You can unban yourself if needed. It also sends me reports to investigate the ban.
DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

@Icky it's still sat in its box, waiting to be tinkered with. I need to

The wife has filled the geek room full of other random stuff at the moment during the Christmas holiday. I need to get my geek space back.

First job of the evening was to change the RTC battery in the logic analyzer. Doing this did give me a good opportunity to have a poke around inside. Considering how old it is, theres next to no dust inside, so either its hardly been used or it's been well looked after, so that's a bonus.

Still got to learn how to use it properly. I was testing it out by putting one of the probes on /reset and another on the 8mhz clock signal on my H4. I think I've got the sample speed a little high :lol: it ran out of memory before doing a complete 1hz sample of the oscillator. Best look that bit up next.

Once I've got it all set slow enough for my H4 I'll post a few screenshots. Itll also output to postscript files too, so just need to work out how to convert those to a useful format.

Still, I'm pretty happy all things considered.

Must also get the last of the resistors in place on my second H4 and get that ip and running. Maybe Tomorrow?

I have avoided that particular problem by having my man cave up stairs so steep my wife never goes up there, let alone to take stuff up :)
