    They throttle video streaming services and that's not cool. There customer support is also really bad so there's that.

    steinikekevin got a reaction from leadeater in is ubiquiti any good?   
    I just recently purchased a ubiquity Edge Router X. So far so good, though I don't plan on using any of its 'controversial' features. I have had issues with my internet connect for months, (intermittent outages) that my ISP claims is on my side of the modem. I know that the ER-X isn't a 'professional' level device, but i needed to replace my router anyway to try and solve my woes, and $50 for a stand alone device to 'route my network' is a win in my book. As many have said on this thread already, its a solid upgrade from most consumer gear, and that is why I bought it for my home. (sorry this was sort of off topic, but wanted to throw my $.02 in anyways.)

    Back when I sold computers at a box store we offered a file transfer service, and many customers liked to take advantage of it. Most of the older women were only ever concerned about losing their facebook stuff. Trying to explain that Facebook info is stored in 'the cloud' to a 90 year old lady buying a $200 emachines laptop, that took patience...

    Hi,
    What's your networking/internet setup? Me? I have the main router downstairs, and this messy, but somehow working, setup. It does very well.

    I would say run them in a PVC pipe to stop them from getting cut if you start digging in that area

    As you make the pipe you can run as many cables there as you want.
