Powerful Mesh Router, Simple to Install
on August 22, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
The Linksys Atlas mesh router was absolutely simple to install. Once upon a time it was much more difficult to install a router and ensure it was working. Basically, with this Linksys router you install an app on your phone and then you flow seamlessly through the install. There are steps that take a few minutes and a message does pop up to essentially say ‘be patient’. I realized that the software is gathering a lot of information and does establish all your settings – so just be patient. You do receive a little setup card that indicates the color and blink status of the setup progress, so it is smart to use this card so you can see the progress. Once the light turns solid blue you are done. This system has three nodes so you will repeat the process for each node. It was the easiest process I have ever used. I actually put one node only 15 feet from the base node and the software popped up with a message saying ‘…are you sure you don’t want to place this note further away…’ – now that is amazing.
I connected this mesh system off a cable modem/router and established a second in-house network in order to balance resources. SpeedTest showed very little differential in speed from the cable modem/router WiFi versus the Linksys WiFi, so I am very happy with this Linksys system. The app also has an abundance of information on the devices attached and makes it easy to control your network.
You will want to put nodes on different floors if you like, or at least in different corners of the house. I do highly recommend this powerful and simple to use Linksys Mesh system.

Reduces Eye Strain and 1 ms Response Time
on August 19, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
This HD Monitor worked smoothly for all games I tried, it does have FreeSync technology. Key design point is the 1 ms response time - colors were very sharp and changed fast. I used a few monitor test programs like EIZO. I thought this monitor worked great under test and for games. One game where I saw ghosting on other monitors did not appear on this monitor. You should note that IPS monitors will be a little more vibrant color-wise, but the IPS monitors don’t achieve the 1 ms response time that enables the super fast pixel color changes you need in some games.
The unit is compact, solid and fits my desktop nicely to allow other monitors and my security camera display unit, phone etc. I did appreciate the Acer EyeProtect’s Flicker-less, Blue Light Filter – I did feel less eye strain; so that is another major design point I felt.
The 24 inch size was what I wanted so everything about this monitor including the price worked well for me. Excellent technology at this price point. I do highly recommend this monitor.

Well Made and Very Useful
on August 6, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
Very nice light source for multiple purposes. Indeed it does work nicely to make your appearance at online meetings much nicer. Most people have overhead lighting but with this device you get a clearer video both of facial and presentation boards (which are still used sometimes).
The construction is solid and the design points are excellent. You have 3 color temperatures, 5 brightness levels, flashing mode and the ability to utilize one, two or three light panels. It comes with a small remote which is essential for changing the controls of the light which you put behind your laptop while you sit in front of your laptop for example and observe the changes. You can also control the light from on board switches. It has a C-USB connector for recharging the long-lasting lithium batteries.
It comes with a small foldout which is all you need for directions. The documentation says you can use it without a tripod but it is not stable enough in my opinion. The base has the tripod camera standard mount and I used a medium sized tripod and that worked great.
I also used it above my pottery wheel and with my wood lathe and it greatly enhanced my visibility while working – so it has a lot of uses with its 162 LEDs. I do recommend this unit for online meetings and other lighting needs. Great product.

