Mr Electrickery

Hi
I have tried searching for this and was confused by results. Not as sharp as I once was sorry.
I am wondering if a consensus has been reached re: a replacement fan for a U4.
Thanks in advance for any help with this

Mr Electrickery

Thank you MrQuade, wow there was more to that then I was expecting and I probably never would have figured that out on my own. For starters I was looking in the wrong place. Screenshot 2023-12-26 154440.png Not sure if inline attachment worked, but that is where i was looking. Screenshot 2023-12-26 ...

Mr Electrickery

Ok thanks for prompt reply. Please bear with me as communicating this way is difficult for me. I do have an external hard drive but Normally have it switched of but to test what you said I turned it on and tried to backup and got the same message or at least similar I now have an internal 8 TB SSD a...

Mr Electrickery

Hi,
I seem to be having trouble Backing up my u4's settings. I am getting an error when I try and response I am getting is gibberish to me.
I hope it means something to some body here. I will attach a screen shot of response I get.
Thanks in advance
Iain

Mr Electrickery

Hi, thanks for response. Do you have the external HDD connected to the U4's USB3 port or its USB2 port? Do the drives support USB3 or only USB3? If the USB connection is USB2 (if either end supports USB2 at best), the port cannot transfer faster than 53MB/s, and its actual throughput will probably b...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Well I have some good news although not a total win yet. I swapped cable to my room with the spare new one and now getting 30MB/s. I happened to check old post "maximum size of external hard drive on a U4" and there was new post asking about speed difference between internal and externa...

Mr Electrickery

1.png Hi Just to clarify a few things. I'm fairly confident that the speed was never at 10GB/s That clearly was a typo. As I have said before I have Parkinson's and typing has become rather tedious so I apologize for any typos that slip through. I stated right at the beginning that the speed change...

Mr Electrickery

Well at my end it looked like it was there twice
Take 2

Mr Electrickery

hi again, The Technicolour TGT789agv is a modem/router. It uses both the modem part and the router part when connected to a VDSL (or ADSL) line. The DSL connection plugs into the grey phone connector sized socket on the back of the modem. there is nothing plugged into grey connector, the DSL connect...

Mr Electrickery

Hi I am going to try using quotes for first time. Just to clarify. I assume your “Modem/hub/switch” is a modem/router that was supplied by iinet & there isn’t another switch involved. In other words the new 20m Ethernet cable plugs directly into the modem/router’s Ethernet ports & not into a...

Mr Electrickery

HI, Time for the latest chapter in the continuing saga that is my U4. After confirming that my U4 has no bent pins I remembered that I have a brand new V2 so I broke that out and tested the connection using that. Unfortunately same 10 GB/S. I think we can safely rule out the U4 end now Unless there ...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Dennis, Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. Thank you for your response. I just want to run some things by you and ever body.At the mode/switch end is where the broken clip was. we tried the new cable in in a couple of the ports other than the one it was plugged into. In my mind that rules ...

Mr Electrickery

Hi thanks for responses a fair bit of which went over my head. I will try to tackle this one step at a time. I Have a lap top and a PC but not to sure how go about using them. would it be possible for somebody to test the cables for me? I am in Brisbane but I would be prepared to post items Due to P...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Thanks for all the responses.

1. Unfortunately my flatmate threw out old cable.
2. We tried the cable in another port on the switch no go.
3. I have a laptop. Is there a way to test the cable at u4 end and at least rule out u4?

Thank you, I will deal with other suggestions in another post.

Mr Electrickery

Hi, I have a U4 connected via Ethernet to our iinet modem/hub and then to my PC. Pc is a late model and should be capable of 1GB/S, same with all the hardware. Ethernet cable is a cat 6 and is kind of the obvious source of problem as I will explain.I use filezilla to transfer file from U4 to PC 2 fi...

Mr Electrickery

could some body please explain to me how to make my external hard drive my main recording drive. Iam sure I have done it before but cant figure it out. Thank you in advance

Mr Electrickery

Hi Every Body,
I am wondering what the largest external Hard drive My U4 can take, I bought a 18 TB an d it wont let me Format it ,works fine on my PC, so doesnt seem to be a problem with it, Thanks
Ps i should have asked this question before bought it

Mr Electrickery

Thanks for detailed responses. Unfortunately between failing eyesight and a pretty bad tremor I doubt could perform surgery On my remote. I bought a second hand Harmony 650. Hope I just haven't bought same Problem.
Thanks every body
Iain

Mr Electrickery

Thanks Peter

Mr Electrickery

What is considered the best all round remote to replace u4 remote?
I have a Logitech Harmony remote (not sure what model) that has started to have problems presumably with dirt on some keys.
Also I have a V2 system that is unused in box. Could I use it and if so what is involved?

Thanks
Iain

Mr Electrickery

Thankyou every body for your inputs

Mr Electrickery

that was an 8 TB for just under $200

Mr Electrickery

Thank you for prompt reply Mr Quade, To be honest I was referring to the fact that U4 can not see it at all. I will check to see if it is spinning when new one arrives and I replace it. My gut feeling is that 5 TB in a 2.5 inch form factor is pushing it as you said. It was nearly full so I am wonder...

