00:39:44 <mykeylynx> Hello There! I am running version Version Gnucash 5.4 on osX and AqBanking 6.5.4.0
00:39:44 <mykeylynx> I was wondering if online banking is working for USAA. I tried following in the wiki a few times now, but the aqbanking wizard does not allow me to click done, its greyed out after entering all info. I tried adding something to where it asks to select a bank, but nothing populates in the list. Anyone know if online banking is working? Thank you

12:20:00 <jralls> @tell mykeylynx See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/OFX_Direct_Connect_Bank_Settings#USAA Lately I've had to re-do the dance every time I want to download.
12:20:00 <gncbot> jralls: The operation succeeded.
12:28:41 <jralls> warlord, I'm getting a really slow download speed from code, only 24K/sec.
12:29:56 <warlord> v4 or v6
12:30:47 <jralls> Good question. It's via the browser so I'm not sure how to answer, but I'd guess v4.
12:31:31 <warlord> Do an mtr and see if you see packet loss?
12:31:35 <warlord> (and if so, where)?
12:35:38 <jralls> It shows 3 comcast hops at 40-60%, the ??? between coresite and you at 100%, and 20% at code. I guess the 100% is because that node doesn't respond to ICMP.
12:42:52 <jralls> Latency is 85ms, SD 4 to coresite and 151ms SD 8 to code.
12:50:06 <jralls> Results are pretty much the same for both 4 and 6.

13:14:46 <warlord> jralls, sorry for the delay.. Can you copy-and-paste the output? It /sounds/ like the issue might be at your end, at least while trying to reach coresite.
13:15:20 <warlord> Going outwards from me through coresite, I do not see any loss.
13:15:27 <warlord> So the loss is between you and coresite.
13:17:36 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v chf
13:17:49 <chf> Hi, from Germany traceroute works (latency > 100ms) for UDP/ICMP/TCP.
13:18:01 <chf> Ping results (v6):
13:18:10 <chf> 99 packets transmitted, 81 received, 18.1818% packet loss, time 102594ms
13:18:14 <chf> rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 152.316/177.298/195.168/8.419 ms
13:18:21 <chf> (to code)
13:19:01 <warlord> Interesting, chf -- I wonder where the loss is?
13:19:01 <chf> Loss might be caused locally.
13:19:22 <warlord> Ok
13:19:26 <chf> OLD network here.
13:19:48 <chf> Not collision-free half duplex.
13:20:14 <chf> I will re-test from the router directly.
13:20:25 <warlord> Like I said, I'm not seeing any loss here.. I'm seeing 30-40ms latency across from here to coresite, but 0% loss to 8.8.8.8
13:23:40 <chf> 33 pings from my router (v4) lossless 122 ms on average.
13:23:53 <warlord> I've left mtr up for a bit (both from my laptop and from code) and I see 0.4% loss from code to my router.
13:24:10 <warlord> But pretty much 0% out to 8.8.8.8 from both
13:24:23 <warlord> (after ~260 packets)
13:24:55 <warlord> This implies (to me) that my network is fine locally and up through coresite. I have no control over what happens beyond that.
13:25:13 <chf> I suspect the problem is somewhere between code and jralls.
13:33:08 <chf> I've tested a bit more with somewhat weird results.
13:33:41 <chf> Latency: v4=122ms, v6=170ms
13:34:09 <chf> v6 has got 7% loss even from the router directly.
13:37:21 <chf> As expected, there is some loss also for v4 behind that 10BASE2-cable, but much less than for v6.
13:38:23 <chf> v4: 6% (0% from the router), v6: around 20% (6% from the router).
13:38:42 <chf> All ICMP.
14:00:04 <warlord> ok

