Hooked up and I get the fast speeds (~50 Mbit/sec) that the cable company provides, however, the lights fail to display correctly. There's some error logs I need to look into, but honestly it might be an issue with the cable company--configuration and setup rather than modem. Since I'm getting the speeds I'm satisfied.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This has been working with the TV well. Youtube and Comedy Central app is mainly what I've tested it with. Sometimes the Comedy Central app fills the TV screen, sometimes it fills a portion--most of the screen. Uncertain if this is due to the app, tv, or adapter. Unplugging and replugging in seems to fix issue. Sound comes through the HDMI adapter, which is great--unlike the laptop. Saves the need to use the laptop for some video watching.

I'm very pleased with the external hard drive. I bought two--for mirroring sake-and both are performing as advertised. To use them with Mac, I had to format the drives with Disk Utility.

What's great about it: Easy to use, quality product
What's not so great: Price, short connector
I got this drive because Apple tends to make great products. The price is a bit more than similar products. Also, you cannot manually eject the discs--however, in the years I've used the product, I've not required this feature.
This product has... Short connector cord, Reliable/durable, Quiet, Burns fast

Is this modem wireless?

Is this modem wireless or does it have to be connected via ethernet cable to the computer?
For wireless you will need to plug in a wireless router. This modem only has one wired connection.

Does the drive have hardware-based encryption?

Is this a self-encrypting drive (SED)? If not do you make (Seagate) or sell one (Best Buy)?
If this were a SED, I believe it would be advertised and perhaps more expensive. My understanding, is that these are plain regular hard drives--albeit small, portable, USB 3.0, and run without separate power cable.

Dynex™ - 6' DVI-D-to-HDMI Cable - Black
Dynex™ - 6' DVI-D-to-HDMI Cable - Black
Connect your PC or laptop with a DVI output to an HD monitor or projector with an HDMI input using this 6' cable that supports monitor resolutions up to 1920 x 1200.
 

HDMI out to DVI in..?

I want to hook up my xbox one to a Acer monitor that only has DVI and VGA inputs. Is it possible to do that with this cable if I'm hooking up the HDMI end to my xbox one console and the DVI end to my monitor. Will it work?
Technically it should work, however, sound will have to be routed another way--since DVI doesn't carry sound, only video.
