  1. On this Linux computer now working normal and posting this; It never ends reporting, had to close the terminal. externet@externet-Presario-CQ57-Notebook-PC:~$ ping 192.168.100.1 PING 192.168.100.1 (192.168.100.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.42 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.16 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.27 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=1.24 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=1.19 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=1.22 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=7 ttl=64 time=1.17 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=8 ttl=64 time=1.20 ms ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ externet@externet-Presario-CQ57-Notebook-PC:~$ Request timeout for icmp_seq 103 Request: command not found externet@externet-Presario-CQ57-Notebook-PC:~$
  2. Thank you, Ghideon. Am using Ubuntu 18.04 at the computer on RJ45-1. I can open its terminal and operate it well. Not always interpret all it says, but I can use it. The new Chromebook on RJ45-2 is the one evading me from finding its terminal. Perhaps has to be downloaded/installed yet. A hanging question is if two USB-to-ethernet adapters in the same network cause conflict. (One on computer 1; one on Chromebook). As manufacturers trend is to eliminate optical drives, hard drives, replaceable memory, ethernet jacks in favor of all wifi/cloud/throwaway forcing the use of adapters...
  3. Thanks, studiot.. My 'smart' phone is never used to play on the internet, only used as telephone + whatsup with the telephony provider service only and no home wireless to it. Went to the store, bought another USB-to-ethernet adapter similar to the pictured one. Same "no internet" prompt. Will dig deeper into the misbehavior and get the sledge hammer ready...
  4. Thanks, studiot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You say you have nothing wifi equipped in your house. Are you quite sure? The gateway (modem) has its wireless feature disabled by the service provider by contract. Even if you have 'disabled' it on the Chromebook, won't it will still be live inside ? Its wifi and bluetooth are off by selected choice in network settings menu. Some modern televisions have internal wifi as well as Ethernet connections. Mine gets the programming from ethernet RJ45-3 ----->tuner*----->HDMI, old to have any network. Same with printers, scanners, doorbells and other auxiliary devices. My printer is still in its sealed carton, no others. Printers with wifi and ethernet are often a pain to get working on the right network. That will be pain for a future day. If you have such a printer is the chromebook trying to set itself to the printer's own local network and fighting itself if you want to use the router ? Printer is disabled at the Chromebook settings. Do you have a 'firestick' or other interface between tv and home network ? No firestick, * it is another wired animal : ----> https://www.ebay.com/itm/X96-Mini-TV-Box-Android-7-1-2-S905W-Quad-Core-WiFi-HD-2GB-16GB-4K-Media-Player/233493321077?hash=item365d495575:g:B0EAAOSwU2BeRD4-
  5. Poking, resetting, changing parameters, trying other servers, cycling power of all devices in different sequences... the Linux computer on Rj45-1 ended impaired too. No internet for a couple of days, unable to post. Interestingly, the internet television tuner on the RJ45-3 was always able to work fine. Removed the RJ-45-2 Ethernet-to-USB adapter below from the Chromebook and restored functionality on this, the Linux unit. Posting the progress. Seems the adapter is flaky or kaput. Worked fine just for a few days.
  6. Thanks for your patience. Will follow. Typing 94.229.79.58 responds as "is unreachable" on the Chromebook; 😪 and on the Linux machine am now; shows
  7. Cannot find the 'terminal' nor a 'console' in this one week new Chromebook, an unskilled with it. Am s l o w to remind your kindness. Will be back after follow suggestions above.
  8. Side question... DNS is like a telephone directory, where names are shown as their equivalent numbers; example scienceforum.net is 153.229.14.32 or something like that. And if the DNS is kaput, if I know and type instead of scienceforums.net that IP address "153.229.14.32" I should arrive to this site, right ? Sorry, am s l o w . I do not know how to find the 'numerical' IP address of devices or sites.😪 Thanks... I will now try the suggestions on last 2 posts.
  9. Thanks Ghideon. I can access the gateway 'reports' at 192.168.100.1 if that means anything. Typing https://8.8.8.8 at address responds as "is unreachable"
  10. Thanks MigL. I do not know what an antivirus is. Have not had such since 2005 when abandoned Windows.
  11. Thanks. Following Sensei suggestion will take longer for me to digest. Will put good effort to understand it, even no Windows here. At the moment, this computer is working normal interacting with scienceforums; the tuner is showing live RAI (Italia) broadcast news but the Chromebook complains about DNS probe.failed.
  12. Greetings. The flag bearer of computer idiots again. Get the DNS probe error in a Chromebook. Before was also in the Linux machine. Power cycling all several times allowed me to enter the internet to post this. There is nothing Windows in my home. There is nothing wireless in my home. Have three ethernet wired devices to the gateway (modem?): A Linux computer; a Chromebook computer, a tuner that receives internet television from the whole planet. Most of the time all works well, but something gets the 'period' and I cannot solve what cannot understand. Reading related articles on the web; they assume everyone uses Windows+Chrome+Wifi and do not apply for me to attempt the fix. Any idiot-proof guidance to cure the misbehavior will be appreciated.
