Are you connected to 2.4 ghz or 5 ghz?
I guess 2.4 can that be changed? I've already asked for enough help though, I'll try to figure it out from what you guys already posted (y) :) it's on 5GZ

What is the speed that you are paying for? If we know that you are supposed to be getting say 500 Mbps download, with 250 Mbps upload, then we can make a better determination as to what is happening. The built in WiFi on your laptop is capable of 300 Mbps download (it is wireless N), and can hook up to a 5 GHz band. Check your bill and see if it shows what speeds you are supposed to be getting.

We're paying for the fastest FIOS available 5ghz ? but where would I find how many Mbps ? our bill? Oh I see Check the bill Duh Edit I'll have to wait a little bit, Kathy knows where the bill is and I got her sick so she's Not being very nice right now and I don't want to interrupt her Indian Bollywood movie :LOL:
 
Got an 850 HP Holley for $200
Morel mint SBC solid lifters for $50
3 sets of Manly roller springs inc. ti-retainers and locks with one set for $20 for all 3 sets of springs.

Same guy sold a 9" Ford housing, a complete Dana 60 with LPW cover and a set of ladder bars for $450.
If I could have used it I would have owned it but I don't have a tubbed car.

I like days like this at swap meets.

MADE A MISTAKE ON THIS HOLLEY: it's not an 850hp but a 1000hp. I ran the number 80513-1 and that's what it came back with. I am stunned and I just blueprinted this new to me carburetor today. Can't wait to try this out on something. The last 1000hp I had and sold made 802hp on the dyno and was running lean. That one had the A/D boosters.

I wanted to have another source of heating my house and stumbled on this wood pellet stove.
Currently I have a heat pump and propane fireplace for when the temp gets below 30 degrees.
The #1 issue stopping me from using wood was the extreme high price of installing a chimney.
These new pellet stoves are so efficient, they don't need a chimney. Just run a vent through the wall and you're done.
This is normally $1750 but Bed, Bath & Beyond had a 20% off sale so it was $1500 including tax.

I didn’t watch the vid but does it need a double wall vent pipe to let fresh air in and heat exhaust out like a gas water heater? Oh and very nice looking stove 👍👍🙂
