which tip did you order? Flat type or pointy? Also what grade solder did you get?
It has both of them. Solder wire is probably 60/40.
@SaiyanGoku cool! Any website I can learn to use power tools and stuff. I really want to get into DIY since a young age but was discouraged a lot.
No idea about websites but I think there was a channel "Dad, how do I" which might have some tutorial available.

Imo these two videos are enough for most people





Most things will be learnt with experience though

This channel is great for tips and tricks

By power tools , you mean drills and power saw or something like solders, hot air solders stations?

Me & my house owner in Bengaluru have asked airtel multi times for a fibre line in our area since 2020, but alas. My house owner ended up getting ACT which is much more expensive, cost is the reason I didn't jump ship yet. Tried excitel but that had higher pings for gaming.

How is this Nokia router ?
I got Tejas Network router TJ2100N and so far I can say I am getting the best range in both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. Before that I used TP-Link Archer C6 and a Dlink prior to that with my ACT connection. And with the TP-Link the signal strength gets significantly lower when there is obstruction.

Same thing happened to me. I had to move to a society. I have the sales guy number of my area if you need.

Do you get ipv4 or ipv6 or both(open whatismyipaddress.com in browser)?

yes both ipv4 and ipv6 ips are visible On that site.

Yes all tools. Drills, sanders, power saw, welding torch and what not.

for that you need some instructables and youtube channels like hackady, hackster.io, great scott and many other diyers.

that nokia router is pretty good. It is a combination of router and modem. Its web console is also nice, tells everything from system temps to voice time etc. The signal strength is ok, it reaches two rooms that are far and separated by a wall.

I will upgrade to 100Mbps & my owner would have easily taken the 200Mbps plan, but alas, they are late. Hopefully, they do that for my area soon.

I am stuck with 40 mbps and Huawei router as airtel is saying my region doesn't support 100 mbps and over plans since 2018. If I leave airtel I'll have to go for jio coz other internet providers won't provide landline phone. That is the reason haven't switched to spectranet or act.

Congratulations. I didn't know it cost so much.

I have licenses. I can offer at a min price. I got them legally (no piracy) :smile: .

Its the same router they are giving with Tata sky broadband, best router I ever had. USB ports, gigabit ethernet, 5 ghz band, good range.. Only con was gpon software page was buggy af. The guy who made the no-ip ddns implementation fucked up a critical feature. Not sure if it applies to airtel firmware.

Yes, the gpon page is shit on it. Just changing a password was so laggy.

But at least it has more features than some of the cheap dlink offerings.

You sure this is the one for your case. Based on the description, with this you can give only one input which is (Firestick or STB) and take 4 out to different display where all are just the same screen (assuming if you're watching Star Movies using STB all the four displays will be playing Star Movies). Check again, if it's within return window you can do it if it's the wrong item.

Sorry if I wrongly understood the product description.
