Title: Block of flats with lights turned every night causes burst of CRC errors
Post by: digitalnemesis on May 04, 2016, 08:46:24 PM

Is there anything I can do to reduce errors from when the lights outside the entire block of flats automatically turn on at night?

Exactly when the lights turn on, a huge burst of CRC errors are seen, this happens every night.

Smash the lights.

Other than that no unfortunately.

Do the CRC errors return to normal after the lights have been on for a 5 minutes and what type of light filament is in use on the flats for example Leds / fluorescent / halogen / Incandescent ?

Right after the lights have turned on CRC errors return to normal.

I think they're fluorescent lights but can't be sure 100%. They light up the entire housing estate, mounted on outside walls everywhere.
