I need to run an AP in my house and prefer not to drill a hole in the wall. Yes I know that's the easiest route but wanted to see if this is possible. Its my understanding that flat line ethernet is not best for POE runs. My idea is having the AP placed where I need it. Then run a flat ethernet cable no less than 10ft from the ap into a POE switch. Then run a regular cat6 cable going to my main switch.

Will this run? Any possibility that running the poe to my main switch cause any issues with my main switch.

AP ---- Flat Ether --- POE switch ----- cat6 to main switch

Question I’m looking for some additional rechargeable batteries and I have a brand that came with a charger and it’s been working great. I’m looking to buy some more batteries and was wondering if it’s safe to use alternate brand batteries with the charger I have? Or if I’m going with a different brand I need to get said brand charger? I just don’t want to cause a fire if using alternate batteries with different chargers.

I have a Gigabyte B650 C V2 AM5 motherboard and I have this RAM issue that im hoping to get some advice on.

Hardware.

RYZEN 9 7900X

16GB DDR 5 4800

Before doing anything I did a bios flash update to the latest bios version available for my ram. I also did a cmos clear after the update to return the board to factory defaults.

This board has 4 RAM slots and I initially installed 4 8Gb ddr5 dims to get a total of 32gb of ram. I am using mix sets so im fully aware that using different manufacturer sets can cause issues so I am keeping that in mind.

The issue is that when I had all four ram slots occupied I couldn't not post boot. I am aware of the ram training times and gave it a full half hour before rebooting and removing slots. So after getting stuck with moving the slots around I decided to install 2 of the same sets a time. Both sets seemed to work on A2 and B2, however when I attempt to use A1 and B1 with either set it doesn't boot on those specific slots.

I am using a new set that I purchased to rule out possibly of bad dims. The second set i did use was from another PC that was intel based but was using DDR5 sets. All dims are 8gb running at PC5 4800. I dont have an extra ryzen cpu to test or board so not sure which one it could be. I did have somewhat similar experience with my first intel build but it was a different issue. It would boot but it wasn't counting my ram correctly. Instead of 32GB it was only reporting 16gb of ram. So i RMA the board and same issue was still present. Then I RMA with intel and they confirmed it was a memory controller issue with the CPU and replaced it with a working one.

Guess the only way I can truly verify if I purchased another AM5 board and test both slots sets to see if I encounter the same issue. If it does happen then its might be the CPU itself.

Anyone have idea if its one or another and what would be the best action to take?
