re: Permanent LED light strings - best way to hang? - Korkstand
[quote]WLED is a very popular one and allows for both of these setups to act the same- you can reverse each segment and have the animations play each way. [/quote]Came here to post this.

re: What mesh system/brand are you using? - Korkstand
The UniFi Express specifically? I haven't set one up myself but I'd imagine it's pretty simple judging by how easy the setup is for the Dream Router and others. The hardest part will be configuring the AT&T gateway to turn off its wifi and routing and put it in passthrough mode. ...

re: Help me with tigerdroppings.com PROBLEM FIXED - Korkstand
Weird. Does it happen with any other sites? When you get here via google, copy the URL from the top bar and paste it here. Also open a new tab, paste it in there and press enter to see what happens. If you are using Safari, maybe try Chrome or Firefox and see if they behave the same. ...
