Re: Intel Adapter User Guide for Intel® Ethernet Adapters
There's a lot of mystical, random and just generally goofy stuff posted on the internet about what settings to change on your Ethernet hardware to get better performance, mostly from gamers. Well, here's the advice straight from the horse's mouth, Intel, for the great many of us who have Intel netw...

Re: New 7000/8000 Orion MKII Protocol 2 Firmware Topic
I am running a dedicated Intel Gigabit CT card for my 8000DLE with Thetis b6 and P2 2.0 pre8. I have had two lock-ups in over a week of operation and was going to try the two settings changes to the Intel card. I changed the RX buffer but do not see the IRQ Mitigation setting listed in Advanced tab...

Re: New 7000/8000 Orion MKII Protocol 2 Firmware Topic
Fyi....
Pre8 with 2.6.9 b6 running like a champ for three days now.
No seq errors running with RX1 and RX2.
CPU usage lowest ever at 4-6% with RX1
Nice job!

Re: 2.6.9
Cheers for comments :) Last couple of weeks have been hectic so not had much time to turn the radio on. I see that Rick has released pre8 so I must try that hopefully later today. Hope everyone had a good Christmas, I am still recovering from food overload :D 73 Richie. Richie... What is the URL fo...

I have added option to pick which one you want. Right click the cpu in status bar.
Also working on this at the mo, for some extra eye candy. Probably all released later tonight or tomorrow.

Thanks Richie!
great stuff ur doing!

Re: 2.6.9
quote="ramdor"]Hi Perry I had a quick look at the cpu% code and it is currently reporting total cpu% usage of the entire system, which is why we tend to use resmon or something similar to find out how much Thetis is actually taking. I have quickly changed it to reflect the process %cpu tha...

Re: 2.6.9
My report: pre4 is the best of the bunch on my 8000. In more detail: Pre2 worked but PS was unstable. Pre1 worked fine. But pre4 is definitely demonstrating superior PureSignal performance and just "feels" smoother overall. No seq errors at all with pre1 or pre4 unless I make the PC sweat...

Re: New 7000/8000 Orion MKII Protocol 2 Firmware Topic
Carl: does it work better or worse than pre1 or pre2? Which is best for you? And are you using a 7000 or 8000? Scott.. Running an 8000DLE. I can't say one is any better than another. Once it reaches the point of failing all of them fail again repeatedly after a short amount of time (seconds). Did t...

Re: 2.6.8
I agree, I have seen this alot in the past based on serial number. Try this one as I have seen this version be more stable with some 7000DLE's, Orion_MkII_Protocol_2_v2.0_pre1.rbf . If you need the firmware, send me an email and I'll send it to you. I did try both pre1 and pre2 a few weeks ago. Unl...

Re: 2.6.8
As much as I hate to, I must abandon P2 and 2.6.8. After running all iterations of the software and firmware, intermittent lockups persist with variations from complete freeze ups to what appears as half of the display going into a slow motion panafall with a distorted audio present. There is no tel...
Re: 2.6.8
Richie... After deselecting Network Watchdog Thetis ran perfectly, for extended periods, some unattended to test it, for three days! After trying the RF Delays noted above I shut down for the evening, but forgot to return the RF Delay setting value back to 30. Later that night I turned the radio ba...
Re: 2.6.8
Richie... Even with RF Delay set to 0 I still see the spike. The only way I have found to not see the spike, and this isn't a solution, is to deselect the "MIC" button before unkeying. Thx Carl try adding a bunch of RX delay, say 300ms, see if it vanishes. If you are seeing it after relea...

Re: 2.6.8
Richie... When unkeying mic I see what appears to be a momentary energy spike that peaks on the selected frequency and is the width of the panafall. Is there any correlation to this and what you just described? Is there a way to eliminate it? Very disconcerting to see. This is nothing new though. F...
Re: 2.6.8
Running the latest updates. Not sure if it is an issue? when keying TX (MOX or PTT) I get a very quick sort of spectrum flash / jump / peak? hard to explain. Might be just a setting. I'll try and video record what its doing. This is because drawing thread is now not blocked, and the data arrays for...
Re: 2.6.8
If you have network watchdog turned on (settings,general,hw) then the plug will be pulled (click power off on thetis) if there are no events on the listening network socket (ie no data) for 3 seconds. It is also possible that the function WSAWaitForMultipleEvents is failing outright, which would re...
Re: 2.6.8
Turned the radio off at dinner time. Later that night turned radio back on and after about an hour had four disconnects, two of which were within seconds of each other. It's like I hit the "Power" button. It locks up, the power button light turns off and the radio relay clicks, like a nor...
Re: 2.6.8
Re: the network. The Anan is on it's own subnet and direct to the computer. However, the Ethernet card IS a Realtek TP-Link Gigabit PCI Express card. But it works without issue with P1 and OpenHPSDR 3.6.9. Would you still recommend switching to an Intel card? honestly, I dont know, it is just inter...

Re: 2.6.8
Well today I have tried Thetis c5 with P2 v1.7, v1.8, v1.9 (which has been working fine until today), v2.0 pre-beta. None of them are working well enough to use for any length of time, let alone reliably. I'm beginning to think it may be the current Thetis c5 and not the firmware. Don't know what c...

Thanks Gary.
I'll give it a try before going back to P1, which I hate to need to do.
