Installing the RNDIS driver on Windows 11 to use USB Raspberry Pi as network attached

Image
I do a lot of my development and configuration via ssh into my Raspberry Pi Zero over the RNDIS connection. Some models of the Raspberry PIs can be configured with  gadget drivers  that let the Raspberry pi emulate different devices when plugged into computers via USB. My favorite gadget  is the network profile that makes a Raspberry Pi look like an RNDIS-attached network device.  All types of network services travel over an RNDIS device without knowing it is a USB hardware connection. A Raspberry Pi shows up as a Remote NDIS (RNDIS) device when you plug the Pi into a PC or Mac via a USB cable. The gadget  in the Windows Device Manager picture shows this RNDIS Gadget connectivity between a Windows machine and a Raspberry Pi. The Problem Windows 11 and Windows 10 no longer auto-installs the RNDIS driver that makes magic happen. Windows recognizes that the Raspberry Pi is some type of generic USB COM device. Manually running W indows Update  or  Upd...

Home FIOS Network - Exploring the 4 boxes and their connections

Image
We have Verizon FIOS with cable TV service.  I've never really paid attention to how the Verizon side is wired up until Verizon recently upgraded my FIOS router and tuner box. After breaking my TV tuner by disconnecting an " unneeded" connection, I created  yet another diagram of how the FIOS connections work. This is a basic wiring diagram of the house network missing a bunch of devices. Verizon ONT The Verizon optical network terminal converts the optical connection into TV and network standard connections.  The ONT is actually two boxes in my situation.  One outside connects to the optical and one inside converts something into an Ethernet WAN connection.  This results in me connecting a TV COAX and an Ethernet WAN. Verizon TV Tuner The Verizon TV tuner decodes and decrypts TV data that it receives over coax. The TV tuner must talk back to Verizon for any video control operations. It could talk back wireless, over an extra ethernet connection to back over th...

Meetings without Agenda and Background Must Die

Image
Meetings can be crazy expensive and demoralizing when they burn hours without generating results.  Good design sessions, decision-making sessions problem-solving sessions start with the pre-meeting work.  An empty meeting invitation is useless and a time drain. Invitees should decline them. A meeting without any context about the problem or prior decisions is going to fail or be way more expensive than it needs to be. Invitees should decline them. Invitations should always state the purpose, contain an agenda, describe the expected decisions that need to be made, and contain background content. Everyone has to do their part.  Organizers must meet some minimum bar for meetings to have any value.  Attendees must read the invitations and the background materials. There will be super secret projects  where no agenda and no supporting information are provided. Those should be the exception rather than the rule.
