Re: Getting wifi bitrate

Curiously, what I observe with the RTL8192EU is that after associating, that value starts at 1 and as transmissions are made, moves to 54 in increasing steps, and then stays there. I guess that corroborates your point about incorrect information being returned by the device. Unfortunately I don't have another wifi adapter to test with. Anyway, thanks for your help, I'll give it a rest now. -- Cheers, Björn
PF route-to and divert-packet
Hi Misc,
I’m trying to use policy based routing (route-to) with divert-packet feature.
I’m just using example code written at divert’s man page. (man divert)
I’ve two WAN interfaces which are pppoe0(default gw) and pppoe.
Those pf rules works below:
#
pass in log quick on vether10 inet proto udp from 10.10.10.52 to any port 53
pass in log quick on vether10 inet proto tcp from 10.10.10.52 to any port { 80
443 } route-to (pppoe1 (pppoe1))
pass out log quick on pppoe1 inet proto tcp from 10.10.10.52 to any nat-to
(pppoe1)
But when I add divert-packet into NAT lines as this:
pass out log quick on pppoe1 inet proto tcp from 10.10.10.52 to any
divert-packet port 700 nat-to (pppoe1)
It fails. What should I do for using route-to (+) divert-packet feature
together.
Please help. Thanks.
Re: Disable nVIDIA GPU?
Hi Andrea, Is the "Hybrid mode" set in your BIOS? That one should direct the Intel GPU to the built-in LCD. Is your problem that even despite this the GPU PCI device is still burning electricity? Can you detail the trick you did on Linux to disable the dedicated GPU there?

This is true for those laptops until Thunderbolt is supported and thus you can connect a supported PCIe GPU such as an AMDGPU via an external Thunderbolt-PCIe enclosure. How good the actual performance is would need to be checked then. It should be good considering it's 22gbps of full duplex PCIe data bandwidth, but needs to be tested.
