    I don’t think I would have any interference from neighbors. I don’t feel like they are close enough. I’ll have to mess with it this weekend and see about channels. I don’t have and baby monitors of anything. Just TVs, tablets and phones on WiFi

    This just started happening about a month ago and it’s gotten progressively worse. I’ve had the mesh network up since I bought the house last December

    I could try bypassing it but I don’t believe it’s the router. When the internet goes down all the lights on the modem flash or recycle

    I also just started having the problem recently. Had the mesh for a while now but it just started acting up. Haven’t had many issues since calling tech support. Just have to call charter to upgrade my connection since it seems like we never seem to have enough bandwidth to do anything else while streaming.

    Are you sure it’s not your devices having IP conflicts and knocking each other offline?

    Your best bet may be to exaggerate to comcast so you get a new modem. Say it’s completely out and disconnect it.

    Very much.

    My company (medical and dental insurance) was one of the last to get rid of them that I can think of, about 5 years ago. That and the insurance are the main things keeping me there after almost 19 years of service..really no opportunity unless you have relatives there, and I've spent 2 months getting blown off by HR trying to have a hiring manager held accountable for nepotism.

    Looks good. They're more resilient than you think they are. The other options are having someone hold the brake pedal, putting the truck back on the ground and finish torquing, or add 2 lug nuts and put a pry bar between them and rest it on the ground to hold the hub still. Also, when putting the rotor on, you can put a lug nut on finger tight to hold the rotor in place while placing the caliper and pads, helps a lot.

    My dad said we had issues with the internet (comcast) being shitty all afternoon (shocking). But the fiber should be moving out your way sooner than later I would imagine. My street already has it and the shop just got it last week

    I'm okay with that, since mine was a lease with 6600 miles.

    Oh and fuck tree limbs. One hit the drivers side of the bed Friday in my driveway. $2700 IF they can repair the 8 inch crack in the bedside. FML.

    Man! That sounds awesome. Since getting back I haven't even checked into the river reports to see what is going on out there. Last weekend the temps and flows looked great.
    Will be watching for your report. Good luck.
    :fingerscrossed:

    :cheers:

    Ya last night it went out about 6 times in a span of 2 hours.

    I talked to westfield g&e a few months back and they said as of right now there’s nothing planned for fiber. My in laws who live on a street directly across from the college don’t even have it yet and they were supposed to have it by last March. Every other street around them have it though

    I had the same thing happening all the time a few years ago when I had Comcast and buying my own modem solved the problem. I even got 2 replacements from Comcast and had the service guy out to the house... the only thing that solved it was my own Motorola modem. You save money over the long run anyway.

    You fish the Tooky River?

    I heard on the radio while at work about their 8th inning comeback so I opened the gamecast for the rest of the game at my desk. Can't believe they won, heard Porcello sucked though.
