    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    Sorry it took so long to come back to you. Don't really know how to PM here, cannot see an option for that. Accessing the admin interface is the only real option as the configuration VF techs do per request is overriden every time a TR69 update is rolled out. Not willing to share personal info...

    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    in the context of this thread: It has been told here that if you ask VF they'll kindly remove dns proxy. Cannot confirm myself, didn't try. Setting a second router as a dmz host wont prevent dns proxying but will allow filtering update servers name resolution Setting a dns proxy on the local...

    Doesn't the router just let pass through IPv4-DNS requests sent from your wiiu? Or does it tamper/translate-to-ipv6 them? Those ISPs are out of their mind with stuff like this..

    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    Not in my previous experiences with Movistar/Vodafone/Orange. It always took forever to get past canned-answer-spiting service representatives to get anything done. That said, I have no reason to doubt @xabier. Maybe this particular request is one of the few level 1 support agents are empowered...

    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    hmm.. getting a tad out of topic here but.. I had Movistar until recently at a previous address and they're more open regarding configuration SIP credentials and such. Don't use a second router, that gives you double nat and few other benefits. There are templates for autoconfiguring openwrt for...

    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    This is one of those combined IPTV/VoIP/Internet services most operators are pushing over here. For Vodafone al userids, passwords, VLAN tags for the different services, etc. is considered secret and never shared with its customers. The router is configured via TR69 and that's it. Admittedly...

    Hacking WARNING: Vodafone customers in Spain might not be blocking updates

    UPDATE: At least for some of its customers' home routers Vodafone Spain is activating a non user modifiable setting which prevents specified DNS servers to take effect. The net effect in this situation is that just using Tubehax/Chncdcksn dns servers DOES NOT BLOCK SYSTEM UPDATES Solutions...

    I'm late for the bbq sauce discussion and I have opinions
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Sweet Baby Rays is like baseline for a decent/good bbq sauce, but nothing outright incredible

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Stubbs is a pretty damn good sauce that I think you'll find on most grocery shelves as I don't think it's regional
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    This shit though
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Best bbq sauce I've ever bought on a grocery store shelf
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    smokey flavor that reminds me of beef jerkey on top of a really rich kind of bbq sauce. Heat level that is a nice zing, not overwhelming, but it tingles all the way down your throat

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all should have free health, dental, vision care, and make the college kids pay for the schooling, f that college forgiveness plan our govt doing now, its really not fair for all others in the past that had to pay for they're schooling anyways (like me, with 2 kids I paid to send to college in the past)

    I think we should outlaw healthcare entirely because the fact that people can get healthcare today is unfair to those in the past that couldn't

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal!
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Although I still don't agree, medical debt is rarely a choice, whereas enrolling in university is certainly a choice

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Many of the same issues can be seen for the insanely predatory healthcare and health insurance system in the US

    It's important for society to be healthy and educated. If those things can't happen because all of the institutions that prop up those industries make it unattainable for all but a small portion of society, then your society is largely going to be disease ridden, dying, and uneducated in very short order.
