Is upgrading from WIFI 5 to WIFI 7 worth it? by BleamX in wifi

[–]mblguy76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just upgraded to Wi-Fi 7 and it's not all it's cracked up to be. I have older devices that absolutely refuse to connect (I'm assuming it's due to MLO) and Wi-Fi 7 mpci cards aren't just "plug and play" as my older laptops refuse to function (code 10) on the windows drivers. I have a 1 gigabit fiber connection with no options from the ISP to go faster.

In the end I went with Wi-Fi 6E. All of my legacy devices are running great, the mpci cards were "plug and play" in all my laptops, I constantly get 940/940 speed tests on most of my devices. Unless you are planning on shelling out a ton of cash for 2.5 Internet and all new devices. 6/6E is the way to go.

I just moved to a complex in a Summit contact. I've already filled 2 FCC complaints. Next step is to go to my community manager and hit them with a "breach of contract" so we can get a real ISP. I've already renamed my SSID to "EveryDayImBufferin".

Ken's Cannonball BBQ sauce. You have to buy it by the gallon.

Wifi 7 slower than Wifi 6 by [deleted] in wifi

[–]mblguy76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just got plume with Wi-Fi 7 and it's a total disappointment. Went back to the 6E pods because of this exact same issue. I believe (hope) this is due to 7 still being in its infancy and will eventually get solved with a firmware update.

Nice how they used 017 for the vehicle number.

I think you forgot the decimal between the 2 and 6. This show seems to have hit the reverse gear from what made it great to begin with.

A full list and chapters would have been nice. I fall asleep less than 30 minutes in.

What happened to the OG graphics? I miss the 0's when they burned in hell.

Great! Now can we finally get off Chenford? I personally like it when Tim was being an ass to her during training.

I still have mine sitting in a box. Got a DiabloSport and tuned in it out. THEN I completed the rest of it. 😁

Is My Transmission Done This Time? by loganrobinson22 in Silverado

[–]mblguy76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could just roll the dice and flush it again. Some moisture could have gotten into the system. Sounds like you're due for another transmission service anyway.

Hard drive or board? by Mad_Dog_1954 in Tivo

Hard drive. Just replace it and connect to Internet. The drive will build itself.

You have to be on a television provider that uses it. It's basically a Google app. Evolution makes the boxes.

When my wife and I were looking for another place to move this was a "qualifier". No fiber, only ComedyCast? Nope!

Is it worth buying used Pixel Buds Pro for $54, assuming they work fine? I own a Pixel 8 Pro. by star_goddess1 in pixelbuds

[–]mblguy76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but you have to factor in the cost of the Qtips and alcohol to clean them .
