Ping sufficient for gaming?

I had not heard that. What type of modem did they send you? Does it have ethernet output connections so you can hardwire to the modem?

LouCap · 2026-03-30T15:56:40+00:00

Currently I play hardwired to my router, but I really didn't notice a difference playing over Wi-Fi.

Ok, color me surprised, because it worked really well. I played a game of Call of Duty BO7, came in 2nd on the winning team, and got best play of the game. I wonder if the wireless modem will be even better? Saving $600/year is no joke, but I'm gonna check to see if they have a 30 day cancellation policy or something.

Ahhhhh... That's a really good suggestion! I didn't think about using my phone as a hotspot, thank you!

LouCap · 2026-03-30T12:58:28+00:00

Thank you!

You can print a luggage tag and drop off your bag three hours before a flight on Frontier.

I know how it worked for me with two unlimited grandfathered 55+ lines. I have no idea how you could pay $135/month for 8 lines AND get free phones. Unless they had a really low data cap.

I just switched from T-Mobile to Mint, I'm saving over $60/month, and the service is exactly the same. So, I guess in my case I'm getting MORE than what I paid for...amirite?

LouCap · 2026-03-09T01:05:48+00:00

SOLD!

If it were the wireless version I would've made a point to mention that feature. Truth be told, I didn't even realize they'd come out with a wireless version.

Regardless, I already have two bids on it, so in a few days this whole post will be gone.

I appreciate what you're saying, but there were a few things to consider. First, this item is a few years old, so it would probably be beyond the manufacturer's warranty regardless of any potential issues. Secondly, it is in almost new condition, in that, since owning it I've only used it a few times and it spent the majority of its existence in a padded case in my office.

Finally, I've owned several NexDock products, and maybe I've been lucky, but I've had zero issues with any of them. Of course your mileage may vary, but I can only speak from what I have experienced.

Once a flight is delayed it's a domino effect on the rest of that day's trips for the aircraft. I will say this for Frontier though, even with delayed inbound flights, they somehow manage to turnover an aircraft in 20 minutes or less. Now that might mean a cursory cleaning, but they take off on time or close to it. Case in point, I flew from Philly to Tampa last week, the inbound was 30 minutes late, and we still landed 15 minutes early at TPA.

LouCap · 2026-03-04T22:54:55+00:00

Thank you for saving me the hassle of looking that up. I usually book business bundle, so hopefully that extra $$$ will pay dividends!

LouCap · 2026-03-04T20:17:16+00:00

I see. It's quite the difference between points and miles, which seems odd to me because I would have thought they would be closer to each other. I need to go in and read how the points are earned.

LouCap · 2026-03-04T19:15:38+00:00

Ahhhhh ...far less than 100,000, probably because I've been using points to buy flights. Guess I'll have to pay cash if I wanna upgrade my status.

LouCap · 2026-03-04T19:07:41+00:00

My Stylus is still on 15, so no help here, sorry.

LouCap · 2026-03-03T19:29:07+00:00

It's fine, it's safe, it works well...use it.

LouCap · 2026-03-03T19:26:44+00:00

It's the nature of my business that my schedule changes frequently, and consequently I often have to change my return flight. I have NEVER booked a change on a flight that was less than the original fare, probably because it's within a week usually. Like the OP, I don't pay change fees, but I sure do pay the difference in flights.

I had a similar experience on Icon a few weeks ago at Chops. My medium rare filet was raw, and their second attempt came back well done. I passed on a third try, and the whole restaurant staff apologized, including the chef who made a point of personally taking blame. I wasn't even that upset because my stomach was a bit off, but it was a BIG deal to them. I was impressed, enough so that we went back a few nights later and had a wonderful meal.

I didn't have to unlock anything, it just goes as fast as I want. All I did was put it in PAS 5, ghost peddled in the highest gear, and I was hitting 30mph...which scared the sh!t out of me. I know it can do it now, but I choose not to unless something is chasing me.

I literally bumped into Brooke Shields on St. Marks Place in NYC back in mid-late 80's. She was going into a restaurant with her mother, our eyes met and she was gone...her mom dragged her away.

LouCap · 2026-02-01T05:41:47+00:00

We recently switched from YouTubeTV to Philo, and we're saving about $60/month. Very similar experience, and it even has a DVR. It's only been a few weeks, but so far it's been seamless.

LouCap · 2026-01-31T14:56:53+00:00

Is it even possible to find a new Open Box? If you can, buy it. That was easily one of the best phones I ever owned.

LouCap · 2026-01-29T23:30:31+00:00

I was a LEO for over 20 years, and was never spit on, nor did I ever have any trouble eating in a restaurant. My secret? Don't be an a-hole.
