@scottalanmiller Good, because that's what I went with.
LOL, sorry, was on the phone.
No worries. My family is on me asking why Plex isn't available, so I just went with it.

LOL, can't live without that VM, apparently.
When it's bitter cold outside, and it's now dark at 5:00, they need their movies.

Why EXT4?
Is there something wrong using ext4 instead of xfs besides Red Hat/CentOS using it by default?
As with everything, reverse the question - is there something right about it? XFS is faster and more stable. What does EXT4 have going for it? EXT4 is not a bad filesystem, but "not bad" isn't a reason to choose a filesystem. Which one is best for your environment? I don't know any server environments where EXT4 is good enough to be considered - because it would have to be meaningfully better than XFS in some area for that to be useful.
Looks like I just need to read up on ext4 vs xfs.
@JaredBusch How is Strongarm treating you for home use? I am using OpenDNS right now for home (the free version) and have had zero issues so far.

Now this looks like a WIKI that I would actually use. I've been searching for one that has a good way to display code snippets. (like the way code is displayed here on ML) This looks like it does the trick.
I've not used it yet, but I've been looking for something just like this for a while. Hoping to deploy it soon.
Fingers crossed. I really want a better internal documentation tool. OneNote and SharePoint are getting too cluttered.
OMG I can't stand OneNote.
I used to like it. But as documentation grows, it quickly becomes cluttered.
I have a remote user, on our FreePBX system. They recently bought a new modem, and are no longer to make/receive calls from their remote phone. The only thing that changed, was the new modem. The model number is a Motorola MG7315.
Symptoms:
Troubleshooting steps so far:
Any ideas for further troubleshooting?
I'm still evaluating https://wiki.js.org/. I have it installed and setup, and I love the interface, but have not had a lot of time to really test it out in a production environment yet.
Wordpress is definitely a solid choice, especially with the right plugins.

We use WordPress, with this amazing theme/add-on!!! https://themeforest.net/item/woffice-intranetextranet-wordpress-theme/11671924
Wow, that looks really nice.
@scottalanmiller Thanks for documenting this. Going to install again tomorrow on either Cent or fedora
Follow up on this, the user went out and got a new modem. Immediately resolved the issue, so I was never able to test if STUN would have resolved it or not. I'll keep this in mind though for next time.

@fuznutz04 said in EdgeRouter "Smart" QoS issue:
The ER-Lite boxes have a "Smart" QoS wizard. The way I've always understood it, it works as follows:
You fill in the line speeds of the service you are actually paying for.
Example:
The above screenshot is from my home, so the speed in the boxes doesn't line up with the rest of the details here, it's just and example.
So if you pay for 100/10, that's what you put in the boxes. I do this at the office, at home, and other clients. However, I ran into a situation where using the Smart QoS wizard, actually really limits the DL speed.
I did a speed test with the QoS setting ON, and got the proper UL speed, but was limited to 50-60 DL speed. As soon as I removed QoS, I got the proper speed of 100 DL and 10 UL.
Has anyone experience this before on the Edge Routers? Perhaps @JaredBusch ?
This is normal and expected because traffic policies and the smart queue policies both force traffic to not be offloaded.
The CPU in the ERL cannot process traffic faster than ~60mbps without the offload functionality.
Well alright then. Simple explanation. I’ve never run into this, because we have such slow speeds around here. So this would be an example where I could upgrade to the next model. Perhaps the ER4? I haven’t read the spec sheets yet on them.
Correct using a different model is what is required to obtain better speeds in this situation.
The ERX will perform better because it has a better CPU than the ERL. But it has less memory which leads to other problems.
The ER4 is light years ahead of the ERL by comparison due to the newer CPU.
OK great. Looks like I'll need to start recommending these now. First, I want to get one for myself at my office. Did you manage to get your hands on one yet?

Soooooo many questions/concerns on this one.
@scottalanmiller said in Weird Network Errors on SIP Trunks, FreePBX:
ter two days of not working. From what we can tell.... four of our trunks were down because of a vendor-side congestion problem. So nothing we did changed anything. We just kept trying new things to no avail. But it just "started working" sometime this morn
Yikes. I hate those types of "resolutions." From the post tags, I assume this was VoicePulse?

It is certainly a problem with the

Good to go! Can't wait to start populating content in this to see how I really like it.
Just did this. Pi-Hole is amazing so far.

Other than smart aleck and flippant comments about running on old platforms, nope
I'm assuming you're talking about 2012 R2, and yes, that is on my list to upgrade.

Yep. I have to decide weather to upgrade or jump ship myself soon. Realized the Church I work part time at is still on 2012 R2. It's only being used as a file server right now, so it's probably jump ship.
Yep. I'll be doing a clean install as well when I'd ready. No way am I upgrading in place.
@psx_defector said in IIS Security setup:
That software works great. I used the "best practices" template, and re-scanned. Now I get a rating of A. Not A+. I'm assuming it is becuase of the weak cipher suites below in the results. I'm surprised they were not disabled when using the "best practices" template.
Instinctively, I just want to downvote this post, because I hate printers so much.
