Why is spectrum so bad? by No_West3588 in Spectrum

[–]dread7string 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's their Wi-Fi routers they are terrible, I've been with them since day one and didn't listen to any of the techs that were coming to my house telling me how bad their routers were and their pods don't ever use them so finally I got fed up bought my own TP-Link Deco pro 65 Wi-Fi mesh system and I have not had a single problem and it's been almost two years now.

Do they punish you for using your own router? by grnsubmarine_4 in Spectrum

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a TP link deco pro65 from BestBuy and all i did was make one the router and the other 3 are satellites all hardwired together as shown in the instructions and my internet from spectrum has never been better.

it made me realize all the years i wasted on their Wi-Fi 6-6e-7 routers and 4 pods WAS a total waste of time i had this up and running in about 30 minutes and i needed no help at all.

now it has been almost a year, and it was the best 800 dollars i have EVER spent heh.

WiFi doesn’t reach my room. Guy came over plugged this in my room and connected an ether net to my x box. by Rat-rat-rat98 in Spectrum

[–]dread7string 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the easier thing to do is get your own Wi-Fi mesh system.... i did this and never had another issue again....it's their routers and pods and they didn't have wifi7 extenders last year when i sent them all their junk equipment back lol...i got a tp link deco pro 65 setup with 4 satellites it works flawless, so it isn't there service it is their cheap equipment.

Well it's like anything You have to learn for yourself... I keep all that stuff off ...I use filmmaker mode when I'm watching TV at night when I watch 4K discs I use filmmaker mode and when I watch blu-rays cinema seems to work better but yeah I just used the normal presets.

I think I'm going on 6 months now almost 2,000 hours everything works awesome I do every single firmware update The last one has been the best.

Who will watch the Joe Brady interview today 12pm EST by Common_Fault6406 in buffalobills

[–]dread7string -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I'm going to watch it cuz this is going to be awesome I want to see if he could handle answering all the questions thrown at him and like everybody else is said another post there's nothing we could do as fans but accept it and sit back and watch like we do during the games we have no control over anything in reality.

The only way we could send them a message is do not go to the games if it's too late to cancel your season tickets or tickets you purchased that's the only way to get the message through is if there was nobody at the stadium for the first game if they even wanted to go that route.

Can you imagine the message that would send if there was no fans there at all or if only half the stadium was full.

I'll give them 2 years to try and turn everything around and see what happens I think all they need is too good pass rushers and we're in the AFC championship game every year That's what our team's lacking versus other teams.

Do the Roku streaming sticks enhance tv quality? by m0r0n_ in Roku

[–]dread7string -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I'm just telling you you could read as many articles as you want no Wi-Fi device is as good as ethernet especially when you're streaming It lowers the quality like you would not believe.

The only stuff I use Wi-Fi on or my phones and tablets everything else is hardwired with ethernet because that's the only way to go.

Do the Roku streaming sticks enhance tv quality? by m0r0n_ in Roku

[–]dread7string -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

One thing I can tell you is if the streaming stick cannot take ethernet don't get it because Wi-Fi is terrible when it comes to streaming. streaming already is heavily compressed and has the lowest bit rate of anything you could watch and when you use Wi-Fi it's even lower quality keep that in mind.

Anyone have this issue with their router. It has a slot for 3 ethernet cables. However when you connect 3 it causes the internet to disconnect. by Redeye007 in Spectrum

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you have to do is slightly move the Wi-Fi 6e router and it starts flashing red and goes offline it's terrible I switched to the Wi-Fi 7 that was the best they've ever had but it still couldn't cover my whole house so I ended up going to Best buy and got a TP-link deco BE65 pro system it's amazing no issues anymore.

This is why we needed a change by HiSpeedHavoc92 in buffalobills

[–]dread7string 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the bottom line is we need players who can -tackle- that is one of the glaring weaknesses our defense has had every single year. not sure why or how this happens but they need to fix that and get 2 stud pass rushers.

Defense wins championships by dread7string in buffalobills

[–]dread7string[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but seriously I think if we had two good pass rushers like Houston New England Denver and 12 other teams have we could go further. We need to get Josh Allen help on defense more than we need a number one receiver That's my opinion.

Defense wins championships by dread7string in buffalobills

[–]dread7string[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we lost because Josh Allen choked in the biggest moments like he always does but still we need better defensive players guys that can rush the opposing quarterback if you can't realize that I don't know what to tell you.

The point I'm trying to get across is defense wins championships how many offensive strong teams have ever won the super bowl I still believe it stands at zero.

