Cat8 is pointless with gigabit equipment as far as speed goes. Cat6 will do 10gig, you just had bad cables.

Abp is complete garbage. Use Ublock origin.

Using the firewall to force dns because the services were stupid enough to rely on dns to determine location. You would use a (usually paid) dns service hosted out of the wherever the content you want was and get access to region locked stuff like the US netflix library from abroad. This worked because vpns were being detected and rokus dns was hard coded so assumed to be trusted.

I don’t know if this still works because I no longer own anything Roku and Netflix’s service hasn’t been worth that kind of shenanigans for a long time. It likely doesn’t work anymore.

Edit: Unblock-US used to be such a service

One reason used to be to switch to a different region for Netflix, etc but I’m not sure if that still works, I haven’t had to use a Roku in a long time.

I agree. I disable transcoding and use direct play. Jellyfin is a multi device library for the files on my nas.

Just so you know that’s mostly a worse/feature locked jellyfin. Jellyfin was forked from emby as emby-unlocked when they started doing stupid shit in the name of monetization.

For multi device jellyfin or Plex(which is terrible now compared to before) is way better, sure you can make Kodi do it but it’s never been good at that

I have a multimedia server with jellyfin and even the dumbest clients can play off it some way.

There’s malware all over that site, you download from known good uploaders or roll the dice.

There is no such thing as a safe torrent site.

I don’t rely on it at all because it likes to omit things I assume it thinks I won’t like. Plenty of times I’ll see a new video from a subscribed creator on the home tab to head over to subscriptions where I can’t find it but see previous ones.

If it worked that would be great, instead I use third party apps to manage it and would just stop using YouTube if those tools were unavailable.

Fucking lol that is just a straight up wrong. You are not getting any discounts from either of these companies whatsoever. They will literally disconnect you before allowing a discount. That’s what competition is for and theres none of that here. They know you have basically nothing without them.

$100CAD for 60/6 copper which works fine but the price sucks. The only wired alternative is $70 for 3/0.3mbps DSL

Fuck Canadian ISPs and their government enablement.

It works on Firefox mobile