  13. Hi. Picture a bunch of solar panels on a roof to generate 3KW electricity. The purpose, to heat a dwelling, nothing else. No connection to mains, no inverter to supply appliances nor lighting. Just heat. Powering a heater during the daylight hours, warming the dwelling plus heating up something that will release warmth at night time. A water reservoir works well absorbing/releasing heat, but needs piping implemented toward radiators like in some very old houses. Barrels of rocks heated by electric elements can warm air passing trough them to release warm air at nights into existing HVAC ducts. What if the rocks are replaced by iron scrap, like engine blocks in barrels ? What convenient dry material would better retain heat per volume ?
  14. Hi. News report it is coming with lunar rock samples and will land in Australia in few days... Also, Japanese probe heading back to earth with hopefully samples from meteorite on board.
  15. What are the requirements to receive the vaccine ? Do recipients need to not be infected or tested negative for the virus ? Do recipients need to not have antibodies for it ? Do recipients must be healthy or not hospitalized with other illnesses ? Is that depending on the vaccine manufacturer like each manufacturer having their rules ? Will a certificate be issued to the recipient as to allow travel ?
  16. Thanks for educating me. It smelled like it had to have a name. Then one single virion particle infecting a healthy person compared to a multitude of virions infecting another person. Repeating the previous post, then, Is the infection expected to be different in magnitude, requiering much less treatment, medications, and posing less death risks for the single virion exposure ? Or the single virion will self replicate/multiply to a certain count in order to take over the host ? If infection by one single virion is not lethal and can be treated/managed with much less fatality; and can be singled/separated (as by microscope) to inoculate a person, would that be a sort of vaccine ? Does the virion stops multiplying by some reason (like being a powerful enough force to kill now, no more needed🙄) in the infected person ?
  17. Good day to all... What is the proper word for a single 'cell', 'protein', 'virus', 'microbe', 'molecule', microorganism', 'nucleus', ... of the covid19 ? If one and only one single covid19 'protein' is placed in a healthy person; comparing the effects of someone else infected with hundreds or thousands from a 'massive sneeze' exposure. Is the infection expected to be different in magnitude, requiering much less treatment, medications, and posing less death risks for the single exposure ? Or the single virus 'protein' will self replicate/multiply to a certain count in order to take over the host ? If infection by one single virus count is not lethal and can be treated/managed with much less fatality; and can be singled/separated (as by microscope) to inoculate a person, would that be a sort of vaccine ? Does the virus stops multiplying by some reason (like being a powerful enough force to kill now, no more needed🙄) in the infected person ?
  18. How is the birth/creation of a virus ?
  19. Hi 13mh13. Let me know whenever you reach a tenth of the reputation points that CharonY has. Points given for a reason from knowledgeable respected members.
  20. Hi. Thanks. From unbagging the items brought from the supermarket/pharmacy last shopping day, as an example. And you were very cautious of going shopping without the phone -yes, sure-🥴
  21. You just washed your hands again, and you feel like a good person doing it. Immediately you grab the phone on one hand and the tv control on the other, to stay on top of the chats and news as the confinement is too boring. Those items, with all the hand prints and mouth sprays exactly as before washing your hands. What good did washing the hands if everyone has no gonads to live without a phone on your face day and night asking when will this illness chapter end ? Then starting to complain that you ran out of masks and you need to go to the supermarket. The stupid all-disposable habit does not allow to wash or disinfect or dip in acetone, alcohol, whatever the masks, but keep asking when will this illness chapter end ? 😒
  22. Greetings, hoping it is a good healthy day for all. Quarantine and isolations appear not reflecting the number of reported new cases. The isolation should work; The quarantine not; because quarantine is a truncated isolation and 'discounted' to fourteen instead of forty days (if any works). The next day after quarantine has elapsed, a person is in the exact risk situation as before day one, if not more as surrounding infected population will be more. If an entire country gets rid successfully of the disease; a single infected person anywhere else in the planet can start it all over again. What are you planning for the moment you get infected, what will be your actions ? Been a pleasure to mingle with you all at ScienceForums BC -before Corona-
  23. Good day again. A couple more... - What percentage of covir19 infections belongs to the age group of -say under ten years olds- ? if such is known. - Heard from a medical professional : "No need to test if you have influenza, you would hardly get Corona" Can someone explain ? That sent me way back to the years of Interferon...
  24. Good day to all. A couple more questions... Is it known if a patient that survives this new virus, remains immune to it or can contract it later again ? What happens to donor antibodies on a blood transfusion into the recipient patient ? Die, stay or start renewal/multiplication ?
  25. Thanks, Charon. Another stupid question... Assuming inventing the word "singlill" -or whatever you want- to refer to illnesses that are contracted only once; can persons who are cured from, or survive an "singlill" infection episode provide microbiologic basis or sample for a vaccine ? Like replication of chosen/picked antibodies by another host ?