14:17:50 <jralls> Sorry, I was AFK for a trip to Home Depot. mtr output at https://gist.github.com/jralls/e1c65cc248482f0742937d20bfe2ba6f
14:19:10 <jralls> chf 10base2? Wow, that hasn't been a thing for what, 25 years?
14:22:48 <chf> This thing is buried in our walls here since 2 decades (or more?)…
14:24:05 <chf> The VDSL line here isn't THAT fast, so it doesn't matter much.
14:26:36 <chf> Since a few days I'm out of spare hubs/media converters with a BNC plug.
14:32:41 <chf> Unfortunately, they're no longer cheap. At least not over here, because overseas postage is expensive (except from China, as it seems), and the few people selling such things locally obviously know that.
14:33:42 <jralls> I'd think the only source for BNC ethernet would be antique stores. ;-)
14:35:04 <jralls> Unless you have a lot of metal in your walls you would probably do better with a wifi router.
14:35:44 <chf> Concrete ceilings with a lot of steel.
14:37:07 <chf> => 5 GHz doesn't work at all, and the 2.4 band is also a bit overcrowded here.
14:37:30 <chf> So that doesn't work very well either.
14:41:15 <chf> There are non-ethernet converters, which are said to be faster, but those are point-to-point-devices, so I would need 2 of those and a switch at each ethernet wall socket.
14:48:26 <jralls> Are you on multiple leveles? Otherwise I'd think the concrete + rebar would be nice shielding from the neighbors' wifi. But you've probably got steel studs in your interior walls that eats signal. OTOH the latest wifi gear is vastly better than a few years ago. We just upgraded the network at the CGS Library (https://www.californiaancestors.org) with AT&T fiber. They gave us a wifi router and it provides a really strong
14:48:27 <jralls> signal everywhere in the library. We're in the basement of a concrete building with steel-stud interior walls.
14:56:21 *** gandalf has quit IRC
15:00:00 <chf> Yes, 4 levels in total here. The cellar room with 2 servers already has 2 extra Gbit capable cables, however.
15:20:08 <jralls> So you'd need to pull twisted-pair cable between floors and if there was a reasonable way of doing so you would have already done it. :-(

16:22:23 <rouilj> It looks like there is a 5.4.1 release, but no news on it nor any tags that I can find. Anybody know what differences it has from 5.4.0?
16:24:53 <Simon> https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-announce/2023-September/000398.html
16:25:08 <Simon> it is not 5.4.1, it's still 5.4
16:25:39 <rouilj> got it. Thanks. I was looking at the news on the website and at the repo. So missed the email notice.
16:26:25 <rouilj> Thanks for the pointer. Have a great rest of your day.

17:38:57 <warlord> jralls, finally taking a closer look at those mtr numbers. 10% of 10 packets just means you've lost 1. COnsidering the jump from 86 to 150ms (not unusual -- it's a jump from Boston to Atlanta) you could have exited before that last packet arrived. Now, if it was 10% over, say, 100 packets, then we'd have something to talk about.
18:05:38 <chf> I've got a problem I mentioned earlier, and there's new information:
18:06:56 <chf> Automatic identification with NickServ when the client connects doesn't work here.
18:08:18 <chf> Whenever I open a query conversation with NickServ afterwards, the first attempt also fails:
18:09:11 <chf> "IDENTIFY chf $Password" results in "(notice) Password incorrect."
18:10:06 <chf> The second attempt with exactly the same command succeeds.
18:12:53 <chf> I can reproduce this behaviour reliably, and the 2 commands not only look alike, they are identical (pasted from the same clipboard buffer 2 times).
18:13:05 *** warlord has quit IRC
18:14:08 <chf> Can anyone explain this?
18:15:25 *** jervin has quit IRC
18:15:45 <jralls> chf, nope, assuming that your client is configured to identify you when you connect and that it isn't because you're reconnecting after a dropped connection and the old you is still logged in.
18:15:58 *** jervin has joined #gnucash
18:17:23 *** jervin has quit IRC
19:35:41 <chf> The error message if it fails is: "(notice) Password incorrect." Being still logged in should result in another message. The client is configured correctly with the same password to automatically log in, and it always fails, no matter how long it was disconnected. There's no evidence that the server might still remember me. Logging in twice manually always succeeds on the 2nd attempt.

20:32:11 *** ArtGravity has quit IRC
20:34:14 <AdrienM> chf, I haven't had that problem, but oddly, the server dropped me yesterday and then for some reason my client tried to connect me automatically with a slightly altered Nick, which of course, returned a 'Password incorrect' error. Make sure it wasn't doing something similar.
