[00:03:01] <steerpike> not working.. rkdavis: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r19664935-Unlock-JTAG-PAP2-V2~start=20
[00:03:05] <steerpike> 5th post.. made by rclink
[00:03:38] <rkdavis> ugh
[00:03:51] <steerpike> "3. I can't remember if the single network port was treated as a WAN or LAN, but I had to poke a hole in the iptables firewall to allow me to get to the port 80 internal web pages. Once I did this, I could manage the unit from the web interface."
[00:05:00] <rkdavis> ok so we need to sit down and work through this logically
[00:06:55] <steerpike> this is insane
[00:07:03] <rkdavis> yup
[00:08:13] <steerpike> argh!
[00:08:29] <steerpike> nope, 192.168.2.1 isn't the pap -_-
[00:08:43] <steerpike> it's my dsl modem i bet
[00:08:49] <steerpike> it's in bridge mode
[00:09:05] <rkdavis> ok
[00:09:06] <steerpike> because i disconnected the pap, and it still showed up in scan
[00:09:20] <steerpike> so.. i guess we can conclude it's officially been bricked
[00:09:24] <steerpike> no more chasing shadows
[00:09:45] <rkdavis> for the timebeing
[00:10:51] <rkdavis> i've only ever had one device really bricked
[00:11:05] <rkdavis> so normally able to unbrick eventually
[00:12:51] <rkdavis> i find it strange though thatthere were no warnings in the patcher post
[00:14:19] <rkdavis> oh well getting late -- time for bed for me i think :) i need my beauty sleep -- about 20 years worth
[00:14:33] <steerpike> alright man, thanks for your time :)
[00:14:41] <rkdavis> no worries sorry about the bricking
[00:14:48] <rkdavis> we'll get it sussed though
[00:14:57] <rkdavis> night all
[00:15:36] <steerpike> oh well, only $20 :(

[20:07:58] <rkdavis> :)
[20:08:05] <steerpike> last unlocked unit from the same person went up to $10
[20:08:09] <rkdavis> :(
[20:08:42] <rkdavis> i have to venture outside tomorrow :(
[20:08:47] <steerpike> :\
[20:09:15] <rkdavis> wife is pta alumni parent and ex-pta president and she organised a craft fair so i have to help setup
[20:09:22] <steerpike> ah
[20:09:53] <rkdavis> i'm thinking i could sprain my ankle tonight or maybe /catch/ the flu
[20:09:58] <steerpike> hehe
[20:12:37] <g1powermac_PB> heh
[20:12:42] <g1powermac_PB> hey steerpike
[20:12:46] <steerpike> hey g1 :)
[20:13:15] <g1powermac_PB> rkdavis: I can make you some food that would prolly make you sick, especially if you've never eaten it before ;-)
[20:13:42] <rkdavis> i've eaten haggis nothing can make me sick
[20:13:45] <rkdavis> :)
[20:13:46] * g1powermac_PB is a vegan, and most of the food I eat can really make someone not use to this kind of diet quite sick :-)
[20:13:54] <g1powermac_PB> rkdavis: try super high fiber diet without slowly adding the high fiber foods ;-)
[20:14:09] <rkdavis> i'm on a restricted diet not that i followit
[20:14:16] <rkdavis> high fibre, high fat high protein
[20:14:21] <steerpike> oi, the makefile for oe is still using monotone?
[20:14:26] <g1powermac_PB> *blink* thats umm, high everything
[20:14:31] <rkdavis> got a philisophical question for you
[20:14:46] <g1powermac_PB> for me?
[20:14:49] <rkdavis> does using half and half rather than milk with cheerios make it colesterol neutral?
[20:15:00] <g1powermac_PB> heh, not really
[20:17:12] <g1powermac_PB> all animal products contain dietary cholesterol, however that really doesn't effect your cholesterol levels
[20:17:24] <g1powermac_PB> its the animal protein combined with the fat that does
[20:17:34] <rkdavis> try telling my wife she keeps buying me fat free half and half -- why bother
[20:17:45] <g1powermac_PB> yea, the fat part isn't as big a problem as the animal protein part
[20:17:51] <rkdavis> porridge make with half and half with heavy cream over it is good too
[20:17:52] <g1powermac_PB> check out the book, "The China Study"
[20:18:01] <g1powermac_PB> its what made me switch to being a vegan
[20:18:16] <rkdavis> and what about the poor innocent vegetables? don't they have feelings too? :)
[20:18:18] * g1powermac_PB is not eating only animal products because I have a thing for animals. . .its purely a health thing
[20:18:24] <rkdavis> i just love fat
[20:18:32] <g1powermac_PB> err, s/animal/plant
[20:18:37] <rkdavis> figured :)
[20:18:51] <g1powermac_PB> heh, yea, I had a thing for fried foods and starch. . .a bit too much
[20:18:57] <g1powermac_PB> was 90 lb heavier then
[20:19:12] <rkdavis> i had some major health problems the last two years and multiple sergeries 15 in 17 months so i have a strange diet
[20:19:19] <g1powermac_PB> a year and a half later, I lost the weight and now finally starting to feel better after battling with stupid gallstones
[20:19:30] <rkdavis> i'm back to 220 after bropping to 80
[20:19:39] <rkdavis> so i'm on the money again
[20:19:45] <g1powermac_PB> btw, don't lose a ton of weight in a really short time
[20:19:54] <rkdavis> i was npo in the hospital for 4 months and 3 months on a feeding tube
[20:22:03] <g1powermac_PB> causes gallstones. . .which are nasty
[20:22:08] <rkdavis> yup
[20:22:22] <g1powermac_PB> had gallbladder surgery about a month and a half ago
[20:22:50] <rkdavis> mine was taken while they were looking for the cause of my ulcers, pancretitus, gastritus and appendicitus
[20:22:57] <g1powermac_PB> ahh
[20:23:05] <g1powermac_PB> fun stuff
[20:23:26] <rkdavis> after multiple surgeries they ran my bowels and found a meckels which is effectivly a second stomach
[20:23:34] <g1powermac_PB> oh
[20:23:37] <steerpike> oh, is wpa known to work on OE?
