  1. The nokia routers won't bridge. The older huawei ones could. This is something that airtel is actively blocking for some reason.

     

    You don't need to bridge to use your own router. Just use the airtel router as a gateway, turn off its wifi, and then connect it to the wan port of your own router.

     

    I use my ubiquiti setup with ACT and airtel with ACT directly connected and Airtel connected via their nokia router.

  2. Downloading games available via various options is a mess on PSN. I use my PS5 and my son uses PS4. Various games show up as available to download for different platforms in different ways on different places and other times they keep asking for payment :| Just had this with miles morales which shows up as paid when i try to download it from PS store on PS4 but works on app or web. For PS5, i could download it directly from PS store.

    Kazakhstan crisis: Bitcoin price slumps as nationwide Internet blackout hits crypto miners

    Bitcoin network power slumps as Kazakhstan crackdown hits crypto miners

    Don't go by these articles. There is no clear correlation between btc network hash rate and price. It's just sentiment and speculation.

    I cannot fathom why you hate Hyderabad so much. I have lived in Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore and would rank Hyderabad as my most favorite. Not sure why you complain about people there as well. I made some good friends during my stay there.

     

    Good infra, decent rent for fairly large houses, laid back and calm life. Food is good, but the variety is nowhere near Bangalore. Atleast I can drive to any place I want without having to worry about being stuck in traffic or my car launching off the road due to speedbreakers

    Same. I'd take Hyderabad any day over Delhi/Gurgaon/Bangalore.

    So, for the curious souls, this was resolved today. Took about 15 emails back and forth, and a couple of phone conversations with them but they refunded the whole amount. 

    Also told me that they took down the listing from their site since this happened and that Sony is also being called upon to help with this investigation. Not sure how much of it is true - may be a way to pacify us that Amazon's doing something.

     

    This was a big headache tbh since the amount was no joke. I am thankful though that Amazon processed the refund. 

    They may be calling Sony because consoles can be blocked by manufacturer. This has been done in the past for Xbox one/PS4 consoles. So at the very least, Sony will block the console from logging in online, and may also be able to brick it remotely.

    where did you buy it from? And cost? And why didn’t you go for oled model or switch lite?

    I got it from HK via my brother who lives there. It was bought a few months ago before OLED model was announced, as he was planning to come here but then flights got stopped. He came here yesterday. And not switch lite, because I've heard about the joycon drift issues, so it'd be good to have the ability to replace the joycons.

     

    Cost was MRP in HK, don't know exactly but I think it's pretty close to USD retail price.
