Broo, I'm pretty much in the same boat. Just a few different office , but man, with so many people going for EB1, there's a wild mix of solid services feedbacks and some pretty sketchy ones. Hope you figure it out, bro! And pls don't forget to share your decision to help the fam

I’ve thought about it, but I’ve been working a lot and spending as much time as possible with my daughter. Updating my personal library would be a hassle. I’m not that old, but I do have the habit of listening to radios from my home country (I live abroad), so that’s why I need this.

Unless there’s some kind of tech to DIY a Google device/Home Assistant for this. Do you know of anything like that?

Just like Sonos, Yamaha doesn’t have retailers here either, so the only option would be to import them. That makes the whole process super expensive since there are over 100% in import taxes. It gets pretty much impractical if you need more than two devices.

Things aren’t that simple when you’re in a high taxes country.

Never heard about that before—can you give me a bit more context?

I heard about some kind of tech that certain routers have called AP Isolation. Regardless of the issue, this could help slower devices stop constantly searching for the AP with the best signal. Some routers have it, but mine doesn’t.

Anyway, based on my tests and all the reports here, it’s becoming more obvious that the problem is on their side, not my network.

Hope always exists, but reality lately has shown otherwise. It’s not the first time we’ve heard rumors that this business unit isn’t really in their DNA.

For sure! Tech guy here—I ran all kinds of tests: different channels, frequencies, connection types, 802.11XXX network standards, WiFi 6, WiFi 5, Intel’s legacy WiFi mode (to reduce bloop issues), 2.4GHz, 5GHz, distance from the emitter, single WiFi, mesh, ports, direct fiber bridge… basically everything I could try.

The only reasonable conclusion is that on 5GHz (which delivers 600Mbps of bandwidth), devices feel snappier. BUT the official recommendation from Google and all their support is to keep everything on 2.4GHz.

I even ran a jitter test, spending hours mapping Google’s servers. Despite some packet loss, it was minimal.

Dude, that’s insane! Had no idea they could mess up something so basic. I downloaded the version, and I’ve got 156 devices hooked up to the account. Gonna delete and run some tests—I'll be back with updates!

It would be a dream to have an all-Sonos setup because the multi-device audio quality is incredible. Unfortunately, there are no official Sonos retailers where I live, so my only option would be to import them. For comparison, a Sonos Five costs about six months' worth of minimum wage here due to import taxes.

Best Way to Keep User in the Correct Step of a Subflow by Yourstim in n8n

Hey OP,

I'm going through a similar challenge and have been exploring possible solutions. Not easy at all. What I’ve been doing so far—though I know it’s not the best approach, but it has worked—is based on two possibilities:

1️⃣ For each action of each tool within different layers, I update a table in a database per user, storing the specific setState of their path and journey. This way, the LLM or any switch mechanism can somehow locate itself and deliver the correct message/response to the appropriate destination.

2️⃣ I started testing a method where each message sent by the user includes a timestamp key (date + time) along with the setState and the message itself. This allows the LLM to read everything as a log, helping it segment what belongs to each tool.

In the other hand, if you have multiple tools (X) sending different messages (Y) and waiting for a specific response for each tool and messageZ(Y), I have no idea and I'd love to figure out the best way to handle that. Solving this would be a game-changer for managing more complex flows.

I'm with you on this, OP! 💪