Sophisticated System, Easy Setup
on July 21, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
This system is simple to set up and my initial use has shown it to be rock solid. It came with 2 wireless 1080p cameras, however you can add more. The package comes with the base unit already having a 64 GB micro SD card. I like the SD card method so that you can remove the card and insert a different card each month or whenever you like. This preserves the data so it is not overwritten inadvertantly. Of course this means no monthly fees to store data and no potential exposure from storing data in the cloud.
The base unit contains a very clear 7” touch screen that is wonderful – sharp and has vibrant colors. The setup uses the base unit and your cell phone. You download the ‘Lorex Home’ app and this gives you another display which is also mobile. You can play prior videos or display the live views of either camera on the base unit or your cell phone. You can decide on notifications and other parameters, it's easy to do.
This system also includes a WiFi extender. I have found with prior wireless cameras, the farthest units will have trouble connecting sometimes. Lorex removes this exposure by providing a nice WiFi extender with this system. Again it is simple to add the extender to your system with a few steps after everything is already set up. I should note that the cameras did reach the base unit from my garage without the extender, however with the extender it appeared the live feed came up a little quicker. Also you can check that the cameras are using the extender or are using the base. The cameras did switch ‘automagically’ to the WiFi extender after I configured it – nice.
The quality of the devices, software and videos is excellent. The instructions are clear and guide you to get everything installed with no troubles. I noticed on the Lorex website that Lorex is very sharp in terms of clarity and I did make a call on a minor question and got an answer in minutes, very little wait time and excellent knowledge from the technician – tip of my cap to Lorex.
You will need to charge the batteries in the cameras. They are lithium, your amount of usage will dictate when you need to re-charge the batteries. The amount of charge is shown on your Lorex Home Center base screen for each camera; so it is easy to know when to charge them. You can remove the battery to charge or charge with the batteries installed in the cameras.
There are always tradeoffs between wired, fully wireless and wireless with power connections to the cameras. This type of unit requires no wiring – no power to run and no signal wiring to run. I find that this is a very easy way to get your security system setup. The sophistication of the Lorex system takes the installation complexity and virtually removes it. I do recommend this great system for its quality, ease of install, crystal clear videos and functionality.

Powerful, Well Designed and Easy to Setup
on July 12, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
The Arris Surfboard Max AX6600 was the easiest install of any router I have used. This router included a base and a satellite to ensure the WiFi coverage in your home is optimal by placing the two routers as needed in your home. You should locate the satellites on different floors or at different ends of the house. Both units are identical so you can configure either one as the base. The process via the cell phone guides you perfectly through the setup. I configured it in two ways. The initial way was as your only network and the second way was as a second router. Either way the installation went smoothly. The hardware is very solid and it came with two power supplies, two routers and one ethernet cable. Note the design of how you plug into the Arris routers is easier with a flat style ethernet cable as provided. If you need something simple to configure or if you like diving into the details, the Arris will work nicely for you. When connected properly there will be a blue ring of light at the bottom of the routers. During setup the Arris engineers used other colors to help you know the setup was on track.
In my situation I wanted to use this router to set up a second network off my existing network. My cable modem was a single box that included the modem and a router. I have over 20 devices that talk over WiFi so I wanted a situation where I could spread the connections over two networks. Normally you have to be very careful to ensure you do not have one network interfere with another due to DHCP setups. Bridging has to be done carefully. However the engineers and programmers at Arris get a tip of the cap for designing a simple way to make everything work perfectly. You can use their phone app whether you have a separate modem and separate router or a combined box like I have. The software asked me at one point if I had two units or a combined unit. All the steps after that included checking for new firmware and easily setting up your network. After you configure the base, you can then add the satellite. This package included one satellite unit, but you can add more easily using the app later. The app gives you many tools to investigate the status of your network. I loved the app, it was very well done, no bugs.
I checked the speeds and the second network which does piggy back off my internet provider’s modem/router is just as fast. I have to congratulate the Arris team for an excellent product that I highly recommend. If you have a large home or a home with a basement and 2 floors, this unit would be a great way to ensure complete WiFi coverage. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Solid Product and Nice Design Graphics
on June 26, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
This is an excellent little mouse. It fits nicely in your hand and the buttons are ergonomically placed for ease of use, including the scroll wheel. I use a bit larger mouse most of the time, however I found that it is really nice to switch up sometimes since I do have a little arthritis. The change of pace seems to allow me to use the computer longer and my hands don’t ache at all. So I have been keeping both ‘mice’ handy to switch up during my bill paying, email clearing etc. I did not use this mouse for gaming though.
I found the scroll wheel much smoother than most mice. My other mouse is rechargeable and this one is not. But the AA battery is projected to last a year, so there is no downtime to recharge; some folks may find this preferable.
My other mouse as well as this one uses a dongle versus a Bluetooth connection. I have found that this seems to connect better than Bluetooth so I do prefer the dongle even though it uses a USB port.
It has an on/off switch which I find a necessity, so that wireless mice battery life can be optimized. It is plug and play so there is no setup needed.
Lastly the graphics on this mouse are fantastic, it is kind of uplifting to see the nice designs of the Logitech Design Collection. I do see these cute mice as great gifts for birthdays and holidays since they are a bit of fun and are very accurate, ergonomic and very well made. I do recommend them.

