RG6 can also be buried, just be careful not to nic the cable when you put it in.

Good to hear. What all equipment do you have?


I bought the Amplifi HD mesh system. Comes with the router and two remote stations. Covers my house (2500 sq ft and both yards) great. Bought it from the Sams website for $330 but don't see it on their website anymore.

[link=(PCpartpicker)]https://pcpartpicker.com/[/link] is your best friend here, if you are willing to build him one. Start with a good motherboard and then add the components from there. A couple of words of advice:

1. AMD is cheaper, but some games run weird on AMD. Its an Intel v AMD thing.
2. He doesn't need a top notch graphics card. If going the nvidia route, a 2070 version is $500, not $850 or more like the 1080TI is.
3. Don't go cheap on the power supply. Buy a good one.

I'm happy to help you more. My boys are still on the PS4.

Haven't seen anyone recommend the Amplifi system by Ubiquiti so I will. Put it in my house in March and have been very happy. I have also heard good things about Google's so don't think either would be a bad choice.

As for the AT&T comments, I also have their fiber and solved the problem this way:

Plug new router into AT&T router. Using DHCP, get an IP from AT&T for new router.

Turn off crappy AT&T wifi.

In my Amplifi, turn on DHCP using a new scheme (172.16.x.x instead of 192.168.x.x, for example).

Connect everything to the new Amplifi network. Since nothing but the Amplifi router is connected to AT&T, there really is only one network...your new one.

Profit? Good luck.

re: Desktop WiFi Troubleshooting

Posted by jeekers78 on 7/15/20 at 2:45 pm to
Assuming your router is N or AC based on the tests, are you sure the wifi card in the desktop is N or AC? IDK how old the laptop is, but any chance it is just 802.11g? That would cap you at 50Mbps.

Also, is the desktop wifi built into the mobo? A PCI card? Or a usb dongle?

edit: changed laptop to desktop and added a second question.

tvfool.com will let you put in your address then show you what channels you can expect from a tv set antenna, attic antenna, and outside antenna. Have you done this already? Just curious if you need two antennas.

Kodi on my Pi3 works really well. There are a few youtube videos that come out bi-weekly with updated info on streams.

Honestly, the fact that I will have to file the paperwork with my insurance company after each visit and monitor my deductible is a bigger reason why I don't want to hassle with it, than the monthly cost


I don't think this is accurate. It was explained to me that they will still be affiliated with OLOL and will run their standard billing thru OLOL. So that shouldn't change as I understand it.

You're paying for access and the right to see him 24/7/365 and nothing more. Standard insurance still applies to each visit.
IT is a great Stephen King book. I've read it several times.

You can use SUMIF or SUMIFS with a wildcard * or ? as place holders. So somthing like:

=SUMIF(range, criteria [, sum_range])

=SUMIF(X1:X99,"z*",Y1:Y99)

I bet SEC could negotiate a deal to play their conference games in Landover (FedEx Field) and/or Baltimore (M&T Bank Stadium). Both are less than an hour away from Annapolis and easy for flights.

Did you know that ESPN is the most expensive network at $4.62/subscriber? Second place is TNT at like $1.32/subscriber.

Box model and remote setting matter. I have the 24 models and use infrared and rarely have this issue. Bro in law has 23 model and RF remotes and his happens a lot. He had to order a new remote; Dtv said he "had the wrong kind" or some bullshyt but he did't have to pay for it cause of maintenance contract.

It's still better than cox. They suck. I feel sorry for people with cox.

It will lead to the four super conferences leaving the NCAA and making a playoff system and paying players. And will ruin college football.
