Incredible Router and Modem!

This ARRIS combo modem and router is really a great buy. I decided to ditch my rental modem from Xfinity and purchase this. Even though it will take two years to recoup the cost, I don't care because the features and control over this modem far exceed the Xfinity modem. For instance, with this device, you can hide the SSID from your neighbors and from spying eyes, something you cannot do with the Xfinity modem. Also, it is very easy to see all your connected devices and determine which frequency band to which they are connected (2.4 GHZ or 5 GHz). This was helpful with a recent purchase of a tablet that only sporadically connected to the 5 GHZ band, resulting in a return of the tablet. It is easier to change passwords with the ARRIS modem, if necessary. Initial install is very easy. I did have to call Xfinity to assist in the process. Please note that it is not possible to see your WIFI network name or password on Xfinity's website once the ARRIS device is running. You need to go into the ARRIS control panel and make changes there. I have used customer support at ARRIS, and they are very helpful and easy to work with. I highly recommend this product. Even though it is a bit expensive, it is really worth the money. Connections are always lightning fast. If you are considering replacing your Xfinity modem, don't give it a second thought!

This is a great MP3 player. If you need a simple MP3 player without all the bells and whistles, look no further. I bought this device for the gym. It is lightweight and very easy to use. It is easy to load songs onto the player (I use I-tunes.) I bought this to replace an aging IPod Touch (4th gen.) In all honesty, I think this SanDisk player has better sound quality, even with cheaper headphones. The only negatives would be that the clip does not hold the device on my waistband too well. (However, you can get an armband for this particular player online that works really well.) I also just slip it in my pocket which seems to work (once I lock the control buttons). However, even with the buttons locked, it is still possible to turn the device off by mistake. If you are interested in using this device with bluetooth headphones, you are out of luck. All in all, a great little player for the money. I would definitely buy another when this one wears out.

This is a great tablet. I had the original Kindle Fire and an ASUS Zen Tab. This Samsung Tablet far surpasses either of them. The picture quality is beautiful. It does a nice job streaming movies. Surprisingly, the two small stereo speakers work fine. Of course, the sound is better with headphones. This tablet mirrors nicely on my new 40" Samsung TV (2015 model) without any special cables. (I believe this is only true of Samsung 2015 models and later.) This tablet supports Miracast, so I can still use my ScreenBeam Mini 2 WIFI display adapter with my older Samsung TVs (or any other TV for that matter with an open HDMI port). Twice the tablet got "wonky" and the screen would not turn on and off correctly. All I did was reboot the tablet and everything was fine. Now, I turn the tablet off and on every few days (which is a good idea anyway with all tablets and phones) and I have had no problems.I got this tablet on sale with a $100 discount and a $50 Best Buy gift card to boot! I used the card to buy a 128 GB micro SD card which was also on sale for $50, so I got the SD card for free!

I bought this to replace a smaller 32" Samsung. All my TVs are Samsung. This model links nicely with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 for screen mirroring. Also, when I turn on my Samsung Blu Ray player the TV switches inputs automatically. The only problem with this TV is the HDMI port with my Blu Ray sometimes quits working, and I have to unplug all the HDMI cables and unplug the TV and wait 10 minutes or so before plugging everything else back in. Everything then works again. I recently changed the Blu Ray to a different HDMI port and so far no problems. I will have to wait and see.

What's Inside: Songs from Waitress [CD]
Fantastic Album
Customer Rating
5.0
This is my first purchase of anything recorded by Sara Bareilles. But I was interested in this album because I am going to see "Waitress" in New York. Sarah is both an incredible singer and an incredible songwriter. I am quite impressed with her talent. Although Sarah has never written for the stage before, I think she will continue to do so. The songs on the album are not typical musical theater fare, but they really capture the essence of the story line. Having seen the movie "Waitress", I am able to follow the story line through the songs. After listening several times, I am starting to hum some of the melodies. I am now quite excited about seeing the stage show.

I bought this tablet to replace an original Kindle Fire HD. The tablet is easy to use and has a many great features including a great screen. I liked the fact there is HDMI capability. The price was incredible because it was a closeout. However, the screen got so warm (slightly hot) to the touch, that it became very distracting to use. I had to return it, but by then no stores had this model for a replacement. Too bad, because I really liked this tablet.
