it can do - notice the hand/glove sharp lines completely disappear into a mess on the bottom:

Smashing Link posted:That is interesting. I am more of a Mac guy, trying to move into the Linux/VM realm, so not as familiar with RDP. Parsec does seem amazingly fast to me however. Something amusing is that if you play multiplayer (think MMO) games, Parsec, Teamviewer, etc will all generally be blocked by anticheat systems for attempting to inject keystrokes into the stream. They either render as a black window (uncapturable), no sound, and you can't type or click or do anything into them. Some anticheats kill any form of remote service. RDP is usually excluded from all of this.

I am "semi-rural" outside of Seattle and pay an insane $150/month for 300/15 with unlimited data and am none too happy. It functions and I need it to make a living, but the price is insane for what I get. Is this a separate product from the 2000/2000 Comcast Fiber that's 2-5 year contract only?

Lifespan posted:Just had another interesting Comcast discussion. I pay $50 to get rid of my data cap. I was told they would waive my data cap completely if I rented a modem from them for $25. I guess I can continue to use my own modem and just keep theirs in the box, but what is their angle with that? https://billfixers.com/blog/comcast-is-charging-some-customers-35-to-own-their-own-modem quote:The huge disconnect in that pricing means customers who have already gone out and purchased perfectly good modems now have to rent a completely superfluous modem they don’t want. The alternative is to spend an extra $35 a month extra just to use their own modem. This is something we’re now hearing about from Comcast customers who aren’t sure what to do. On top of that, there are considerable downsides to renting a modem.

I am curious if they will enforce your use of their modem (because it phones home, runs their firmware, and is remote-controlled, wifi password set remotely etc too) and surcharge you heavily if you rent it and toss it in the closet.

stevewm posted:I think a lot of this is because a large portion of Facebook access is done over cellular networks. All the cellular carriers natively implemented IPv6 during their 4G buildouts. I'm pretty sure v6 support was a requirement of the various 4G standards... I think the UDP part (HTTP/3 or QUIC) is also because of Chrome or native app on mobile devices, since it's significantly faster on high latency/mobile devices than normal TCP-based HTTPS with handshaking and all. For whatever reason, my ATT hotspot doesn't give IPv6 addrs anyway (still).

My nvidia shield can't connect to several 5ghz bands, seemingly mostly the upper ones. It sees it, it just hard fails when connecting with no particular error message. The Meraki did band steering or otherwise dynamically changed bands too, so it would drift in and out of connectivity at random.

probably in the 300-400 range - i have a few meraki items that are about to go unlicenced at the end of the year and i figure i could replace some things since the licence fee is way out of my not-enterprise budget. the bgp part is partially for homelabbing/learning in a not-lab environment, and i have very strict prefix filters to not leak routes anyway that take priority. re: nat - yeah i know. i host stuff for friends, back up my colos/side projects, run a couple of gameservers from the bedroom closet.

I'd avoid them as much as possible, they almost certainly don't use this for balancing, but explicitly for user tracking. archive.whatever also returns fake clones of the Cloudflare error and captcha pages (ripped 1:1), they also attempt to tie your resolver back to you and other sorts of creepiness

I don't think I have ever seen a good powerline adapter. Moca 2.5 maybe. But I have never once seen powerline be decent. Are you also sure you're plugging it directly into the wall on the same circuit? No UPS, no power strips, no surge suppressors, etc allowed.

fletcher posted:With Unifi how do I make sure somebody can't unplug one of my devices and plug in their own to get on the LAN? I thought I could use the MAC address filter set at the port level, but when I added the MAC address of the access point plugged into that port, it seemed like it blocks all the traffic coming from all the different MAC addresses connected to that AP. Isn't this logical, though? If you want port security, you want the ability to block someone from plugging in whatever they want into that port => you have to selectively allow every single device you have. That includes anything bridging onto the network, AP or switch. What is the point if you allow a switch through as a whole and someone just unplugs one of your things on the switch and plugs in their own?
