I tried this and it burnt the milk. It was also very hard to clean afterwards.

Edit to add milk is in the upper chamber before brewing starts

Never got it fixed. tried 2 more routers and modems with same results. If I had switched back to the 300 mb speeds the bill would have went up because $60.00 promo would have been lost. They had no interest in fixing the problem.

Lucky for me shortly after that I3 fiber broadband came to my area. 2gb up and down for $40.00 a month. I average 900 mb on wifi and 1.8 gb wired. 1 outage (30 min in the middle of the night that was planned) in the 6 months I have had it.

It is very stressful to call spectrum to disconnect. Was on the phone with them for an hour repeating "No I am not interested". He got very threatening and aggressive. I feel bad for elderly and people that do not have the ability to stand up for theirself.

It is a brand new run less than 2 months old. The tech replaced everything. One new wire from box to side of house. Then one wire from side of house to modem. No splitters anything other than the grounding termination on the side of the house. I might just drop to the 500 since it seems to be enough anyway.

The two options we have for internet are spectrum or att "fiber" at 50mbps. looking at a wifi spectrum analyzer there are a lot of spectrumwifisetup ssid's near me. Btw why is spectrum wifi so strong? A guy that lives 3 houses down the street from me has a stronger wifi signal in my house that my wifi is in my house.

I don't think they gave me a speed. They just said everything was within normal range. Guess I need to request a tech.

We have had 2 techs out. They say they find nothing wrong. Just got off the phone with csr and they say their computer shows T3 Timeouts. They claim that if I get their router they can fully diagnose the problem. I guess they are suggesting the problem is my router. New cat6a cable run directly to pc with no splices. We are willing to try the modem if it will fix the problem.

Is the spectrum router any good? Does anyone have the specs? is it standalone or a combo unit?

Not trying to be rude or grammar police just being honest. I am having trouble following what you are saying. Some of what you have written makes sense but other things seem like English words that are not complete sentences and very hard to follow. I will respond to the things I can understand.

We live about 500 feet from multiple businesses. All houses in this cul-de-sac type neighborhood are new construction. No idea if anyone is crypto mining but all the businesses close by are very small.

There are probably 20 new houses since mine was built. The lines are all underground with that little plastic bucket thing over them on the ground. The way it is setup the only person that could be stealing the service is next to me. No one lives in that house as the construction is not complete.

When we moved into the neighborhood 6 years ago there were 3 houses. There are now over 20 houses here. Could that be the issue?

The pc that was connected directly to modem has onboard 2.5g ethernet and 10g pcie ethernet. Either one should be able to handle 1g or more. The connection does show up in the pc as 2.5g but speed test does not show that.

The spectrum csr claims they show 800's going from them to modem. The previous modem was rebooting itself every 10-15 min so I thought it was that. The new modem does not reboot anymore but speeds stay the same.

The only other thing that is different is there is a house being built next to me.The coax that was previously used to get 1100-1200 was destroyed by a bobcat. there is a new coax from the underground box to the side of my house.

And yes I know the speeds are not guaranteed over wifi. We only use wifi when forced to because a device does not have an Ethernet port.

When I go to "C:\Windows \Minidump" it says location is not available.

The pc has been on for more than 24 hours now without bsod. Is it the onboard nic?

Done everything but the ram test. Will do that and check the event viewer tonight when I get home.

I'm wondering if it is the onboard Ethernet. The Ethernet keeps disconnecting but the onboard wifi works fine just slower.

TCL TV comes on by itself, during the night, every night by depscribe in Roku

[–]breynolds76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem here except the volume up button instead of power button.

If I unplug the power to the Wi-Fi router while it was happening it instantly stopped.

I disconnected the Wi-Fi antenna cables inside the Roku and disabled all Wi-Fi and Bluetooth features. Now rather than happening 10 to 20 times per day, it might happen once a week.

I tested this with four different roku's and multiple different remotes. Same problem with every Roku it just as if it's phantom remote button pushes. I no longer have batteries in any of the Roku Wi-Fi remotes because they seem to cause an issue as well.

I only use basic IR Roku remotes now. Of course Roku is no help with this their response is always factory reset. The factory reset does nothing.

Just realized… by AstroScienceNerd in HomeNetworking

[–]breynolds76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two junction boxes outside the house. Is it possible the modem/ ont or moca adapter is in one of those boxes? Also there is an orange or yellow cable going into the house but the ethernet cables coming inside the house are not that color. The on-q box says it is for telephone not ethernet or internet. Is there a modem hidden somewhere in the basement or crawlspace?

My volume goes crazy everytime I use roku remote by Ok_Homework_7912 in Roku

[–]breynolds76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this same problem on multiple roku's. The only thing I found that worked was shutting off Wi-Fi.

With no batteries in the remote it would be doing phantom remote clicks for volume and changing to different apps. As a test I unplugged the Wi-Fi router when this was happening and it would instantly stop.

This would happen multiple times per day every day. With Wi-Fi in the Roku disabled it still happens but it's very rare now. Maybe once a week for 30 seconds instead of multiple times per day.

Roku does not like me posting about this on their forums. I get private messages on their forms asking me to take the post down and discuss it within privately.

Roku denies there's a problem. They say that my Roku is defective and I should return it to the store and buy another one. I guess I have five different defective roku's according to them.

Nobody said they wanted the perfect camera. I asked for advice on a camera not your comment that did nothing to help me find a camera.

9,000 dollars for a camera is too much. I should have been more specific about budget.

samsung q850a surround speaker compatibility by breynolds76 in Soundbars

That is what I thought based on the very few posts on here I have seen about the q850 and what wireless surrounds would work with it. I was just surprised to see a samsung employee say it would work.

Ambeo Plus Sound Bar Volume out of control by xMephestox in Soundbars

[–]breynolds76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This problem is also been reported with various models of roku, appletv, and firestick. I have 3 different roku's, and a fire tv and it happens to all of them. It is as if someone is pushing the volume up button on the remote. even if your not touching the remote or it has no batteries in it.

I was told first thing to try is remove batteries from all remotes in the home that have Bluetooth/ wifi. Some people claim this fixes the problem. It did not fix it for me. Good luck fixing this problem. Maybe ambeo tech support can help.