Great for Facial Hair or Splinter
on June 16, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
This is one of several models of tweezers that the Tweezerman company sells. It is designed smaller and is an excellent tweezer. I should note I have other Tweezerman products and the design and materials are top-notch across all the Tweezerman products I have used. This tweezer out performs any tweezer I have owned before. The business end is hand filed to perfectly align. One target of course is facial hair and this tweezer securely grabs even the thinnest hairs for example eyebrows, beard and even slightly imbedded hairs; and it does not slip off so removal is guaranteed. The other use I had was for a splinter in my hand. Again, this tweezer helped to grab the very tiny and thin wood splinter and pull it out – great. I won’t buy any other brand of tweezer, the Tweezerman tweezers are the tops, my tip of the cap to the engineers.

The NVR connects to your internet router via the included network cable or Wi-Fi, while the new SwannNet technology allows you to select whether each camera connects to the NVR or your home Wi-Fi, meaning you can choose whichever network has a stronger Wi-Fi signal. This gives you greater flexibility to place the cameras where they need to be, and their robust indoor/outdoor design is built to withstand rain, snow and heat, all year round.

Complete Security System, No Monthly Charges
on June 2, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
The Swann WiFi Enforcer System is a complete security system that I found had all the right features. I would say to be careful to choose this exact system as other systems including some Swann systems don’t have all the features I found to be necessary. Let’s start with the WiFi connection. Wired cameras are very hard to install unless you have an ability to easily access a basement or attic to run the signal wires. So that is most important.
I have used a lot of battery powered cameras. Battery powered cameras create a very significant problem. Rechargeable batteries will get weaker over time and non-rechargeables mean a constant cost to buy new batteries. Most problematic is getting a ladder, removing the batteries and either replacing them or recharging them. Solar powered units help somewhat but my experience has been that eventually you have problems with weaker charging days or even weather disabling the solar power one way or another. This camera system uses 120 volt AC household current. There is some obstacles to getting the wired power to the camera, but once it is in, there is no need to get ladders anymore; you have a permanent and strong power source.
Next on my list of positives is the design of these cameras to includes sirens, lights, night vision, 4K hi def, 2-way audio, heat and motion sensing and free recording to a 1 TB drive. This system has all the functions you need in a complete security camera system.
The system components are indoor/outdoor except for the recording base unit. Hook up is very easy. I ran power to each unit, often just plugging into an outdoor outlet; for example on the front porch and back porch. However, I did mount a camera above the garage door and just had to run power through a hole in the siding which I easily sealed up. IN this case I installed a small shingled board to give the camera some added protection – although this was not really needed. You sync each unit to the base unit wirelessly – this is a great advantage so that your base unit can be inside preferably near your existing WiFi router. I connected the base unit using an ethernet cable to my home router. I could have connected the base unit via WiFi but I think wired connection is easy and best in this situation. What was nice is that everything worked right away, no finagling to make things work – great.
I added the HDMI cable to my TV and all cameras came online and displayed on the screen. There are quite a few options you can select, but basically you have the ability to see all cameras or just one on your screen. Interesting that you can connect each camera via your house WiFi or just connect each camera wirelessly to the base unit. It does suggest that if you want to turn the base unit off, simply shutdown the system like you would a PC. In fact the TV will show your connection as a PC in the source selections. The unit comes with a mouse that attaches to the base unit for your navigation.
Performance was superb. Clean and crisp color or black/white night vision. Now I have a system without monthly charges that records events from 4 positions around the house back and front and sides, and also provides security alerts via sirens, lights and recordings. I highly recommend this unit. The Swann engineers did a fantastic job on this system.

