My 5G and Wifi both push 580 mbps... a bit faster when I drink the right Paso Syrah.

my orbi is getting glitchy too. replacement is $1500. likes to drop the dns once a week. i'm getting 1194 download and 24 upload. if i get the newest orbi, i can get up to about 1600 download with top xfinity tier. i don't need that yet, and then i would have to upgrade every switch in the house to 2gb or faster, and those are expensive too. also looks like i'm going to get a atsc 3.0 tuner very soon. there is a chicago station now that is broadcasting 4k cartoons. 3 stooges in 4k is da bomb.

Happy Birthday Marc! (Blame time difference)

It's a quesadilla night.

I really enjoy your simple overhead god's view Wes Anderson style food shots Steve...

We pay waaaaaay to much for XFinity wideband and cable, but it's reliable and if I'm indoors the speeds are pretty darned good (near the router it was 639Mbpd download and 41 upload). Our bigger challenge right now is my dated Orbi mesh system is getting glitchy. I was looking at replacing it and they are quite proud of them, but Costco is putting them up for sale. With my current setup I had to go and find a refurbished satellite so I could have one in the garage for a total of four around the house. I'm not sure if this is the correct thread, but any recommendations on a mesh system? Looking at 6 not 6E as I feel the E is too early yet. I do not mind paying for quality signal coverage / speed. Thanks in advance. HS

$60/mo.

Ah yes, that annoying Cornershop lyric.. thanks all, I guess another year has come and gone!

Godspeed, Suzanne Somers... Absolutely loved Three's Company as a boy. HS

Yeah, that was an emotional one. This is an ironic one (or unfortunate, I don't know which): Michael Chiarello -- famous food chef, died of complications resulting from an acute allergic reaction. What an awful way to go. I'll probably die of something stupid, like drowning in my own snot (I have a cold right now, and I had one of the hottest Chinese mustards I've ever had on my egg roll earlier, and the mustard loosened up my sinuses), so I am not being judgmental here.
