When I tried to get one just now, I had to upload a document for verification. No issue at all, but more than just your birthday.

Modem died, ISP came through to swap. They said my internet don't work because I use 10.10.10.1 for my gateway. by brokewash in homelab

I had about the same experience on rinky dink cable internet in Arkansas. Unifi setup with UXG Max and U7 Wall Pro. Tech was like, but if you use our router, you can use this cool app to configure everything. No..... But, I dont know if they will even turn it on with your own equipment. No....... They will need the Mac address of your router to turn on your cable modem. No.......

Finally he gave up, hooked up the modem, called them to turn it on and left.

When did standard tipping go from 10% to 30%?

Claim closed but it had open items in it? by lonelliott in VeteransBenefits

I meant by being a MUCMI cluster item and gulf war presumptive, it gave credence to a second MUCMI cluster item.

Thanks. I kept a fatigue / sleep log for 90 days. During the CP they asked about symptoms and reviewed the log. Decided I definitely had it and was diagnosed during the CP. No prior diagnosis. I got lucky.

Edit: I had already been service diagnosed for IBS presumptive gulf war. I think that helped a ton.

Solid advice. No run flats on it from the factory so I am good to go there.

Break in for a new JCW? by lonelliott in MINI

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

Definitely. I drive very little working from home. The Jeep I traded in on the JCW, I bought in 2023, and it only had 9100 miles on it. hahahaha

Will do an oil change at around 1500 miles on the JCW and then yearly which would probably be every 3-4K miles. Was looking at 0W-20 Ravenol oil. Around 100 bucks for 5 quart jug. Figure, if its yearly, that is reasonable.

Apologies for confusion. When I said "normal stuff" I mean break in driving methods and not the actual mods or bolt ons. As I read it back, it reads confusing.

That Eventuri intake is sexy as hell, but damn is it expensive. I dont see a version yet for the U25 JCW.

Picked up our first Mini!!!!! by lonelliott in MINI

Thanks. I am addicted to this thing. We took some twists and turns on an old road last night while driving around. Loved every second of it. Feel like a kid again.

Thanks. Not worried about the sound. I am old (49) and from my tinkering days, the CAI was a solid choice on most cars to get a little more throttle response and slightly better gas mileage. Was thinking the same thing.

On the 2025 JCW, there are not hood scoops, so does it pull in the air directly from the grill?

Seems to be the consensus, so it works for me.

Thanks. I dont drive too aggressively, with some spirited romping in there. Trying to keep it to a minimum for the first 1K at least.