Excellent Sound for Compact BT Speaker
on May 30, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from New Smyrna Beach, FL
This portable speaker has superior sound for its size. It was easy to pair with cell phone or laptop or TV. The build quality is solid and the rubbery-grippy feel is helpful to ensure it is easy to move even when wet. It is IPX7 waterproof, however the charging port is open which makes me hesitate to leave it unprotected in a heavy rain much less submerge it.
The controls are intuitive and these controls allow you to pause/play, adjust volume and sync Bluetooth. The pause/play button is a multifunction button and can control functions like answer/end a call, fast forward and even connect to a voice assistant. It is very handy to use the multifunction button if connected to a cell phone. You should install the Soundcore App. The app will permit equalizer settings and also allow you to power off the speaker from your cell phone.
The phone app also provides a way to update the firmware. The device was sent to me with a note saying to update the firmware to V0.11. The phone app did update the firmware. At first it did not work, however I called Anker support and they responded promptly. When I tried the app again it did work to update the firmware.
The price point is low for such a robust little speaker. You can party-cast as well to over 100 speakers – wow! I still find it easy to recommend this little marvel for its audio power. I do have a big brother to this speaker which does have more bass, but the size tradeoff is something many folks will like since it can be carried to the beach or to the garage with ease. Great product.

Great for Small Area
on May 30, 2021
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Raleigh, NC
This air purifier is really small which makes its usage more for a closet, small bathroom or a car. It is easy to clean filter. Also it is rechargeable and will last all night on low speed. I recommend it for small areas that need a little boost in air quality. One use I found that works great is to put it on its highest speed in a bathroom, spray a little air freshener and let it run 15 minutes - very nice results. Excellent little product, fairly priced.

After setup was complete, the computer suffered many glitches, both in hardware and software. E.g. the computer kept disconnecting from my Wi-Fi and I had to go in and retype the password. Computer locked up several times and I had to unplug it to shut it down so I could reboot it. Much of my software apps displays were incredibly small and I could find no way to change them. These were just a few of the most glaring examples.

You Can Change Size of Objects & Text
December 27, 2015
The ultra HD display can be adjusted. Go to Settings, System (Display is in there), Advanced Display Settings and change the resolution to 1920x1080. Then continue on to Advanced Sizing of Text and Other Items; now click on 'Set a custom scaling level' (blue text) and select 110%. Now everything will be correct. Most apps don't work well with the Ultra HD yet. But your machine will be powerful as new Apps come out. Once the machine updates to latest Windows 10, you will find it great.

1 out of 5Great Product at First
By Merv
Worked great in the beginning but had trouble keeping battery power and is dead now and will not recharge. Also not easy to clip on. The band included to wear on your wrist is 4" thick at least and not practical. It would have been better to purchase on of the wrist versions versus the one. I hope Best Buy will allow me to exchange due to the default.

FitBit One Wide Band
January 22, 2016
You do realize the wide band is ideal for sleep monitoring as it is very comfortable on the wrist all night. It is not a watch band. Also various suppliers make a band that the Fitbit One can snap into and then it can be worn as a watch. SO if you like the Fitbit otherwise, just get the watch band for it.

little support from Fitbit regarding syncing problems as module appears to be not always functioning during sync. No real solutions received that are workable. Long time getting responses from Fitbit.

Syncing Fitbit One
January 22, 2016
I noticed trouble syncing and it seemed if you have the application open and the Fitbit is connected to your PC, then it won't sync with your phone and vice versa. Not sure if that is an error or the design. Once application closed on PC now the phone sync'd in a couple seconds. So maybe this is what some people are seeing?

This AIO has superior resolution to others. Some reviews spoke about a text problem, however you can improve the text via going to settings, display, advanced and 'cleartype text' and follow the steps. Also has 3D display capability which is good for future needs for me. Sound is nice with Jensen speakers. Touch screen is great. WIFI is super and has both 2.4 and 5 GHz ranges with Wireless AC. Very quiet fan. Lenovo support has regressed but is do-able I asked a simple question and the tech had no idea, also the website seems broken in the support area; glad I got Geek Squad. But this AIO is one great machine. price is very reasonable for what you get. Love it.