[20:23:44] <steerpike> wpa1/2?
[20:24:00] <g1powermac_PB> GI problems are really not fun
[20:24:07] <rkdavis> then i had to have 5 surgeries to fix the hernia they gave me dialiberatly as i had no abdominal wall :) got 10 grands worth of sheep bits in me holding me all to gether
[20:24:11] <g1powermac_PB> besides the gallstones, I've suffered with IBS all my life
[20:24:16] <rkdavis> i was healthy pretty much
[20:24:17] <g1powermac_PB> though after switching to the vegan diet, it has gotten alot better
[20:24:20] <steerpike> crikey
[20:24:26] <rkdavis> few kiddy things then nothing other than sciatica since i was 20
[20:24:42] <rkdavis> then on my 41st birthday i ended up in hospital with a gangrenous appendix and all down hill from then
[20:24:43] <g1powermac_PB> besides the GI stuff, I've also dealt with some heart issues
[20:24:59] <rkdavis> that can be nasty too
[20:26:35] <g1powermac_PB> went to the hospital about 9 months ago for palpitations. . .found out i got a heart murmur and a slow heart rate
[20:26:43] <g1powermac_PB> which complicated the whole gallbladder surgery a few months later
[20:26:47] <rkdavis> yup
[20:26:57] <rkdavis> did your hospital at least have wifi?
[20:27:01] <rkdavis> mine didn't
[20:27:08] <g1powermac_PB> cause pulling on the gallbladder can activate the parasympathetic nervous system causing my heart rate to slow even further
[20:27:12] <rkdavis> yup
[20:27:15] <g1powermac_PB> yup, though I didn't stay long
[20:27:24] <g1powermac_PB> in and out within a few hours :>
[20:27:30] <rkdavis> i went from july to november no computer no email no nothing
[20:27:30] <g1powermac_PB> dang hospitals
[20:27:40] <g1powermac_PB> I could barely walk and they through me out
[20:27:51] <rkdavis> i wanted to leave and they wouldn't let me
[20:27:59] <rkdavis> mompls
[20:28:09] <g1powermac_PB> I was in too much pain, i didn't want to move
[20:28:41] <g1powermac_PB> laproscopic surgery is all well and great so you don't have a large incision, but man, the CO2 they pump you up with so they can see inside you hurts worse than the surgery itself
[20:29:06] <g1powermac_PB> when I first woke up, it felt like someone shot me in the shoulder
[20:29:35] <g1powermac_PB> the incisions hurt less than the stupid gas bubbles
[20:29:50] <g1powermac_PB> took a week for them to finally dissolve too. . .not a fun week
[20:31:36] <g1powermac_PB> (oh yea, I'm only 22 years old)
[20:31:52] <rkdavis> 43 here
[20:32:26] <rkdavis> i had some tests before one of my surgeries so was constipapted and on morphine so even worse
[20:32:34] <g1powermac_PB> fun
[20:32:38] <rkdavis> they won't let you go from the hospital after bowel surgery until you goto the bathroom
[20:32:42] <rkdavis> 8 days it too
[20:32:47] <rkdavis> s/too/took
[20:32:47] <g1powermac_PB> I'm happy the pain meds they gave me really didn't mess up my GI tract
[20:33:06] <rkdavis> i am alergic to dilaudid and morphone really doesn't do much for me
[20:33:14] <rkdavis> but they pump you full of it anyway
[20:33:27] <g1powermac_PB> not sure what they gave me via the IV, but the pills were vicodin
[20:33:53] <rkdavis> did you get the patch painkiller -- that's a good one and the wife swears by vicodin :)
[20:34:03] <g1powermac_PB> now the stuff they gave me when I went to the ER for the gallstone attack, man that stuff was strong
[20:34:08] <rkdavis> if you get offered dilaudid though say yes it's great stuff
[20:34:17] <rkdavis> synthetic opiate in alsohol
[20:34:24] <g1powermac_PB> nope, never had a patch painkiller
[20:34:30] <g1powermac_PB> just pills and IV stuff
[20:34:44] <g1powermac_PB> I wonder if thats the stuff they gave me at the ER
[20:34:56] <rkdavis> ok enough about medical woes steer is feeling left out :)
[20:35:01] <g1powermac_PB> man, it was strong, though it still didn't get rid of all the pain of the gallbadder attack
[20:36:56] <rkdavis> probably dilaudid then, did it work almost instatly and make you nose itchy?
[20:37:19] * g1powermac_PB still shivers at the thought of the pain from gallstone attack, my entire abdomen hurt beyond anything I've ever felt
[20:37:27] <rkdavis> mompls kid wants to use the lappy
[20:37:32] <g1powermac_PB> it was pretty instant, though I don't remember an itchy nose
[20:38:08] <g1powermac_PB> I do remember an odd taste, though that could have been from the anti-vomitting drug
[20:54:49] <rkdavis> yup regulin the anti nausia stuff
