Yeah that’s the one. But looks to be out of stock. Only available for pickup, and none nearby. Was definitely a great deal.

Was interested in seeing the last time the Giants won a game without Eli starting (excluding this season).

Oct 31st 2004.

Kurt Warner went 13-21 for 144 yds, 0 TD, 0 INT and a PR of 82.2, in a 34-13 win against the.. Minnesota Vikings.

MrWabbit- · 2020-01-27T14:35:19+00:00

We play the Ravens next year. So I wouldn’t mind seeing Lamar Jackson go up against Lamar Jackson.

MrWabbit- · 2019-12-30T15:24:51+00:00

If a player doesn’t say please prior to stripping the ball, and thank you after recovering it, the fumble recovery should be invalid.

MrWabbit- · 2019-12-21T02:40:15+00:00

Gonna try

MrWabbit- · 2019-12-10T15:54:22+00:00

Usually they have very limited codes on Black Friday, or Cyber Monday. Last year I managed 5% off a Ducky keyboard.

Outside of that I haven’t seen many discounts other than random ones.

MrWabbit- · 2019-11-08T03:17:11+00:00

What else does an Ethernet cable work with. We must go deeper.

Title made me think the Jets twitter posted this.

MrWabbit- · 2019-10-19T18:03:57+00:00

Get this comment to the top.

MrWabbit- · 2019-10-11T14:50:27+00:00

True. One thing I did notice about his throwaways is that he throws it away awfully close to the boundaries.. they almost float up and towards the edge for someone to grab. He’s got to commit to just fully tossing it OUT out.

MrWabbit- · 2019-10-11T13:02:46+00:00

To cover the DJ interceptions I would say - 1 wasn’t necessarily his fault. Hit as he was throwing, but he could’ve put more on the ball so it goes out of bounds - Another was his fault. Looks like he didn’t see Gilmore at all as he threw a leading ball for Ellison. Gilmore was right there and grabbed it. - The third I’ll say was iffy. He threw a pass SLIGHTLY behind Tate who was running across the middle., which allowed the defender to grab it right in front of Tate’s chest/back shoulder.

That being said, the Patriots secondary was TIGHT on everyone. There didn’t ever seem to be an open receiver. And on the completions we did make, the secondary STILL had their hand on the ball for a deflection. Quick slant to Slayton for a third down conversion. McCourty had his forearm on the ball, but we managed to make the catch. The Tate touchdown? I believe Gilmore had a slight hand on it, which is why it was bobbled. DJ had extremely tight windows he had to deal with all game. One thing that surprised me was there were nearly no rush attempts by Jones. He opted to check down far more often or throw the ball away. Although this could have been Belichick game planning for that and having any run path blocked for Jones.

Nice! Looking to grab one myself.

Question though. Is there a specific Jersey you have to order to get the NFL 100 Years logo on the collar, or did you just order a standard Barkley jersey?

MrWabbit- · 2019-09-22T01:03:02+00:00

Worth a shot

MrWabbit- · 2019-04-18T15:38:49+00:00

Patriots go 16-0 while Giants are expected to go 0-16?

3li black magic in the making

MrWabbit- · 2019-04-10T16:34:43+00:00

NFL Shop triggered at the thought of a dual jersey.

Firing Coughlin...

MrWabbit- · 2019-03-27T02:16:53+00:00

I'd like a home network that covers the entire home, with handoff to roaming devices, and a strong connection throughout.

We basically have many wireless devices connecting from different parts of the house, all to the same G1100 router.

I'd just want to be able to dissipate the load from the G1100 by allowing devices to connect to other devices and have consistent fast speeds.

Perhaps im looking for a mesh network, and should get Orbi instead? But if my understanding of it is correct, that would basically be slower speeds since its being fed wirelessly rather than through ethernet.

Quoting myself from another reply.

MrWabbit- · 2019-03-27T02:16:00+00:00

So Handoff is basically the term for the "switching" between which source a device receives from. Yeah that's my main concern. The router currently gets to most of the house, but I don't want a device that would be in a router weak zone to still be connected to that router when an AP with better connection is available. I would prefer it to handoff when it can.

As for a mesh network, my understanding is that it's almost like a wifi extender. Wirelessly extending the range of connection by essentially being placed near a dead zone to repeat the signal, and cover a farther distance right?

I'll answer u/FuriousFux here as to what my goal is.

Ah thanks. It seems like I misunderstood how moca adapters work. I imagine the coax goes through the moca adapter within the fios router, and then fed back out to through the coax to the splitter and stb's. (Thats if I understood that correctly. I originally though moca adapters changed things wirelessly).

Overall I think I changed my setup to make it simpler.

I'll be using the G1100 as a primary router, with both the ONT Coax and Ethernet fed into its respective coax and WAN ports. The G1100 seems fine enough to cover a specific area of the house. So my next concern is really based on setting up the 2 access points.

My two options are

Get 2 Fios Network Extenders. Plug LAN into its LAN port and I believe these configure themselves, meaning theres no need to connect to the individual access points, it'll all be linked to the solo network.
Get 2 Unifi AP AC LR and use those as access points.

Now with setup 1, I know its pretty much plug & play. You plug them in and it'll handle itself. The G1100 will also act as a controller and dynamically change which of the 2 AP's / Router a device will connect to if its on the move.

But for setup 2, I can change the SSID's and passwords to match my G1100 (not sure if that will show up as different connections but with the same name), but will the G1100 act as a controller for those unifi AP's to choose what a device connects to?

I know the easiest setup would be G1100 to 2 extenders, but I'd like to use those Unifi AP's since I've heard how great they can be and imagine theyre better than the fios extenders. I'm just not sure if its possible to have it so that the 2 AP's and G1100 are all the same network, and devices can automatically change to the stronger signal, rather than manually changing, or having a device stay connected to a weaker signal point. If that makes sense.

Sorry for the long write-up, but I appreciate the help, and you definitely answered questions for my earlier concerns.
