It’s super simple actually, just type “start .” without quotes. That will bring up the current directory in windows explorer. If you want to bring up another directory outside of the one you are in, just type “start C:\users\” as an example. If you want a network share: “start \\10.10.10.33\share\” and hit enter.
Easy 🙂
Simple! Go to start, and run. Type in netplwiz and hit OK. Click on “Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer”, it will prompt for your password, and click ok, and you are done. It shoudl auto log you in!
I purchased two of these guys for my two lil kiddos, as the second came, I did not want to pay $100+ for another camera in my Motorola baby cam setup.
What I like:
Picture quality is great
local recording on movement works great
360 degree angles are awesome
Night version works great
movement + audio alarms work great using Tinycam pro
I have a few issues:
The web app for moving the camera does not work well at all.
I cannot get two way working, even in the tinycam pro app.
I wish it had 5ghz, 2.4ghz is pretty saturated, and N just isn’t that fast.
I still prefer it over my Motorola baby monitor, much more versatile, and quality picture. I bought a Amazon Fire to use as a 24/7 baby cam, and it works great. It will vibrate on movement/noise.
I also have all traffic blocked going out to the internet, and coming in. I do have DNS and NTP protocols open to keep the time in sync on my firewall. Because of this though, I am also logging ANY traffic the FDT tries to reach out with, and so far they have not tried reaching out, it has been about 4 months too. I was slightly worried with all of the Chinese cameras that have been known to reach out and call home.
I installed pfSense 2.4.1, to replace my Asus AC68U as my router, and purchased an Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO for my wireless. So far so good, but I had one thing I REALLY wanted done with this new firewall, that my old one could not, and that was properly blocking all traffic going OUT, except NTP, and DNS to resolve those NTP entries. So my set up was as follows:
If you want me to get into each of the rules, let me know and I can. It works great, as I can see it allowing the NTP and DNS entries. This works best if your DNS server is your router/gateway. If it is not, you will have to substitute in what your DNS servers are. I am waiting for something to call home, so I can then report that to FDT, my camera manufacturer, and ask them WHY is it calling home?!
I had just installed a fresh copy of pfsense on my HP GEN8 Microserver, and noticed it would not like booting up, sometimes. So I ended up removing the USB SATA controller, and that resolved it. Why? I am not sure…I remember reading that someone else had a similar issue before as well.
I had ran this command:
esxcli software profile install -p ESXi-6.5.0-20171004001-standard -d https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODU
to upgrade to the latest version of 6.5 vmware ESXi and I got this message:
[Exception]
You attempted to install an image profile which would have resulted in the removal of VIBs [‘HPE_bootbank_hpe-cru_650.6.5.8.24-1.4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hponcfg_6.0.0.4.4-2.4.2494585’, ‘HPE_bootbank_scsi-hpvsa_5.5.0.102-1OEM.550.0.0.1331820’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hpe-esxi-fc-enablement_650.2.6.10-4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hptestevent_6.0.0.01-01.00.5.2494585’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hpe-ilo_650.10.0.1-24.4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_ssacli_2.65.7.0-6.5.0.4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hpbootcfg_6.0.0.02-02.00.6.2494585’, ‘HPE_bootbank_hpe-smx-provider_650.03.11.00.17-4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_amshelper_650.10.6.0-24.4240417’, ‘HPE_bootbank_conrep_6.0.0.01-02.00.1.2494585’].

If this is what you intended, please use the –ok-to-remove option to explicitly allow the removal.

I wanted to keep those VIBs because I know there were no upgrades for HP on them, so I ran an update command instead:
esxcli software profile install -p ESXi-6.5.0-20171004001-standard -d https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODU
I was running the upgrade on my HP microserver Gen 8 ESXi host, and it threw an error:
[root@esx1:~] esxcli software profile update -p ESXi-6.5.0-20171004001-standard -d https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODU

Please refer to the log file for more details.

I ended up having to install the locker tool first:
cd /tmp
wget http://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/PRODUCTION/main/esx/vmw/vib20/tools-light/VMware_locker_tools-light_6.5.0-0.23.5969300.vib
esxcli software vib install -f -v /tmp/VMware_locker_tools-light_6.5.0-0.23.5969300.vib
Then I ran the update, and it worked perfect!
Hi!
Sorry, been super swamped, haven’t posted a lot, if at all this year! I have been playing a lot of video games though, if you want to check out some of my highlights, I post on my youtube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/user/vivithemage64
I know most of my viewership comes from random issues being googled, and resolved here, so i’ll try getting back to that when I can!
So I got one of the new [easyazon_link identifier=”B01KB8RCL0″ locale=”US” tag=”vivithemage-20″ cart=”n”]Gigabyte P35X v6-PC4K4D[/easyazon_link] laptop from Gigabyte. I chose it because it was not gaming looking, which tended to have lots of colors, and weird angles. I also went to Microcenter and touched a few 1070GTX laptops first (not the P35X, as they do not stock them). They (Asus and MSI brands) all felt very cheap, plasticy, and hollow feeling. My wife also mentioned how plastic they felt, and cheap.
So going home a bit bummed I had wanted a P35X since v2, so I was glad they got some beefy power in it, to replace my desktop which has an i5 4690k, 970 GTX, 1TB Samsung SSD, and 16GB DDR3.
So at first glance here were my numbers:
DESKTOP:
Csgo – 250 on mirage – 300ish on average in dust2
BF1 – 60/50 medium settings
H1z1 – 70-80ish
Rocket league – 180-200
40-55 db on fan – barely audible imo as it sits under my desktop, but raised up.
OCCT – 320 FPS on laptop 310 FPS on desktop
OCCT – 79C on laptop and 50C on desktop
CSGO laptop – 76C – fan pretty loud like 200-250 fps
Rocket league – 86C – fan pretty lout at like 200-250 fps
H1Z1 laptop – 83C on gpu and cpu – fan pretty loud about 70-80fps
PCMark 2016 Vantage I got 37k on the laptop and 30k on my desktop.
Overall, I am impressed what this thing laptop can handle. One thing I wish Gigabyte did was send over an SSD with NVMe, not this Transcend Sata M.2. If anyone wants some specific benchmarks, let me know. The screen is gorgeous, 4k is awesome. I do not think I could ever go back to FHD/1080p!