Intel Has Fix for Display Errors
March 7, 2016
Here's good news after I called and got an update from Lenovo support. The problem of getting errors such as "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered..." seems to be fixed. But the Lenovo support site does not have the driver version to install since it is still in 'maintenance' or Beta test. However you can get the driver from Intel for their 530 graphics hardware at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25620/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40-6th-Gen-?v=t
The driver version is 20.19.15.4352 (you're probably using 4300). Now if you download the driver and run the driver install as you normally do under Windows it will say either you are already at the most current driver level or that your manufacturer has not ok'd the use of this level. But the Lenovo tech helped me install it. Basically you need to go to Device manager, select the Intel HiDef Graphics 530, and click to update the driver. Select to install from your computer and say you have a disk and then select the folder where you unzipped the new 4352 driver stuff. Now it will install this driver. I have not seen the display driver error message any more so it appears that this driver fixes things. I had tried all kinds of combinations of settings for the NVDIA driver (there are two display drivers) in conjunction with the Intel driver thinking that the interaction caused the problems. But hopefully this driver level will work. Call Lenovo if you don't want to try to install it yourself.

3 out of 5Good but some issues
By Mike944
The 4K screen is what sold me. However, it has a lot of glare and not as stunning as you would think for it being 4k display. Also, the video card seems to crash and recover randomly. The system stays on and it recovers well on its own, but it seems to do this regularly nonetheless. Also the keyboard is a very flat, chiclet laptop style keyboard with next to no key travel, resulting in a lot of typing errors. I do not care for this type of keyboard. Otherwise, the performance is pretty snappy with no lag and Windows 10 is a huge improvement over 8.

Graphics Card Problem Fixed
March 19, 2016
I had the same problem with video card crash and recover. Finally a fix is available I have it installed for 2 weeks and not a single error. You have to download a driver from Intel for 530, it is level 20.19.15.4352 You cannot get it from the Lenovo support site because it is a Beta driver. I stumbled into it because I called IBM support and happened to get a tech who knew about it. Go here to find the driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/88345/Intel-HD-Graphics-530-for-6th-Generation-Intel-Core-Processors Now you need to update the driver but the normal procedure ( go to driver tab in Device Manager...) will result in a message saying you can't install this driver... But if you go to the Device Manager and then right click the device then click on 'update driver software', then flow through browsing on your computer and say 'have disk'... and point where you unzipped the file; it will install it. If you can't weave through the steps just call Lenovo and the tech will show you or Best Buy Geek will show you. I've tested it and it works fine, great not to see those video crash and recovered errors.

1 out of 5Good Computer BUT
By BBPurchaser071
After purchasing, the specs on the graphics card is GTX 950A, NOT A 950.Looking up the specs of the 950A, here is what is on NVIDA site: We recommend the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950A for gaming with highest details at resolutions up to, and including, 1280x720. Why would they put in a graphics card in a 4K monitor that can only support great quality up to 1280X720. Taking it back to store.

This PC has Two Graphics Cards
June 5, 2016
You make a good point. This PC has two graphics cards and the other is the Intel HD 530 but I see it recommends only up to 1366x768. I know the display is supposed to handle 3840x2160 and you can select this setting and it works fine. I'm wondering if the limits on each card are overcome because you have both graphics cards? Maybe the manufacturers just undershoot the real capability? Anyway my Lenovo AIO 700 works great and I love it. For the money it is the best deal. I do know that you have to install a new driver for the HD 530, make sure you have 20.19.15.4352 (this is a Beta driver you can get from Intel) If you don't get it, you will get frequent from the HD 530.

1 out of 5Worst Computer Ever
By Disappointed
This computer is very aesthetically pleasing and has great specs. The 4k screen is very nice and the accessories work great.
However...
1.
This computer constantly is crashing citing a graphics card error. Simply browsing the internet or typing a Word document and the screen will constantly be crashing.
2.
The computer will not let me install updates and programs are constantly freezing and crashing. The only programs I have installed are Kaspersky protection suite and Microsoft Office suite.
**One day I turned on my computer and attempted to create a Word document only to find that the computer had deleted the entire office suite! There is no trace it ever existed.
3.
Simple tasks such as opening a program take a ridiculous amount of time. For a solid state hard drive, opening Windows Explorer takes on average 5 MINUTES!!! I have nothing saved on this computer!

