If you’re like many busy people, you have a dozen things going on at once, and working on the computer is no different. You likely need your computer’s USB ports to connect a keyboard or mouse, transfer files and charge devices – it’s no surprise that there aren’t enough ports for everything. This hub helps optimize your workspace by providing four extra USB ports to connect accessories – simply plug it into your computer’s USB-C port. Transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps move files quickly and efficiently. Its compact size makes it perfect for slipping into a purse or backpack. You really can do it all with the Insignia NS-PCHC4A 4-Port USB-C Hub.
 
Must buy! Great band for your buck! A+++++

Best device car plan available on Apple products. If you purchase a product made by them, you should purchase Total Tech plan and it comes with it versus paying over $100.00 for the plan to have device repaired or replaced at local authorized Apple repair center. Also if damaged, it states two price options that applies and you can receive a new or repaired device, if screen is shattered or laptop fell into water accidentally.

Will need to return the ebike and have new one shipped to store and have geek squad put it together and deliver it because it did not arrive with directions on how assembly and I took me several hours to attempt to place it all together without skipping steps.
Otherwise, very attractive and eager for the replacement to arrive and get assembled then delivered.

I use it for my Ring Outdoor Cameras and when motion is detected, it will chime the camera. I only use it for the cam in back with an alleyway. Great choices of “tunes” too.

With the Ring App there is usually a 5-10 sec delay from the time someone rings the bell and I get the notification. Will this help with the delay? Is it almost instantly?

Mine is instant notifications.

 Google - Nest Cam Outdoor security camera

Meet the Nest Cam Outdoor security camera. It stands watch 24/7, rain or shine. Plugs into power so you never have to worry about dead batteries. And sends an alert to your phone when it detects activity. It even lets you talk back through the Nest app. This is what an outdoor security camera should be.
 

Do this camera rotate

No but the range of view is impressive and shows I think it is 130 degree angle of video caption.

My nest outdoors worked great..even had picture of a criminal drive by. Since google took over my nest does not work at all...very disappointed

Yea, it’s tricky however I have no issues whatsoever and mine continue to work as they did before Google was in the picture.

Does the camera connect directly to either your modem or an extender? I can run ethernet cable to do this. I don't think my WiFi is strong enough.

Only takes 1-2mb upload speed to function as designed to go per each camera. No they do not have ability to plug into ethernet spot on back of modem.

I need to hook up a camera so people in two interior offices can see who is arriving at a front door they can not see. What do I need to be able to have the camera show up as a small Picture on computers in two separate offices?

On computers, you have to access website being home.nest.com and it takes full screen of browser. On the Nest app for phones you can. Or you can purchase two Google Home Hubs and sync the cameras to them which is easy and they can stream live with audio if placed on the desk.

Sustain the efficient performance of your monochrome laser printer with this Brother standard-yield toner cartridge. It's intelligently engineered for seamless compatibility with select Brother black-and-white laser printers and all-in-ones. This Brother standard-yield toner cartridge lets you print up to 1,200 pages of professional-quality documents.
 

How many pages will I get from 1 cartage?

The details area on the site states 1200 however I get about 1400 or so and this is my third one I just purchased on 01/02 and this toner is well worth the price!
