Many links about free modem/router choice and their configurations for the Dutch KPN internet/VoIP provider

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/02/19

I wrote this post because the xs4all->KPN transition was messy, especially on the VoIP side.

Emails and letters were incomplete lacking some essential information for manual configuration; 2nd line help desk did not return calls; pointers to where to find correct information were lacking.

This kind of is a catch all post with most of the links I found without much of their content so I can refer to them later when writing a more detailed post on how I did get VoIP to work.

So: for my link archive, almost all posts in Dutch.

Ookla speedtest CLI for Windows has some undocumented arguments to accept license and GDPR

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/10/11

I had speedtest-cli running on MacOS and various Linux machines, but not yet on Windows (see for instance my post Ubuntu: Fixing the myserious “Failed to stop apt-daily.timer: Connection timed out”).

[Wayback/Archive] Install and Test Internet Speed with Speedtest CLI Command Line – NEXTOFWINDOWS.COM reminded me there is a Speedtest CLI for Windows download at at [Wayback/Archive] Speedtest CLI: Internet speed test for the command line, but I am a an automation/scripting/devops person, so luckily there are also [Wayback/Archive] Chocolatey Software | Speedtest by Ookla (don’t get [Wayback/Archive] Ookla.Speedtest download, as that is the GUI version).

Both the Chocolatey and winget packages are named the same, so that is quite confusing. This is how I have set them apart:

Last week xs4all internet really has shut down and two long term “buddies” suddenly have a completely different life

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/04

For posterity these two tweets from xs4all unixbeheer dudes:

For me it is a strange feeling, but for Cor, Jan-Pieter and some others that also stayed until the very last it is even stranger: after so many years (or decades) at xs4all their life suddenly is very different.

I wish them well and hopefully be able to meet up every now and then.

KPN vernieuwt abonnementen voor vast en mobiel internet, tv en bellen – IT Pro – Nieuws – Tweakers

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/10/08

Voor mijn link archief, dit lijkt op de integratie van xs4all:

KPN komt met nieuwe abonnementen met de naam Hussel. Onder die naam zijn zowel vast en mobiel internet als bellen en tv beschikbaar. Ook zijn er losse mobiele abonnementen. Onbeperkte mobiele data is alleen mogelijk in combinatie met vast internet.

Bye, bye ADSL…

Posted by jpluimers on 2016/12/27

As I got rid of some final hard coded IPv4 stuff, earlier this month I said good-bye to Ziggo cable internet.

Today, the xs4all ADSL line finally got disconnected as well:

My old trusty Fritz!Box 7340 showing ADSL got disconnected for good on 20161217

Which means that the years of running an xs4all DSL connection over mxStream, KPN FAST ADSL and xs4all ONLY are over. Oh the days:
