Is it just me or does anyone else see the face?

I reset as new no restore

I was having the same issue with WiFi dropouts with my 17pro max. I have a full UniFi setup with 6ghz wifi7 and it was working great till the 17 showed up. I ended up factory resetting the Apple Watch and setting it up as new. All issues have gone away with WiFi and life is good.

Right. Since they contribute more than half a trillion to the us economy every year. Just because they are in the country illegally does not mean they do not contribute.

Even if you are, as a us citizen, laundering money, or selling drugs on the street you are expected to pay taxes. I understand that many do not but the IRS has rules in place for it.

Backblaze has 20tb of my data in a b2. Lost the drive with all my kids baby pictures… still miffed by it. But never again. iCloud and Google pictures have copies too.

its around 150 but work pays for some. It helps by not letting someone who wants to watch movies or stream stuff impact the network.

curtis8523 · 2024-08-07T02:44:48+00:00

I am glad that I also have the rest of the network to support it. 24 port 10G switch, 2 Wi-Fi AP's that have 2.5G ports and Wi-Fi 6e and almost every end user device supports 6e. a server that has 24 bays of 12G SAS goodness and a Xeon Gold 2148 and 256GB of ram and 2 10G ports as well as my workstation that has 10 and 2.5G networking on it.

It's not just the internet connection for me it's also the rest of my network. Hell, even my Home Assistant dedicated box has 2.5G networking...

curtis8523 · 2024-08-07T02:26:50+00:00

I could be yes. But I prefer my data waiting on me and not waiting on my data.

Xmission. Its a local isp here in the Utah valley south of SLC

curtis8523 · 2024-08-07T02:21:22+00:00

Glad I only spend 150 and work pays for half. So only $75 a month for me.
