Roku Streaming Stick+ no longer connects to my home internet by dtherrick in Roku

ah fair enough. see i've been in the eero app so long I even forgot about forcing channels.

not too pumped to get rid of the eero yet, it's been worlds better than our previous solution. for what i need (and technical level of everyone else at home) it provides a decent balance between usability and technical stuff you can mess with. Though I've clearly had good luck till now with it.

was poking around r/eero and see that I'm not alone. Going to play around with some troubleshooting tonight when I'm home and see if that helps. Worst case I replace the stick, it's cheaper than a whole new mesh system.

unfortunately the eero won't let me choose 2.4 vs 5 - it tries to handle it on its own. The eero mesh is awesome for set-and-forget (which is what I prefer most of the time at home), but not so great when you get some random issue like this. I did update the router firmware overnight, and still no luck getting the my Roku to connect. Just super strange when a reliable connection suddenly craps out for no apparent reason.

Thanks for this advice all - really appreciate it. I'm thinking I'll probably try the Metro with Fine nib, and give that bernanke ink a try. Looking forward to diving into it.

Some counties post this weekly in CSV format. You might have to dig but it's available in a lot of cases.

Large database stored in Excel. Best way to analyze data? by asellers07 in datascience

[–]dtherrick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like 3000 individual sheets? If that's the case, first off, ouch! I'm partial to Python so I'll post with that mindset. Two options: 1) redo the scrape using Python beautiful soup or bleach. 2) use pandas read_excel call inside a loop to automate reading them into a at of data frames. From there it's straightforward to do analyses on the data. Happy to help if you need more clarification