Mr Electrickery

Hi everybody,
I am wondering if anybody else has had this experience. I just had my my third Seagate 5tb installed in a u4 die on me and when I say dead I mean no sign of life at all. Has this happened to any body else and if so what remedy did you come up with?
thanks

Mr Electrickery

Thank you very much

Mr Electrickery

Hi, "My list did appear to be 1-9 (i.e. earliest first), even though it showed 9-1 (presumably as that is default). " I find the "timer" function of OpenWebIF to be inconsistent. It can say it is presenting the list 9 to 1 and actually present opposite1 to 9 as you say. Also I ca...

Mr Electrickery

Hi, When I look at my timer list on my computer using OpenWebIf it always defaults to descending order 9 to 1 rather than the ascending order 1 to 9 that makes more sense. I am constantly changing it back to 1 to 9. I have looked though settings in the hopes I can change this however I suspect you c...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Paul and others that helped, Thanks for all your help, I had trouble still getting it to go on Wi Fi so I decided to try ethernet and it was so much easier and much faster so I went with that. Then of course I was able to get Wi Fi to work and at the moment It seems I can select which adapter to ...

Mr Electrickery

Hi yes I meant 'Automatic configuration (DHCP)' setting for the adapter in the Network wizard. sorry I am having problems uploading photo so I will investigate.
Can you also tell me how you do the quotes from my text. I am sure I have seen it before but can not see it at the moment
cheers

Mr Electrickery

Thanks Paul, will check that, Just to be clear you mean unplug dongle and then reboot right. After which set up again. I am using the auto set method and when I test network I am getting red crosses in particular next to network connection.( see photo, sorry its so blurry I have an essential tremor)

Mr Electrickery

Hi Grumpy Geoff, There's a great deal of what you said I did not understand but Ill get to that later. My dongle I bought from Beyonwiz. It appears to be USB 2 and I had it plugged in front port and before I knew it was probably USB 2 I tried it on rear USB3 port which I couldn't get going and now I...

Mr Electrickery

Can anybody give me an idea of speeds I should be getting?

Mr Electrickery

what speeds do you get PRL? do you use FileZilla?

Mr Electrickery

Hi well I did make a mistake, It should have been Megs instead of Gigs. and the capitol B I got from FileZilla. see snipping tool paste
I am sorry if I made a mistake.

Mr Electrickery

Actually might be ok now. will keep you posted

Mr Electrickery

Hi, I am having problems transferring data from U4 to my PC over wireless network using FileZilla. I transfer 2 files at a time and until recently the combined speed would be at least 3GB/S, now its approx. 700 KB/s. to my knowledge nothing has changed except the addition of a Logitech 350 remote wh...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Guys,
Using site manager is working fine thanks for help

Mr Electrickery

Hi Everyone, just a small problem with FileZilla that I'm hoping that at least others are having as well. When I start FileZilla up I get a message that says " This Server does not support FTP over TLS" and at the bottom of the message box there is a check box that says " Always allow...

Mr Electrickery

Hi everybody, well I'm very pleased to report that I got the recording conflicts under control. Yes it is adding conflicts to disabled timers. So that is good news. So I seem to be in control of any conflicts which I'm quite happy about. Also I've been able to get Tuner C going. This turned out to b...

Mr Electrickery

Hi all, Just a short message to thank you for you response. Had some progress on the timing conflicts and was able to extend the time the conflicts are on screen and also changed setting to make conflict appear as disabled timers though at this point does not seem to be adding them to disabled timer...

Mr Electrickery

Hi Paul I was aware my post had been moved. what I was referring to was previous attempts to post in the test forum that were rejected for a reason that I still don't understand Topic disapproved: "Test Post" Forum: Test Forum Reason: The reported message does not fit into any other catego...

Mr Electrickery

well how did I go this time

Mr Electrickery

Hi All hoping you can help with the following. When autotimer is adding timers and there is a Conflict it flashes the conflict up on screen sometimes to quick to read them particularly when there is 2 or 3 conflicts. ( also 2 quick and without warning to screen shot ) I am wondering is there is a wa...

Mr Electrickery

Thanks Everybody for your help specially Paul for your detailed instructions for setting up WiFi. I have succeeded in getting WiFi going which gives me much more flexibility now. Would be better to have ethernet connected but that's not very practical unless I want cable running across the floor but...

Mr Electrickery

Hi, Thank you very much. It appears that 'Alternative numbering mode' was the problem. It was turned on and when turned of problem went away. I backed up my settings before doing a factory reset thereby backing up the problem I believe. Which explains why problem came back again after restore I thin...

Mr Electrickery

Hi I know I am in the wrong subject but my initial test posting was even rejected so I am nervous now. So if someone could advise me where to post about problems with my U4 also general questions about the operation of said box. Back to subject, as I said my channels are all out of order. for exampl...
