I purchased this remote start/alarm system for my 2005 chevy silverado duramax. It works exactly as intended. Love the customizable features. Was able to program heated seats to come on when temp is below 40 degrees. Nice function for an older truck!!

Using with SmartTv to stream Espn3.

Picked this up for a smartTV that I got as a gift to fill in the gaps the tv couldn't stream such as Espn3. All macs in our house so the ease of use isn't comparable to an AppleTV but for my office it works exactly for what I wanted and as intended. No issues.

Bought this mount for a toshiba 50" led smart tv. Install was painless and simple. Like the confirmed clicks when it attaches to the mounting plate. Template made drilling locations idiot proof. :)
Solid product. After installing several of the Rocketfish and Sanus brand mounts I have to say hands down Rocketfish makes much better quality products and easier to install.

Excellent remote for this price

Excellent remote for this price. We replaced a very complicated universal remote by Osiris with this remote and had it doing things we never were able to get the osiris to do in just a few minutes.
Website is a bit slow to load initially for programming but after that it is really quick and adding functions is quick and painless.
Miss: The function or mode buttons you program are not backlit. All other buttons are and it is motion activated instead of fumbling for a light button.

Need a classroom projector to use with a Smartboard and also show movies on big wall screen . Any suggestions?
Epson models around $500 are perfect for this. Too bright for home theater but work great for presentations and movies thrown on the wall.

How do you submit a rebate request for Epson 5030 bought from best buy. There isn't anything on my receipts
My rebate was through Epson direct. I don't recall seeing any BestBuy rebates on Epson projectors. I think Epson controls pricing floors very strictly and any rebates are done in house. Might check with them.
Fwiw my rebate from them included a free replacement bulb and both the check and the bulb arrived in a couple of weeks after I submitted my paperwork. I was shocked it was processed and returned so quickly.

WiFi speed up to 3.2Gbps and 6 high performance antennas provide maximum speed and range. Smart Connect allows you to game, stream, and download mega-sized files without lags.
Less dropped wireless signals
I can only get 1.5 mbps from CenturyLink at our house (I can't seem to get an answer from CL why this is so). I have the combination modem/router from CL. Using my laptop wirelessly in another part of the house, my connection seems to be turned off and on erratically. Buffering is very slow and frequent when I watch movies. Will this router improve my internet situation?
Short answer: Absolutely!!
Like anything in life that comes in a combo your modem/router combo is really good on the modem side and totally sucks on the router side. Get the NetGear router and make sure to have your current router turned off so they aren't interfering. I'm certain you will no longer have any connection issues. For years I fought this with ATT combo modem/routers and constantly had weak signal issues as well as printer connectivity issues. Finally a technician for HP recommended a third party router and since that day no more issues. That was 2010 fwiw. My current home has 24 connected devices to the NetGear Nighthawk and it performs flawlessly. Of the 24 I have an iMac, 2 matchbook pros, 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, 2 printers, 5 directv boxes, a ps3 and several smart tv's connected to it. I'm certain I have left out some but you get the idea. :)

How about DSL
does anyone know how the Nighthawk R8000 on DSL
I can tell you it works fantastically on both UVerse Max Turbo 24mb and HughesNet which is probably slower than your DSL. Coverage area is best on the market for signal strength. You can always got to a cat6 cable from the modem to your router as this can potentially be a choke point for data transfer.

Earlier Version
We have this remote which we bought around 5 years ago. It is glitchy and does not work well to say the least. Looking on all the websites, it seems that this remote is one of the best universals out there. Has anyone had an earlier version of this model and noticed improvements with this one? Could we have just gotten a lemon? I am hesitant to buy the same model since we have had so much trouble with our current one. Thanks!
Definitely return it. I have two of these and they work flawlessly. For the price I can't imagine why anyone would pay more to do the same things.
Could possibly be the setup if you didn't fully complete each method.
The website to setup can be a bit slow to load but once it loads it works pretty quickly through the steps.

Rebate Offer
Is the current Epson mail in rebate offer for a replacement lamp for the 5030UB or 5030UBE valid for a projector purchased at Best Buy?
Yes! I received my replacement lamp about 4 weeks after I submitted the rebated form.

are there projectors that do not need a computer?
While many speakers have a PowerPoint presentation, either on disc or flash drive, sometimes a speaker has a disc or flash drive made on some other program. Do projectors exist with built-in software independent of computer?
Yes. Most presentation style projectors have a usb drive where files can be displayed. You can toggle through the slides using the remote for the projector. Epson makes a great one for around $400 that I use weekly for presentations. Epson VS330 is the model.

How do I set up my cox cable box so I can watch it through my projector?
Is your cox cable box hd? If so run the Hdmi cable that would go to your tv to your projector. If you have a receiver run the Hdmi cable there and then the out Hdmi cable to your projector. Sound is your only variable.
