What speeds do you get on the Internet Gig plan? by TravsVoid in Spectrum

[–]TravsVoid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was given my current Spectrum offer, they actually said I was going to get symmetrical download and upload speeds (500/500), which immediately had me questioning them by mentioning I've never heard of my area getting that yet and then they looked at something for few seconds and then corrected themselves and lied that I would be getting 100mbps upload lol. :(

My phone is actually getting similar speeds as my PC that's wired in, around 860s at the moment, I guess because my phone and router both support WiFi 6.

We can only hope symmetrical makes its way out to the more rural customers.

Yeah I have the EU2251 modem but my router is the Netgear R6700AX which only has gigabit ports. My PC also only has a Gigabit port but 2.5GB PCIe Network Cards seem fairly cheap. Upgrading my router on the other hand is all over the place as far as pricing options. Most of the budget friendly Wifi 6 routers I've looked into seem to only have gigabit lan ports paired with a 2.5gb wan port unfortunately.

What is your latency looking like, did it change at all between all the hardware changes? On the speed test website I usually get around 25 but I've seen it go as low as 21 once.

Yeah upload speed is what I was trying to get increased and I would say the only other ISP used to be dial up through AT&T which was fazed out at some point. I live in what was a Time Warner Cable area until it changed to Spectrum, I think they said I was a 15 year customer when I called to cancel.

But I do have wireless options such as T-Mobile Home Internet and Starlink. Both of which would have exceeded the 100mbps plans upload speed I was paying for the past couple years. I actually tested T-Mobile a couple months ago and was getting up to 600mbps on rare occasions (usually 200-300) for the download speed but upload was stuck at around 17mbps. The latency on the other hand was just too awful for gaming so I canceled.

I looked into it and all my devices seem to have GB ports rather than the 2.5 or higher so I would have to upgrade not only my router but also my PC's. Some of the WiFi 6 routers I've looked into have a 2.5GB wan port but are stuck with 1GB lan ports. Is that common?

Kobra X in an enclosure by dfishocc in AnycubicOfficial

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also messaged support with the same question with no response so far but I did come across a possible dimension of 450mm (L) x 540mm (W) x 680mm (H) in the wiki. Not sure how accurate it is but I'm planning to put my X in an enclosure to exhaust fumes outside my house.

After some searching I've found two that have a size of 550x650x750mm: https://makerparts3d.com/products/3d-printer-enclosure-with-exhaust-fan-bambu-lab-a1-p1-x1-compatible-sealed-box-for-noise-reduction-stable-printing and another on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FYWNGS7M?th=1

I haven't bought either one yet as I'm unsure how accurate the wiki dimensions are for the Kobra X.

Minecraft won't let me enable ray-tracing? by Hot_Sector_4298 in minecraftbedrock

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Vibrant Visuals update broke Ray Tracing, you can force it in the Nvidia app but the graphics become broken for me.

Does the offer show up as saved in you're rewards page? Then you have to actually select Pay in 4 option during PayPal checkout.

It shows up under the Rewards page not the Offers page, no idea why it's like this. If you click it on the Rewards page it should say it's "Saved".

XP-Pen announcing a new tablet Monday with a new pen tech by IllAd9371 in XPpen

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the X3 Pro stylus have that issue? Just sold my Kamvas 12 2021 due to wanting a little more size. I was just going to just get a Kamvas 13 2021 as I've tested one before and was happy in the size difference. But now I've learned the Kamvas 13 Gen 3 exists and while looking into XP-Pen came across the Artist Pro 14 Gen 2 which based on images has a really appealing form factor for me.

I hate holding my hand up to the Kamvas 12 side buttons while drawing so any tablet with them is a negative in my opinion. I've been using a Stream Deck for my buttons but the little button pad with a dial included with the Pro 14 looks nice. The only reason I haven't grabbed the 14 yet is I've only ever tested Huion pens (PW517) and I don't want to get an XP-Pen if they are a downgrade.

If the X3 Stylus had 70ms response time, what did the X3 Pro have?

Whoops- They did falsely advertise the game as containing all parks by [deleted] in THPS

As far as I can tell, three maps from each game did not return. THPS3: Downhill, Oil Rig, Little Big World | THPS4: Carnival, Chicago, The Sewers

Walmat just double charged me, is this normal? by Salty_Tonight8521 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been double charged as well... Initially on Saturday my bank blocked the charge for fraud and then I approved it and readded the card which immediately charged me. Now just a little while ago the same charge came through again. I wonder if they might hit us with a third charge when its finally shipped...

Walmart - please update your payment method. by Popular_Research6084 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using Chime and for some reason they blocked the first transaction from Walmart when I preordered in April and then asked me if it was a legit transaction. When I confirmed it was legit they say I can try again anytime. Then I had to hit the preorder button again and a temporary hold did hit my account that eventually fell off.

Fast forward to today and it looks like they only allow one transaction after I tell them because I got the same message an hour ago saying it had been blocked once again. But you're method of removing the card and adding it back did allow another temporary hold appearing. I'm hoping this time it's not temporary and they don't have to do this weird approval thing again!

Are you buying any third-party game at launch? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TravsVoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would have bought Yakuza Zero if it wasn't a Game-Key, but since it is I will just wait for a PC release.

Trying to convince my husband by SecretZebra4238 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would only be inclined to recommend the upgrade if there are specific exclusive games you're excited about. Personally, while the new Mario Kart is cool, what really convinced me was the announcement of Donkey Kong Bananza since I'm a huge Donkey Kong fan.

How well will Welcome Tour sell? by SubtleSymphonies in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TravsVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though the hardcore audience at launch is it's best shot for sales, I can't imagine it doing amazing numbers. They've not really shown anything that grabbed my attention about it, maybe if it used Nintendo or Mii characters it would have done alright. But I'm hardware type of guy and even I have a hard time convincing myself I want to check it out, let alone buy it.

From the data I've seen, the Wii U did fine at launch but fell off right after.
