New owner of Falcon A1. Seen a few post about the noisy air assist pump. But haven’t seen formal resolution.

When I turn on the unit, it makes a havoc for about 30 seconds, I feel air coming out but very noisy, like posted but a few other people. what’s the fix?

Gigabit 2.0 crappy wifi outside

Title should be GigaHub 2.0

This thing is supposed to triband… the thing is 20ft away with direct line of sight, beside the patio door. I get no signal. 15 feet away, full signal… in the house

We had Vidéotron before and their wifi hub was much better outside. I don’t really want to pay 5$ a month for their repeaters. What are my options?

Firmware 6.4.1.0-300……

Duplicates not identified. Recently switched to a new MacBook Air and going through my Photos.

So many pictures in jpeg and HEIC format. Duplicate search sees nothing. What am I doing wrong? This is all local to my laptop, not pictures in iCloud.

Water pressure. How to measure what pressure the water is coming into the house? We have a semi-detached unit, our neighbour has a much higher water pressure than us?

I wrote to the city to check the main valve outside but in the meantime, any way to measure the pressure without cutting a pipe? Anything else could be the issue?

Repairable?? It’s getting worse. Video to show issue with rotary selector on Creatista Plus.

I turn the selector only on one side, but the actual selection sometimes move right, sometimes left.

3 year old so out of warranty of course.

When to change HDs? I have DS220j with 2x 6TB since 2023.

Pretty much the question. We use the DS2000j for TimeCapsule backups for 2 laptops, my wife and mine. The backups do work, just did a restore to transfer to a new laptop. We don't use the DS220j for anything else.

Dashboard show the HD are getting full but no error reported. When should I change HDs? I currently have Western Digital Red NAS HDs at 6TB each.

Any additional recommendations for HDs?

Had found a discount with the golden age association. Chatted with 3 agents, all offer a deal and I do the sync with my association. Get somewhat blocked and I’m told I can do this in a store. I go there and told this cannot be done in store. The associate is nice and helpful, reads the exchanges and sums it up claiming miscommunication. In the end, the deal cannot be offered. I switched to Bell at half the price (35$).

I had also access for my tablet, so had to cancel this separately. When talking on the phone with the retention agent, she offers a deal at 30$. Too late, my decision is done.

Just got a call from another retention agent who mentions my 14 years with them, I politely say " I’ll clarify something … " and while mid sentence, he just hung up. So yeah f*ck you Telus.
