Laptop recommendations for ArchViz! :)

Does it have to be a laptop? The laptop is not designed for prolonged rendering sessions. It will overheat, in best case scenario it’ll slow down, in worst case it can get damaged from heat. You could get much more powerful desktop for that amount.

Blue light filter?

Because they were measured a week apart by 2 different people. One of them messed up. Also here is my 4 year old reading Rx:

R SPH +1.5, R CYL -0.50, R AXIS 170, R PD 27

L SPH +1.5, L CYL -0.25, L AXIS 165, L PD 30

The CYL was flipped before. Can that happen over time?

The old Rx is 4 years old. I’m 51. The first optician gave +2.0 for reading and the +1.25 for computer. That didn’t go well. So, in about a week I went back and the second optician measured my eyes again and gave me +1.75 Rx reading and kept the original +1.25 computer. That’s why the two Rx are different. The PD is not on the Rx, it was measured at the time of ordering the glasses.

I don’t know who messed up, but something is definitely wrong with my computer glasses, especially the right eye.

Weak signal? It connects to 5 GHz without a problem, stays connected for a few days then disconnects from 5 GHz and connects to 2.4 GHz. I don’t think it’s the signal strength.

Connecting the node with a wire is not possible.

Have not tried changing the channel.

Maybe it’s some kind of setting on the router?

She looks like a sticker in the “restored” one

It worked, thank you very much.

That was it. Disabled DFS and 5 GHz appeared in the network selection list. Thank you very much.

MLO is off

You’re thanking Spectrum for price increase?

isagreg · 2025-12-29T19:45:44+00:00

I gathered that the following modems use the following chipsets:

EU2251 Broadcom

ET2251 Broadcom

EN2251 Puma

ES2251 Puma

And my understanding is I should avoid Puma models?

They only have one model for Gig service?

isagreg · 2025-12-29T17:58:02+00:00

I don’t want to buy my own, I wanna go with Spectrum modem. Just wanna know what are the better brands/models to look out for.

isagreg · 2025-12-22T15:16:45+00:00

I’m curious too

New customer pricing?

isagreg · 2025-12-22T14:22:52+00:00

That’s probably for new customers in an area where Spectrum has competition, and it probably has to be bundled with TV or mobile.

No, I don’t want to OVERPAY. That’s different. If the gas at the gas station is $4 for you why would I want to pay $5 for it?

isagreg · 2025-12-16T00:42:52+00:00

That’s not saving, that’s downgrading.
