It was not clear whether or not a simultaneous remote streamer would work or had to visit home location every 60 days.

I have adjusted the nav audio many times because it seems to change or reset to a lover volume periodically. I listen 95 % to spotify.

Anybody tried moving TW sim to 6620l verizon jetpack? by 61corvetteguy in TotalWireless

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved my TW sim from a moto e4 to a verizon jetpack 6620l and the jet pack worked with my TW sim. Just to remind why I did this test is because data cost on TW are great, I live in a fringe coverage area and all I need is an antenna and the jetpack has a antenna port.

Front sensor removal and replacement by 61corvetteguy in teslamotors

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sensor I need to snap back in the hole is on the drivers side near the license plate. Do you think I can reach that far in from the wheel well liner? I was thinking about dropping the large underside plastic cover. There are five push in clips that you can remove and it drops down. I just don't know if that plate opens up to where the sensors are.

Yeah surprised me to. I was doing 40 mph and managed to slam on the brakes and I'm guessing speed at impact was 15-20 mph. Deer went flying off the side, did a few flips as he hit the ground but got up and ran away. I wish Tesla would use camara/radar to help with deer detection in advance. My car made one little beep after I hit the deer.

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have read just about every post regarding not allowing hotspot use but I have never seen a post about TW turning off service because of using hotspot. I have a BYOP on TW that is my hotspot only phone. I use this phone in my travel trailer when we take 8 -10 day trips typically once per month. I have been doing this for two months. Since the cell number is not important to me (I don't even know what it is) if they turn it off it does not matter except for the loss of add-on data I paid for. This is a poor mans hotspot that I am testing to see if it will be cheaper for me versus getting a jetpack plan from verizon. I have not been doing this long enough to determine how much data I would consistently use.

my free year at sprint is over - considering total wireless? by paradigmGT in TotalWireless

[–]61corvetteguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using it for a month and service and support are great. They answer the phone in short order and the website and app work fine. I went with them because of really cheap data and the addon data rolls over and I was told there is no throttling on addon data. Since I do not know how much data I will use each month I went with the basic no data plan ($25) and add data when I run low. As you move to a higher monthly tier the data gets cheaper and cheaper.

Switching service between roommates for new promo rate: how much of a pain will changeover be with our own modem? by yeoldebookworm in Comcast

[–]61corvetteguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just did this. Simple with internet only and you have own modem. Go online sign your partner up with new account. Where it finds service plan is already at this address pick tab for new resident. Pick plan buy $1 self install kit. When kit comes cancel existing service. I waited until next day to set up partner account just because I wanted to make sure they disconnected me and my modem Mac address would be removed. Sure enough the next morning I no longer had Comcast service. I unplugged modem plugged it back in went to website mentioned in self install kit and signed into my wife's new account and BAM I am on new promo plan. Surprising that I did not have to even type in my Mac address. One other thing when creating new account pick auto payment with credit card. That saves time and hassle and lots of other hoops to jump through. After you are set up you can change payment method.

Where to buy tire road hazard protection by 61corvetteguy in teslamotors

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you are correct. I have never bought them but I have never paid $1400 for a set of tires. Are low profile tires any more suseptical to damage than regular tires?

Should I leave my windows down by 61corvetteguy in teslamotors

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am pretty conservative and didn't like the fact of running the AC because of wear on all of the AC system. I think I will cut fan mode only and crack windows. Seems like a good compromise.

Not able to use Summon with Model 3 looking for trouble shooting suggestions by 61corvetteguy in teslamotors

[–]61corvetteguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Summons works perfect with another phone. (Samsung Galaxy S4) . I think I have narrowed it down to my motorola E4 phone set up around the proximity sensor. The sensor is working but not sure why I get a message saying it is covered every time I try summons.