Display Error Problem Fixed
August 12, 2016
I once worked at Lenovo & IBM and know a little about display drivers. The problem here is Lenovo's support site recommends the wrong driver level for the Intel 530 Display Driver. All you need to do to automatically fix this is use the Intel Driver Update Utility. Download it and it will show a list of recommend driver updates. For starters just choose the display driver update. At this time it will install level 20.19.15.4463 -> all your problems will go away. You can also let it install any other drivers it may find are down level. It is great. Here is the link to download the utility: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24345/Intel-Driver-Update-Utility By the way, for this computer to allow stuff I use like Windows Live to look better, I change the screen resolution to 1920x1080 and set the text scaling level to 110%. At the price, this is a super wonderful computer but need to make the changes I suggest.

This is a steal especially at the sale price. Beautiful touchscreen display, quad core processor albeit not the fastest but 4 cores and made by Intel so not power hungry. Dual Band AC WiFi which is important. Also very solid build, great keyboard. Only thing that slowed it down was 5400 rpm 500GB HDD. Some reviews said slow and it was a bit, but pop in an SSD and it flies super fast. You can use a free program like EASEUS to clone the HDD exactly to the SSD, including the recovery partition etc. Now you keep the old HDD as your instant backup image if needed. 4GB memory appears to be enough. Great function as tablet or tent or normal PC. Very portable which was one of my needs. If you want to step up, get HP's 13.3 inch same as this just bigger, 6GB memory but same tired old 5400 rpm drive problem but you can fix that with an SSD; and this more expensive one has a 6th gen core i3. I couldn't afford the bigger one, but I also liked the smaller 11.6 display anyway. Both have IPS display technology - great.

SSD Can be Swapped in Here's How
August 13, 2016
I did see the instructions you refer to and they are for an x360 Notebook. It is confusing, as this PC is an x360 2in1. HP does take you to the wrong place. But I looked further and HP does provide a Hardware Maintenance Manual for the x360 2/1. It shows you exactly how to get inside and replace anything from the battery to memory to the HDD. I will paste in the link to the manual and it shows you each step. But I'll give you an overview. You do have to be careful but it is not too difficult. First before removing anything I used a free program called EASEUS Backup which cloned the 500 GB HDD to a 500 GB SSD (it makes it identical including the recovery partition). You do need a USB cable to attach the SSD to a USB port on this PC to make the clone. Then basically you remove 12 screws on the bottom and flip it face up and gently pry the keyboard up first at the hinge end. Don't pull the keyboard off all the way as you have to remove two flat cables from their ZIF connectors. ZIF connectors are easy to release but you do have to notice which side of the connector that you flip up. It is easier if someone holds the keyboard up slightly while you release the ZIF's. I was able to do it myself. Once the keyboard is off, you remove 2 screws from the HDD (it says 4 but I only saw 2 screws) and also another ZIF cable to release the HDD from the board. You will have to take the bracket and the cable plug off the hard drive and put them on the SSD. Then reverse the process. I did read that things like memory are not accessible but the HMM also shows you how to remove a shield a small board and boom there is the single 4GB memory card. You can put in an 8GB memory card but I didn't since the SSD gives you tremendous speed improvement that the memory upgrade will only give you slight improvement. Now the link to the 90 page Maintenance & Service Guide (I also saved it to my desktop): http://support.hp.com/us-en/search?q=HP%20Pavilion%20x360%20m1-u001dx%20maintenance%20and%20service%20guide&filter=&product=11084072&pname=HP%20Pavilion%20x360%20m1-u001dx%20(ENERGY%20STAR) If you are concerned, BBuy should be able to do it for you with your cloned SSD for a small fee. There are lots of videos of people doing this level of stuff on the smaller 2/1 laptops, tablets and cell phones that seemingly are not accessible.. I did watch one on ZIF connectors.
