DIY magnetic Mosquito net

Finally figure out how to close the kitchen wall to prevent bugs from coming in. At the first wanted to hack of the bricks and put up aluminum windows but gonna cost about 2000.

Time spent on Google let me found this DIY Mosquito net which cost less than a hundred for the size I wanted. 5ft x 5ft. There are people who can install for you as well but I was quoted 350 for it. That's about 270 more if I do it myself

Anyway is pretty easy to do it. I did few mistake by hammering down the magnet which is a no no. Just push the magnet into the pvc pipe will do.

XiaoYi Home Smart Camera

There are plenty of website guiding you all on how to setup XiaoYi Home Smart Camera or even how to troubleshoot it if the camera you bough were manufacture after November 2015. As for camera manufactured after November 2015, there is some kind of chip embedded in it and if you would have update the firmware on a camera made for China, you will then unable to use it as the camera will give you a message 'This camera cannot be used outside China" and it will shut down by itself and the only way to fix this is to flash back to old firmware.

I bought a camera online, China version and it was working perfectly and was in English version as well as having the latest online firmware. And then I got another few camera and try to setup it all over again with a new MI account so I reset all the camera and BANG I am having problem connecting the camera to my WIFI, I thought it could be my MI account issues or firmware issues which I doubt it very much because all the camera are not having the error message.

So I thought to just flash one of the camera firmware and BANG.... it really failed to work. So I keep thinking what is the problem then I end up found the reason behind it. The very first time I can't connect to the WiFi is because I have all the camera all power up which is a big mistake.

Then I end up reset all my camera and power off and reboot my router and setup one camera at a time and it works but I screw up one good camera which I am trying to fix it now.

CONCLUSION

- Camera bought before the November 2015 can be updated to latest firmware
- Latest camera manufactured date can't update to latest firmware else you will kill it.
- Power up the camera one by one to set it up

Use only China version apps on your phone.

Makan Makan in Qatar - Ruby Wu

Ruby Wu at Radisson Blue or Ramada Hotel is one of the few Chinese restaurant in Doha. As I know Ruby Wu is pretty well known Chinese restaurant.

First impression to the restaurant is ok. The decor is pretty nice and the restaurant is about 60% packed.

I had a mushrooms soup, pan froed cod fish, stir fry duck with walnut and stir fry rice noodles. Being a Chinese testing out the food, I would say is just average according to my taste bud.

So, I unlikely will patron there again in the near future or I should say I don't have the chance again as I dont know when I return to Doha.

Makan Makan in Hong Kong - Ah Yat Abalone

My very time having dinner at Ah Yat Abalone. I have always pass by this restaurant at Genting Highland but never dine in as I heard is pretty expensive but didn't expect it is that expensive until today I had my dinner at the restaurant at Hong Kong.

This is my very first HKD 8000 abalone  stuffed into my mouth. It does taste very different from other abalone but then I don't think I want to spend so much money on a abalone again. It really a shocking experience hehe.

Jalan Jalan in Qatar - 2016 Qatar ExxonMobil Tennis Open

But as usual the crowd control was bad.. needless for me to elaborate further.

Jalan Jalan in Qatar - Kayaking at Al Thakira Mangrove

Was thinking about this outdoor event for quite sometime but never get to do it and somehow I went for it anyway. Got in touch with Max from aquasportqatar.

The kayaking starts at Al Thakira beach which most people will go for bbq. From there we kayak to an opposite or the other end of the beach where the mangroves grow and the flamingo are. Each trip took about 45 minutes.  Is pretty safe as we mostly kayak on shallow water.

Unfortunately there are people around at the end of the beach which scared of most of the flamingo and we only manage to see one white flamingo and a grey herring.

Tips in Qatar - Dead Cat

How to remove a dead cat in your engine bay if you are in Qatar?

Well pretty much every car wash in the country will never do that as Baladiya will fined the car wash center.

It took a day before I found a car wash willing to do it and it is also because the nice guy at the car wash willing to help. Although he did ask for some tips which I would have willing to give but many others are not willing to do even we pay them.

Fortunately we still found a nice guy in Qatar.
