lotuspsychjeim usually happy with linksys stuff09:38
lotuspsychjeducasse: is there a firmwar upgrade for your device?09:40
ducasselotuspsychje: i'm on the latest stable. things like graphing is only implemented in winbox, not in the webui. thinking of setting up mrtg or munin to get that elsewhere.09:41
lotuspsychjeyeah, wine is the last resort :p09:42
lotuspsychjeducasse: by the way, i found out about the electro technical degree09:43
ducassei don't like to rely on it, so i'm trying to get wverything set up so i can do without. it's the only thing i need it for...09:43
ducasseoh, what's the deal?09:43
lotuspsychjeducasse: the certificate is real and needed, but there's a backdoor for computers lower then 2kilowatt it doesnt need to be proven09:44
