T4U USB working 2x faster than Fenvi T919 on Catalina - Ideas?

$

Hi,

Lately I have been using a TP Link T4U USB card for my internet connection, while waiting for delivery of a Fenvi t919. I received the Fenvi today and in my Catalina setup I compared speeds within a minute of one another. Both connecting to the faster 5 GHz network. I did this a couple times. The results are always the same - the t4U is about twice as fast on download and upload, as attachment shows. When running test with T4U I have strong signal (one green bar shy of max signal).

Hello,
I have been trying to install MacOS Mojave on an Asus vivobook x512fa ej550t and I am not able to get to the installer. I have used the vanilla method of getting MacOS onto the usb installer. When I put the -v boot flag the code stops at "VoodooPS2Mouse:Version 1.9.2 starting on OS X Darwin 18.7".
I have attached the EFI with all the files that I used.
Thanks.

I am building a discord bot and I’m not able to start it, I did node ./src/bot.js . I’m running Ubuntu. Should I try and reinstall npm, node.js, discord.js, etc. under sudo?

Last September I found the Beelink U57 Mini PC on Amazon at a fair price and purchased one for my collection.

This is the system driving a Dell 24” display at 1920x1200 and in the background it is playing a video on the Samsung 55” HDTV. Audio over HDMI works as does Audio to the local 3.5mm jack.

I saw the BeeLink U57 mini-computer on Amazon and was amazed at the feature set for the price. I certainly don’t need this computer but in the end I could not resist.

I am currently using this system as a gaming PC with a Gigabyte RTX 2070 Super (that I know won’t work for a hackintosh build). However, I’m planning on running macOS on a separate SSD of course through the GT 710. Both GPU’s will therefore be in the system.

Can I get this to work?

Big Sur on ASUS ROG Strix Z490-I Gaming MB advise request

Hi
I'm thinking about building a customac mini config with Big Sur as OS.

ASUS ROG Strix Z490-I Gaming and Core i3-10100.
Doubting if I will install 32 or 64 GB of Ram. No extra video card.
Question is, can I install a SSD on the m.2 slot on this motherboard as a system disk?
Should i also install a fan on top of the CPU?
Main use will be some programming, office work and occasionally some photo editing jobs.

Have already some experience with a Customac as you can see in my profile.

The New Beginner's Guide to USB Port Configuration

Pre-amble

When I originally wrote the Beginner's Guide to Creating a Custom USB SSDT the idea was to demystify and simplify the process of configuring all those USB ports our PC motherboards come with, so that they worked properly under macOS. The main sticking-point for many builders was the arbitrary 15-port limit Apple has imposed. We have to accept this, but still make best use of the ports we have which often involves 'losing' a few from the ones that are present, to keep...

Ubuntu Linux entry missing in OpenCore 0.7.0 menu in a Multiboot System with separate drives

Hi All,
in order to install macOS Big Sur in a dedicated APFS volume on my multiboot system (WIN-macOS-Linux) on separate drives (UEFI-Mode), it was necessary to switch from Clover to OpenCore. So I created the USB pendrive for Big Sur install using OpenCore 0.7.0. Before installing Big Sur, I wanted to test OpenCore on my current multiboot system and I realized that while the Windows 10 entry appears in the OpenCore menu (and it seems to boot fine), the Ubuntu Linux entry does not appear...
