    Dishwasher: Bosch vs Midea

    @xkcd0137 Did you end up purchasing the Midea dishwasher? How is it so far? The Midea model is available for ~15k after all discounts which makes it pretty worthy IMO. The LG model that I was looking at is 3x more.

    Interesting. Thanks for the details @ch@ts The price difference seems big though, Midea vs LG. After discounts can get the Midea for some 15k (after discounts, NCEMI trick) (Flipkart) and the LG maybe 45-48k. Is the LG worth almost 3x the price? I ended up ordering the Midea unit for 15.2k...

    Front loading or top loading washing machine?

    Yeah, from a pricing perspective, I felt this model had more discounts. I also preferred the compact unit due to the location constraints. This is in Bangalore (within the city), so I'd have expected a faster turn around time for installation. Not sure if the service center's jurisdictional...

    Is LG still the preferred option? Also, what is the difference between DFB424FP, DFB532FP and DFB512FP? The last two characters in the model code seem to indicate the colour. I tried the compare option on LG's website, but honestly, couldn't understand the difference. Another thing is, which...

    Linksys LN1301 - Group Buy from US

    I was previously using a TP-Link EAP-610 (ceiling mounted) and a EAP-615-Wall in my apartment, but was seeing lack of proper connectivity in one room. I switched to two of these Linksys units, wired backhaul, stock firmware, just as APs, and the coverage is much better. Getting the plan speed...

    Front loading or top loading washing machine?

    I got around the same numbers. Wrt to the depth, if we measure from the center, there is a part which protrudes inwards so the depth is bit less, but if we measure from a bit lower, it comes to 12 inches. LG installation was delayed, and only last night the technician visited, more than 48...

    Linksys LN1301 - Group Buy from US

    I am currently using these just as an AP, and I found the stock firmware pretty decent. The stock firmware has a bridge mode, which makes it easy to use it as an AP. I saw good performance with both wired and wireless backhaul. Thought will wait till OpenWRT is bit more stable and the changes...

    Front loading or top loading washing machine?

    I recently purchased the LG FHP1209Z5M from Amazon during the sale. This is the 9 kg variant with a 475 mm depth. I was preferring one with a lower depth due to location constraints. It just got delivered today, waiting for installation. I think I got a fair deal, after all discounts (instant...

    News iOS 18 brings Live Voicemail with Transcription to India

    Yeah, I've seen it only on Airtel, called something as Visual Voicemail. There are no additional fees, and I am not even sure what carrier feature is being used, cause it looks like the whole thing is done on the phone anyway. Basically its the same as that on IOS 18 (atleast from an end user...

    Bsnl compatible router with wifi and lan ports.

    Looks alright, only thing to confirm is whether you'd be able to change the GPON serial and other parameters easily. Otherwise you would need the LCO/BSNL to register the new ONT in the OLT.

    News iOS 18 brings Live Voicemail with Transcription to India

    It’s available on Airtel, my spouse’s phone has it enabled for a while now, currently on IOS 17. Not sure if it’s a postpaid only feature. The transcription feature is also available and shows as Carrier Voicemail. However, I couldn’t enable it on Jio, it always said the feature isn’t available...

    Bsnl compatible router with wifi and lan ports.

    @anmolbhard004 That's exactly my point, the compatibility is not as good as the Huawei unit. Airtel in my area uses a Tejas Networks OLT (TJNW). So I guess that's two now which the TP-Link does NOT support (Alcatel and Tejas Networks). I had reached out to this guy sometime ago...

    Bsnl compatible router with wifi and lan ports.

    The compatibility of the TP-Link isn’t that great. So with some OLTs it may not work. Whereas Huawei HG8120C has good compatibility, I’ve not come across a situation where it hasn’t worked. If available, get the Huawei HG8120C, there should be sellers on IndiaMart. I wouldn't say so...

    Android Phone/Tablet charging from same adapter?

    @dktechsavvy That’s interesting, which power adapter was it? Over the years, I’ve not seen any such issues.

    Android Phone/Tablet charging from same adapter?

    No it wouldn't damage the phone, the device and the charger always does a handshake before upgrading to a higher voltage. The supported voltage outputs seem slightly different for Samsung 25w vs Xiaomi 33w, so would need to check whether the fast charging works as expected. If the device and...

    News iOS 18 brings Live Voicemail with Transcription to India

    Wasn't this feature available earlier too on Airtel? However, on Jio it wasn't available earlier. I updated to IOS 18 and now I see the live voicemail option. The default voicemail message sounds very robotic, would need to set a custom message.

    Linksys LN1301 - Group Buy from US

    I’m guessing it’s cause Woot is a deal site and products maybe available only for a short duration. Perhaps if you push them to buy from Woot, might work. However Woot is very slow in shipping at least this product, it may not be delivered to the US address until mid October going by their...
