Great IDEA, ok setup, signal issues
on March 16, 2018
Posted by: Techuser
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
A router with built in security ? What a great idea. Does that mean I don’t need security software on my computer ? no so fast.
Personally I would recommend keeping antivirus/maleware/.etc protection on our computer. Things can get through via email, zip files, or plugged in (USB drive). This router is suppose to stop attacks coming from the internet
With more and more devices connected to the internet: refrigerator, door lock, IP cameras, TV, tablets, cell phones, printers, speakers etc. these all don’t have protections. So a router like this is needed. Can you imagine someone hacking your networking unlocking your front door or opening your garage ?
Setup was ”ok” .. took sometime to things connected to the router.
Connection was not as strong as my current router
So I ended up connecting my other router to this one..

No Drops.. works

If you’re looking for a Wifi range extender look no further.. The Linksys RE9000 works great.. I’ve been using this extender for about a week now and have connected about 10 different devices and ran 5 different devices at the same time.
I’ve had Neflix on one device (TV), Amazon prime video on another (Notebook), Youtube running on another (Tablet), and cell phones (IP calling) running all at the same time with no issues.

Unique speaker must have for kids.
on March 12, 2018
Posted by: Techuser
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
There are a lot of portable Bluetooth speakers available in the market. Most have the same feature like this Sony SRSXB31 such as water and dust proof, dynamic bass, ability to connect/pair multiple speakers together, etc. But the SRSXB31 has a few things I haven’t seen, 24 hour battery life with the ability to connect and charge device, light effects, and party Booster basically you can hit the speaker in different areas and it will play different sounds.
The light effect in my opinion is pointless unless you have multiple speakers. Glad you can turn off the lights from the speakers and not have to use the app.. The Party Booster is something my kids loved playing with.. its like portable drum set. They marched around the house playing their music and hitting the speakers..
Overall build quality is solid.. Feels like it can with stand a drop on a hard surface.. Definitely would recommend this to anyone.

Sony Walkman Headphones
on March 11, 2018
Posted by: Techuser
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
Not a very good first impression. The headphones feel very cheap like its going to break every time put them on.
If you remember back in the 90s the Sony Walkman headphones.. These feel just like that. Not just the weight and build, but how it fit on your heads and the sound.. Sorry this a miss.

Disappointed.. just a light bulb
on December 12, 2017
Posted by: Techuser
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
Right now its just a light bulb on my desk. you need to purchase the Hue Bridge.. This isn't not mentioned in the title or in the product features.. The product itself is just a light bulb with a cover over it. Very simple. There isnt an on/off switch so you have to unplug it to turn it off.

I love this speaker.. The Google Assistant is what tips the scale. Easy setup with my phone and im off saying “OK Google” …….
The fact that its portable is a real plus.. The garage, living room, bathroom/shower, etc.. I don’t need my phone nearby, just a wifi connection. “Ok Google” turn off/on blah blah.. play my music, whats the weather, whats my schedule etc.. awesome

Fantastic blender for the price. Can do everything a $500 and up blender can do.
The blades are not sharp. So it is surprising it can blend things so well.. I guess its the powerful motor. Also, clean up is easy and doesn't pick poke or cut my fingers.

Easy install and App

from Los Angeles, CA, USA
I've only had this unit for a few days now and i love it. It was easy to install if you know what your doing and the app works well. I love the fact i can program and/or schedule heat or AC.
The only thing i have issue with is the Wifi connection. Not sure if its my router or the unit but in the beginning it would not connect to my router. Regardless its working well and i haven't had a problem with it since.

Overall its an OK system. At times, the cameras will loose signal. When it works its great.
I like the 7 day rolling video storage. I just download the video on my computer when needed.
Here is the biggest problem if used outside someone at steal the camera if not bolted down.

This is not going to replace your blender, but provides a great alternative. Does the job that a blender can do however it can get messy when blending things.
I love the fact its compact and easy to clean. recommend this to anyone in the market for a hand held mixer/blender

When I use my computer the power adapter gets hot
When I use my computer, the adapter on the power gets so hot you cant touch it anymore. The computer is an HP is there a way to fix this? Do i just need to get a new power cord for it? It used to never do this before. The computer doesn't get hot, just the adapter.
Might be a defective adapter or under powered adapter. i would change it out and not risk it

broken audio jack?
I just bought a brand new Asus G60 two days ago. Got home one night and plugged in some speakers to the audio jack listened to some music,turned off the computer and unplugged the speakers.Now when I turn on the laptop I hear the start up sound but I dont hear any thing from my laptop speakers anymore,I only hear something when I plug in speakers or headphones to the audio jack..bad jack?
Sounds like a driver issue or software program. Try a factory reset and see if that helps
