Thanks, glad it helped you.

If you wantch the second video you will see that I add significant bracing to the hole to cater for removing the stud.

Glad it helped

You are welcome!

Glad to help

The best thing to do is take the hob off and measure it with a piece of string

I ordered 3 thermocouple and got the 600mm ones, I just coiled up the excess. Working fine

Sounds like a plan 👍🏼

Glad it was helpful!

Glad you think so!

Glad to give the full picture :)

Thanjs. That is my channel. Show what it takes warts and all.

@@mr-jackI’d rather that than miss any details 😉👍

je t’en prie

It was www.4ourhouse.co.uk.

@@mr-jack thank you for replying. was it the Rangemaster Thermocouple / Fsd Probe : 600mm

Rangemaster Fsd Probe / Thermocouple : 350mm was the one I bought £29.35

I am afraid I am not familiar with the EA7500. I recommended you have a look on the relevant pages on the Open wrt website. Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback. Really glad it helped.

I have 4 of them and have not actively rebooted any. We have had a couple of power outages but thats over the past year. So very reliable.

@mr-jack great looks like a purchase is in order!, thanks for the quick response!

Snap. I had exactly the same :)

@@mr-jack I am liking the Linksys EA8300 but you must setup irqbalance and turn on Software flow offloadin & Packet steering. Otherwise it will only use one core.

If it's not connected to the electricity yet then the ignitor wouldn't be working.

Thank you for your reply at the moment I'm lighting it with cigarette lighter but the problem is when I release the knob flame goes off.

@@shaguftabegum7933 I just did a test and switched mine off. Then tried to light it with a lighter. The ring lit and stayed alight after I released the knob. I have to admit I didn't expect it to stay on. So your problem could be the thermocouple.

Glad to hear

@@mr-jack also on the ea9500 although then its better as a wired router and not wireless 😂

The SWITCH option is removed from the menu as part of the DSA upgrade to OpenWrt. You need to Follow this video(th-cam.com/video/47e8bDtTGFo/w-d-xo.html) to make a software switch

I am afraid I have no stats but would have thought melamine would have good wear characteristics. It is smooth and hard. If you check out other videos, some people have used thin sheets of aluminium.

I am sorry but I don't know. Lets hope @RevanceZeno reply's.

It's ok to install.but make sure you don't forget to install the advance reboot and change the kernel size.dont skip the tutorial

Hi. I was able to get a USB stick working. I didn't try a hard disk. Have you tried using a powered USB-SATA Hub as the router has very little power to give to USB devices. On a slightly different note did you install the MR8300 firmware on your device? The reason I ask is that on my first attempt I actually installed the MR8300 firmware on my EA8300 and it seemed to work ok but the USB and LED lights didn't work. So if you have installed the EA8300 software on your MR8300 that might be why.

The USB flash drives work but the hard drives don't.@@mr-jack

@@jbgrenouille2527 So it looks like it might be a power problem then if the interface is active. Have you tried a powered USB-SATA hub? I have used these in the past, they work well and are quite cheap, www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07JGT17B8/ref=emc_b_5_t

Thanks for the feedback. Can you put a leaf catcher higher up the roof to try to keep them out of channels. Having said that, regular inspection is probably a good thing as it helps catch things before they become a serious problem.

Hi James, go to the OpenWRT page for the EA8300 (openwrt.org/toh/linksys/ea8300) There is a link to download the original firmware from Linksys which you can then re-flash. Be warned you are on your own with this as I have not tried it.

You got me!😊 I once saw a guy at Hobby Craft with scissors in his belt. Always feel slightly self-conscious with them but needs must.......

I could virtualise some of the pi's onto a proxmox server, that nay come in a later video 😉. I would want to keep the pfsense firewall as a deducted physical device for security purposes and the backup server is located in a physically segregated building to protect against fire.

Good idea

I found this "The particulate filter regeneration fluid ensures that soot particles burn at a lower temperature, namely from 450°C. Even if the driving conditions are not optimal, this allows an effective regeneration of the particulate filter". I think it does the same thing as adblue but clearly in a different way as it lasts much longer.

@@mr-jack Oh I see now, thank you so much for this info. I’m looking into a C8 for my family so this should be something I need to look out for.

Glad it helped!

I am afraid I don't know, I didn't see any nationalisation information. However, I would think that you would be ok to try as you can always revert to the original image, on the alternate partition.

​@@mr-jackis it ok not to change the kernel and just stick to 5.10?or is it required to change it to 5.15 version

​@@mr-jackanother question.how did you change the default gateway?i just saw on a old post that if you change the gateway from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.3.1you can't access the device anymore.is this true?

Hi, if you want to use the new DSA configuration feature then you have to upgrade the kernel. If you are happy with the old way of configuring it then 5.10 is fine. Up to you, I decided I wanted to try the new way.

You can absolutely still access it if you change the gateway address. I change the network address and even the port in this video th-cam.com/video/47e8bDtTGFo/w-d-xo.html. the key thing is to get your computer to recognise that the router address has changed. Sometimes you can do it by simply unplugging and re-plugging the ethernet cable or on windows issue "ipconfig /renew" at the command prompt to get your computer to request a new IP address from the router

As a rule, I do try to use Raspbian as it is tailored for the Pi but in this case it just wasn't possible.

Thanks :). I did consider SSD's and would love to use them but they just aren't big enough at the kind of price I can afford. Currently on amazon it is just north of £400 for two 4TB SSD's, whereas two HDD's costs only £160. That is a lot of run-time if I convert that into Electricity.

@@mr-jack I see what you mean. I got a great deal on some 4 4TB enterprise HDD for under $40 each. They've been running for 3 years now. I couldn't do that with SSD's

Yes, In the video I fit 25mm Live and Neutral with 16mm earth/cpc.

@@mr-jack so it should be fine if my cpc is 25mm²?

@@IAmThe_RA I don't think so my CPC was only 16mm. 25mm cpc will not fit in the special tails grommet. There are 3 holes: 2 large ones which just fit the 25mmr live and neutral and a smaller one which just fits the 16mm CPC.

@@mr-jack i'm not from the Uk, we have a TT system here so my main 25mm² cpc will go to the DB from the back. I really like Hager DBs produced in England and plan to purchase one online. So my only concern is that if the 25mm² cpc can't fit in the Hager Earth bar.

@@IAmThe_RA Good luck :)

Thanks for watching
