Also got rid of the bike. Boat is in the driveway and classic sports car is in the garage. Havenā€™t touched either in two yearsā€¦soā€¦they will probably be joining wherever yours went to.

Thatā€™s one thing I noticed with the wire (ethernet) vs wifi. The wifi has faster download speeds, but the ethernet has faster upload speeds and seems more stable. Sticking with the ethernet.

Iā€™ll fire up some bandwidth suckers all at the same time later tonight and re-run the test. Sounds like a fun experiment :laughing:

you got a point that for sure alexa know way too much i am sure lol

You also have to account for everything else on the network. TVs, phones, ipads, etc., that are pulling from bandwidth. Some people also have security cameras/systems, smart home devices, Plex servers, etc. and are just ā€œbarely getting byā€ with 500Mbs. My thought is get as high a bandwidth as you can comfortably afford.

Congrats on your decision. Come back and let us know how you like it after you use the Shield for a bit. As far as the boxes being Amazonized, we all hope that doesnā€™t happen.

thanks AMD237 forgot to ask any recommendations for a mini keyboard for the NVidia shield pro

Good box and never gets hot.

Where do I find the 10% Troypoint code and where do I order?

You can use coupon code TROYPOINT or it also looks like they are running a 15% for spring. Try both and see what sticks lol.

Just saw a Deluxe for $109 @ the storeā€¦if Troyā€™s 10% discount works there then itā€™s under a C noteā€¦you know if they charge for shipping? I got mine from Banggood a yr & a half ago & they had product here & up in Canada so it was quick & easy. Where did you get yours?

For my new box, av1 and Wi-Fi 6 are a must for me. Iā€™m not seeing many that have both or Iā€™m missing it. Best options?
