This is my second or third ARRIS SURFboard Modem. What can I say. They're easy to install and work great. The only reason I have replaced them is technology moves fast and they become out of date. The prior one was still working fine, but Comcast no longer supports it and this one had twice the channels so better speed.

First one wouldn't play CDs and we had to exchange it. Second one working okay. They're not made very strong. Consumes batteries quickly. A pair of AA only last a few days.

We replaced our 27 inch CRT TV in the living room with this Insignia™ - 40" Class (39.6" Diag.) - LED - 1080p - HDTV. We didn't need a smart TV and this one fits our needs fine. For the first several months, we were watching low-def cable on it, far from it's abilities. Also, lots of dvds. Recently switched to high-def over-the-air and getting more use from it's abilities. One of my favorite features is the CEC link to our blue-ray player that lets us control the blue-ray using the TV's remote.

RCA - Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna
This RCA ANT1275F amplified antenna works with most ATSC digital and NTSC analog tuners to pick up HD and standard-definition broadcast signals. SmartBoost technology strengthens weak signals for reliable performance when storms block transmissions.
Fair Antenna
Customer Rating
3.0
Really hard to evaluate indoor antennas without buying several and testing them on different TVs throughout the house. This RCA ANT1275F Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna did a fair job of pulling in over-the-air stations, but we sometimes had trouble getting both our local CBS and NBC stations which were in opposite directions and only 5-15 miles away. It doesn't do much better than a cheaper, non-amplified RCA antenna. Sounded like an omni-directional might work better for us. We finally replaced it with a TERK OMNITWR Amplified Multi-Directional HDTV Antenna for $50. The Terk works much better, but still not perfect. When I moved this RCA antenna to the kitchen TV, where we didn't need as many stations. Had it working great until I tried to coil the antenna power cable, then the signal degraded on several stations. I spent 20 minutes trying to find a location / method of dealing with long antenna power cable and only ended up with a fair result. (FYI: Had a similar problem with Terk's coax cable ... at final setup, I had to move it all around the TV cabinet to find the best location.)

Good TV but insufficient volume
Customer Rating
4.0
This Insignia™ - 19" Class - LED - 720p - HDTV is our third Insignia LED TV ... replacing our last CRT TV. Nice to have all in the house the same. This is the smallest and is located in the kitchen. It works fine, except it does not get very loud. Anything above about 20 on the volume has no change. With extra noise in the kitchen or nearby utility room, it is sometimes hard to hear the TV. Otherwise, a fine secondary TV for a small room.

Are there cases available for the new Moto E 32 GB phones?
Yes, but you can't search for Moto E ... don't know why Motorola dropped the generation number. Search for Moto E (2020 / E7). Lots of cases on Amazon.

Does this phone have VoLTE?
An internet search shows MOTO E4 and newer support VoLTE.
I checked on my Moto E (2020 / E7) by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and it shows VoLTE Provisioning on, but I don't know if mine is using it on Consumer Cellular over AT&T.

Does the SB6183 use the problem prone Intel Puma 6 chipset? Google says both yes and no. So I'm guessing there was a manufacturing date that they switched from the Puma 6 chipset
I'm not sure which chipset is in the ARRIS - SURFboard 16 x 4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem - White. When I replaced my older modem, I did skip a couple models because reviews said they had problem chipsets. Few had problems with the ARRIS - SURFboard 16 x 4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem - White. Mine has been running fine for a couple months with no problems. I have reset it a couple times when service got poor, but that's usually a problem with the cable service and after restarting the modem finds new, cleaner channels to use.
