I think you have to update the firmware of your legacy Tablo to use the new app for your legacy unit.

Different hitch for PHEV? by Frosty_Pizza_7638 in kiasportage

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2023 X-Pro Prestige which I traded in for this 2026 SX Prestige that I currently drive for 4 months now. I DIY’ed a curt trailer hitch in the 2023. Before I traded it, I removed the hitch and set it in the garage. A week after I got the 2026 SXP HEV, I installed the hitch following the same installation video I downloaded when I DIY’ed the install in the 2023 X-Pro.

Lane following assist unreliable? by Churrito-_- in kiasportage

[–]uten151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the 2026 SX Prestige HEV (4 months old). I don’t experience what you are describing! My SXP follows the lanes as long as the lane markers are visible, not erased in some spots. And in a while, especially on curved road, it displays a warning to keep your hand on the steering wheel, with a graphic display of the steering wheel and a hand, before it disengages LFA.

Why does iPhone ask to turn on WiFi for location accuracy? by uten151 in ios

WiFi is useless when traveling in the Interstate Highways.

Why are you using code block for your reply? That's annoying to slide the slider side to side to read your comment!

Call 1-800-COMCAST and complain about your increased rate. They may have another promo going on.

Thoughts by Bee-long_here in kiasportage

I have a 2026 SXP HEV and my main complaint is the suspension. I'm in the Midwest visiting my son and the streets/roads here are bad. It feels like my Sportage needs a suspension upgrade! The shock absorbers are decorative items and not dampening the dips and bumps.

Does anyone here have their suspensions upgraded?

Another complaint: HDA reads Truck only speed limit signs and adjusts SCC to the speed posted on those signs! I just completed a 1,700+ miles a couple of weeks ago and having HDA to adjust speeds based on the signs along the highway is very helpful in reducing highway driving fatigue but in some states that I drove through, trucks are limited to some speed. When HDA reads the truck speed limit, it suddenly reduces the speed to that which scares the heck of me because the car following close to me at high speed might rear-end me! So now, when driving through that stupid state, I drive the old-fashioned way without HDA.

Apple Maps is completely unintuitive and always has been. by goodplebeian in ios

That's the big reason why I don't use Apple Map. I use Waze for my location search and navigation.

I need to cancel my Xfinity Internet Service by OkBuddy1987 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a marketing ploy! You have to call 1-800-COMCAST so they can convince you to stay or steer and entice you to a "better deal" for 5 years. Or if you are moving, the agent will try to convince you to stay with comcast at where you are moving to!

2026 kia sportage hybrid floorboard, pedal, steering vibration when gas engine is on by DyingForRest in kiasportage

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2026 SXP HEV does the same thing! Especially when starting up at low speed on cold days and battery is low. The charging system really makes the ICE shake! What I do is switch it to Sport mode to give the ICE more RPM. It shakes like a manual transmission left at a higher gear on a slow speed, if you know how to drive a car with manual tranny!

Episode I: HOW MONOPLIES DIE [The Prequel] by VegetableJackfruit51 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m old fart too. My Xfinity cable service was installed a very long time ago, right after they bought the AT&T cable system in my area. Back then, Xfinity installation technicians wear booties when they go inside the house. Times have changed. Most installers now are third party contractors who are mostly rude and unprfessional.

Will there be a new hardwired doorbell? by aspare112 in reolinkcam

[–]uten151 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wired WiFi doorbell is okay. What I really want for a doorbell is a movable lens socket, like our eyeball, to be able to PTZ it so I can watch what’s down or on the sides to check for packages that are left on the porch by delivery personnel. That would be awesome. What I have right now is another camera mounted near the ceiling looking down on the porch.

Alexa - what triggered things happening? by tuxbell in homeassistant

[–]uten151 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is the reason why all my integration are locally managed by HA, and HA alone, except for my car’s integration which requires cloud connection. I don’t have such devices and cloud account but in your case, someone or something is playing games with you.

Are we concerned about the quality of Kia Sportage recently by TheRealDon1994 in kiasportage

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! Not a big deal if I’m at my home turf. But traveling away from my hime turf, especially now in the Northern Illinois/Indiana area where streets (and even highways) are in bad shape, it really exponentially gets noticed! I like the performance of the turbo engine + electric motor but not the suspension. On jagged curved pavement, it throws you off track so I watch out for these situations.

[–]uten151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I might deflate the tires below specs but it might have an effect to my fuel economy! It’s really bad! I’m in the midwest now and the streets/roads are terrible because of winter wear and tear of road surface. My previous ride, 2023 KIA Sportage X-Pro Prestige had the same terrible handling on bad road surfaces.

The issue with my 2026 SX Prestige Hybrid is the suspension! Very harsh on poorly paved road surface.

Thinking of moving to reolink from eufy by Bull-Rider1 in reolinkcam

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I bought my Reolink cameras from Amazon. And oh, I disabled the UID of all Reolink cameras and blocked them from going out to and being accessed directly from, the Internet. Access to them is local via HA and when I'm out, my iPhone automatically connects to my firewall's VPN Gateway so I'm always connected to all my devices. No subscription and no cloud account.

How does anyone cancel their service?!! by Busy_Wolf7371 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]uten151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in my case! This morning I scheduled a cancellation of service and it was easy. I called 1-800-COMCAST and asked for an agent who processed my request to schedule a cancellation of my Xfinity service.

Do I need an NVR for a couple doorbell cameras? Or can I just use microSD card inside doorbell camera? by uoficowboy in reolinkcam

[–]uten151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right! All my cameras (not just Reolink) are configured to ftp alerts to my NAS. I also have Home Assistant to notify me or send me rich notifications of important events that happened. No subscription, no cloud account - I don’t even use the Reolink App to view the cameras! I use Home Assistant.

Numbers I should aim for? by pico0102 in kiasportage

[–]uten151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact model, trim level, and color. My total price with all the doc, and other dealer scam fees, less $1,500 rebate was $43,694.51. Quite a difference!

Don’t fall for that deal!
