    Weird issue with Disney Plus

    Is there any way to force the ATT box to issue all new IPs to all my devices? Or is that not a possible issue? Thing is Disney plus works on Roku TVs and apple TVs in other rooms in my house. Actually I haven’t tested my other Apple TV since this issue started.

    Looking to add wireless access point

    Because my smart plugs are $5 per. "Something modern" would cost easily 5x that. My purchasing decisions are always economically driven. Give me 80% of the value for 20% of the cost and that's the product I will purchase 100% of the time.

    Looking to add wireless access point

    I heard on a podcast that if you have "g" devices on your networks that it takes everything down to "g" speeds. I have a number of exceptionally economical (read : "cheap") smart plugs - are those potentially dragging my wifi network down? Should I rig up a separate access point for those...

    fifty per. 100 for a pair. Still...that’s a better price than most I’ve seen.

    https://www.att.com/buy/accessories/internet-equipment/airties-att-smart-wi-fi-extender-white.html Are these aggressively bad? I like that they are set up for my service and they're much less expensive than other mesh routers - I assume that means there is a performance hit but I don't think I...

    Looking to add wireless access point

    Thanks for your extremely insightful help on this topic - it is very much appreciated. okay can you help me visualize this "donut" concept? The Archer A7 is currently wall mounted with the antenna sticking up (parallel to the floor / ceiling). Should they be pointed towards the floor? Or one...

    Looking to add wireless access point

    my current AP is wall mounted about a foot from the ceiling but surrounded by various cooking gadgets - I'll tell my wife to move the metal ones to the other side of the pantry and see if that makes a difference.

    Looking to add wireless access point

    lack of familiarity does orientation matter? my WAP is mounted on the wall - ceiling mount would be a minor pain but doable.
