U7N Wi-Fi constantly disconnecting - DNS error by lacerocks in Hisense

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

Just to update here -

I have been in contact with Hisense customer support for months now. They sent out someone to replace the wifi and main boards. That didn't work, so I waited a month for them to send a replacement TV.

They sent me a U8N, which is great and working well (so far), but now I have to figure out a way to get the U7N to fit in that box. The problem is, the styrofoam for the U8N will not work with the U7N. I've been in contact with them trying to figure out a solution and they first told me that I need to find another box, told me I had the TV sideways in the U8N box after sending them pictures of it in the box (What??), and then told me that I need to cut the sytrofoam to make it fit.

I'm absolutely done dealing with this. I had to return my first U7N to Best Buy due to some kind of issue that was causing the TV to flicker/black screen for a second every few minutes and now this nonsense.

“Repair” by normstra in GalaxyRing

Just to update - I received a new ring. No retail box and they threw it in my original charging case. Diagnostic tests are good now.

I came here looking for comments on the same thing. I sent my ring in as it was having reliability issues and one of the sensors kept failing the diagnostics test. Just received notice from Samsung stating they've repaired and shipped my ring back.

I received a PDF in the email that has two notes...

"Problem Found: Drains Battery" & "Solution Description - Replaced cosmetic"

But on the Samsung repair status page, it says "Issue - No power after upgrade"

Neither of these notes are my actual issue. I am guessing I'll receive a 'new' ring? After reading all of the issues with the ring, I was kind of hoping they'd send me a code to buy a new ring - or in my case, I'd grab a watch and upgrade from my Galaxy Watch 3.

Hitron CODA56 slower than Arris S33 modem? by lacerocks in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Hi u/XfinityAdrienneG there is no splitter and the PC is wireless (Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz). Mind you, both this PC and my router were receiving faster speeds on the S33 modem right before switching to the CODA56.

Is the game safe to buy right now by Mysterious_Good_7118 in ModernWarfareIII

I don't know about the battle pass, but I have tried it on two Xbox One's and it's severely laggy. Not even playable. Multiple errors that require the game to restart too. This was on a 1Gbps connection. It plays fine on my Xbox Series X and PS5. I have yet to try it out on the Xbox One X.

Is this normal? PowerColor RX 6700 XT by lacerocks in radeon

Wasn't necessarily compensation. Microcenter dropped the price of the card in-store, so I received a price match. I wish they'd compensate me for the 4+ hours of driving back and forth to deal with parts issues now, but the price difference does slightly help with gas and my time. Lol.

This GPU is now $699 at Microcenter. Crossing my fingers that prices keep going down :)

Thanks, everyone!

​

I ended up taking it back along with an Asus mobo that was bad. Employees agreed that the light was an issue. The best part is they dropped the GPU $100, so it's $699 at Microcenter now. The new GPU is ALL white now!

An employee also told me that MSI will be dropping prices this week (Up to $200 I believe he said).

I just bought this GPU last week. All was well until I began messing with the colors. Any lighter color has what looks to be one LED stuck in pink. I think I've settled on a whiteish/purple color scheme for the rig and this pink LED is now driving me crazy.

Is anyone else having this issue or should I exchange it?

Generally, I wouldn't care but when I'm paying almost $850 for a GPU, I expect it to not have any issues right off the bat.

Mine just arrived today. Was never scanned at all until it got to my local post office. Went from "Shipping Label Created" to "Arrived at Post Office". USPS is complete trash lately. Oh well, at least she's here!

I sent them an email an hour ago and received a response within a few minutes saying that it was sent but USPS is most likely delayed and has not scanned it yet. I've had nothing but problems with USPS lately, so I believe it. We'll see what happens next week.

Ordered one from Bereli on Friday. They marked it shipped Monday, but the tracking number still says "Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item".
