How to watch youku outside of China

I have tried to watch Chinese TV drama on youku. However, youku was blocked by someone so that only people within China region can watch it. I have been looking for a way to bypass it and tried out various ways, including mason addon in FireFox. Nothing worked.

Finally, I found out someone posted a different way to bypass this restriction.

All you need to do is to change proxy to a auto config file:

http://yo.uku.im/proxy.pac

That is all.

After adding the PAC, you can go to http://ipservice.163.com/isFromMainland to verify your settings.

If the page display “true”, that means you have reach the promise land. This method can also be use on Internet explorer and other browser on PC. You can just continue enjoying youku video.
* I will use this with caution.  I will not use this browser for anything else other than watching youku.

The Bose Soundbar 700 Won't Connect to App

Bose has one of the best speaker sound. I learnt about Bose more than 25 years ago and still a fan.  I bought Soundbar 700 in 2018.  It took me a while to set it up but it has been giving me troubles once a while.  Recently, I was not able to connect Soundbar 700 with my phone.  Done the factory reset on the soundbar, it didn't work. I spent hours reseting everything multiple times and finally I found this article,  https://www.bose.com.au/en_au/support/articles/HC1380/productCodes/bose_soundbar_700/article.html .  Tweaking them all and finally got it to work again. I think the most important setting is to TURN WPS OFF on the router!  Hope it helps.

Brivis Heater - Error Code #69

My Brivis HX23 Heater broke down this week.  H01 Code #69.  This code was not even listed in the User Manual!  Searching around the web and here is what I found: Secret Reset: This is not in the User Manual.  On the networker controller press FUNCTION > 1 > 4 keys and the screen will go blank and come back on after 30 seconds, this has rebooted the main PCB and reset the fault code. Use this with caution as too much gas build up could cause an explosion. Use it only after the unit has enough time to air out the gas build up. What is Code #69 or any other unpublished codes?  The best way to find out is to open up the heater unit.   There is a little LCD on the PCB showing what error exactly is. (Note: Opening up the unit may void your warranty.)
