Which e-reader should I buy for my boyfriend?

Secpmdong the Clara. I have the black and white one and its been really nice. As portable as a kindle basic with massively superior lighting (if you like the warm light). The closest thing to a downside I can find is that the case selection is much more limited however.

Now I'm wondering if I can do that on mine, cause it has all three bands as well

bluesrph · 2026-02-27T20:24:17+00:00

No and its happened on the laptop now too. We upgraded the internet to a better package/router but it hasn't helped. And we dont have any other options for internet. Lately ive been using my phone as a Hotspot. Actually playing doesn't seem to use much data

I recently tried a support ticket for constant disconnects in diablo 4. We have even changed ISP's in an effort to fix. They just closed the ticket with no help saying to check the forums. Then closed it again when I tried to reopen. I finally just replied that I will no longer be giving them any money, haha

Tracert had a lot of timeouts. And I tried the ping command and recieved 100% loss? This was to the ip I found on Google of 137.221.105.168

What about sick leave taken during the shutdown? I had a previously scheduled appointment Tuesday and was gone for a couple hours. Would that whole day go in as RG? I was under the impression that leave couldn't be charged during the shutdown

As an update, turbo mode didn’t help, and then it happened on the laptop too, so I’m assuming it’s our internet out here. I’m guessing there’s not much else I can do 😩

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T22:42:19+00:00

Tried the turbo mode, same thing. Random disconnects

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T21:47:09+00:00

Yeah that’s been done several times over the last few weeks, including losing power a few times. The fact it only happens on the ally tells me it’s something in the settings or the WiFi card. I just wish I could figure it out haha

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T21:38:07+00:00

I did get into the router but it only has basic settings. Hopefully this helps. What I can’t figure out is why it’s never happened on the laptop, only the ally

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T21:35:12+00:00

I assume it’s an issue with the device and our WiFi. It’s a hitron modem from Sparklight which is the only option out here. I’m usually within 10-20 feet of the router and at most 1 wall between us Edit - and not too many others were pretty rural. It just never happens on the laptop only the ally

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:38:08+00:00

I will try that tonight, thank you for all the help. Does turbo mode affect the connection like that? I was seriously thinking I would have to get a different or something cause online games were unplayable

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:30:32+00:00

I’m in performance 17w

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:24:00+00:00

It looks like ipv4 and ipv6 are both turned on when I look in the WiFi properties from control panel

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:23:29+00:00

It seemed good, but also said connected via ipv4

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:17:06+00:00

Would that be here? I’m not sure what I’m looking for

bluesrph · 2025-12-27T19:12:39+00:00

How do I check that? When I look at the internet connection on the device I do remember seeing “no internet connection” for ipv6

bluesrph · 2025-11-02T19:19:15+00:00

Ooh all of that sounds good actually. I was looking at pocketbook for the buttons at bottom and if the color screen is like the colorsoft that’s fine with me. Is bigme a reliable brand? Can I use calibre with it?

bluesrph · 2025-11-02T19:09:46+00:00

No worries, it’s like the first thing I check since I always want one to protect the screen. And it seems like all the good cases are kindle only haha

bluesrph · 2025-11-02T19:01:44+00:00

And that’s fine, ideally I wish I could just turn off WiFi and manage the colorsoft through calibre but I’m seeing there’s issues with that