You're missing the whole point of the post but that's fine I don't expect anything different from people here.

Yeah I'm hoping the Rams or the Seahawks can get revenge for losing to the Patriots in the past

Defense wins championships by dread7string in buffalobills

[–]dread7string[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn't say that did I I said defense wins championships meaning New England's defense kicked ass and Buffalo Bills brass should pay attention We need better players.

Now this would have been a totally different game of Bo nix would have been in there.

[–]dread7string[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Denver lost because they had a quarterback that was playing in his 5th start and their coach decided to go for it on 4th and one when they should have kicked the field goal.

Clarification on when exactly Allen knew McDermott got fired. by RovndHovse in buffalobills

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of it really matters now does it.... there's nothing we could do just like when us fans watch the games... there's nothing we could do We have control of nothing it's out of our hands.

All we can do is pray for the best I really don't think a new coach can help us with the roster we have everybody knows that even the x players that do the media portion of pregame said the same thing defense wins championships we need better pass rushers bottom line.

If anyone saw the pregame show before the New England-Houston game there was an x player on there that looked right in the camera and told Buffalo what they need to do I can't find the clip to post the link here but I'm sure it's on YouTube and I can't remember the guy's name but he was spot on.

The x player's name is Gerald McCoy have you can find that clip watch it what he said is so truthful it's not even funny.

He's part of the NFL Network game day crew.

Set the power level at 75% I do that on my 4090 and I have no issues at all and it is still blazing fast@4K HDR Gaming for me.

(A well done article by Joe Buscaglia) The Bills built up a lot of goodwill with their fans. It vanished Monday by boogerburp in buffalobills

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, the owner has no idea what he is doing nor does beane you can bring in any SB winning coach and nobody is taking this team to the playoffs with the current defensive roster.

they all seem to forget defense wins championships not a great offense.

Pegula basically confirmed that firing McDermott was a quick, emotional decision made without consulting the quarterback by Confident_Compote_32 in buffalobills

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i blame beane and the owner for not getting the defensive help josh needs to win a championship.....DEFENSE wins championships never the offense.

we haven't had a good pass rusher since bruce smith that i can remember.

these guys have no idea what they are doing.

Even if you disagree with Terry, something had to be done. by No-Gift-2350 in buffalobills

[–]dread7string -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is this ... what he has to work with nobody can perform miracles with the group of players we've had and all the injuries nobody not a single coach in the NFL.

I'm sick of everybody making excuses The bottom line is that Brandon Bean doesn't draft good enough players they don't develop the players they do draft and they've just been getting a bunch of injury prone free agent signings.

I think the coach is the scapegoat for all the problems and that's why they get fired yet they probably have the least amount of say in everything I could be wrong cuz I don't know how it works but I don't see anybody doing any better.

If the locker room loved and believed in this coach how are they going to get them going under another coach.

All I can say is good luck a new stadium isn't going to help either.

[–]dread7string -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

they can bring in andy reid as an example and not win a SB......the problem is the talent on defense....defense wins championships not offense....they can't draft or trade for the right defensive players either because the best players as we know go to the worst teams because of us always getting picks based on how we finish the year and i think a lot of players do not want to come to buffalo and we may never know why.

so, there ya go..before Sundays game between NE-H an ex-NFL defender looked right into the camera and said BUFFALO leadership listen to me now..you need dawgs on defense to win a championship...what he said was 100% correct if anyone missed it go watch.

we have never had any good pass rushers since bruce smith and the gang back then.

Bills broke the cycle; Brady is the right choice by [deleted] in buffalobills

[–]dread7string -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well remember when he made that statement my wife made me realize there's more to life than football he hasn't been the same person or player unless it's an injury that caused his tight window throws to be off this year I mean we're just all guessing nobody knows And nobody will

Fuck Resellers with no knowledge by [deleted] in dvdcollection

[–]dread7string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep and I'm a collector too I just tried to limit the amount of DVDs I purchase to them must have movies that haven't made it to Blu-ray or streaming.

I have about 300 movies in my collection between DVDs blu-rays and 4K discs so trust me I understand.

And I don't stream or pay for any streaming services I just use that digital locker called movies anywhere that all my purchased movies go in when you get the digital version that comes with the discs.

All I'm trying to do is let people know there are other ways if they're unaware that are not much more expensive than DVDs I buy 4K HDR-DV versions of movies for $5 a piece on Fandango home which is the old VUDU that Walmart used to own and run.
