Upgrade Your Wi-Fi!
on May 17, 2016
Posted by: Cipher469
Set up: I diligently followed the written set up instructions, but found myself in a loop that didn’t get me to the point where it could be completed. So, after several failed attempts, I called tech support for help. After a very short hold time, I was connected with Geri, who made my day. When I explained the problem, she assured me she could help. She asked me to make a wired connection between my laptop and the router (not mentioned in the written instruction). This immediately brought up the online set up process. Since I was now connected, I presumed that was the end of her help. Not the case: she took me through every step in the set up process. When that was done, she had me unplug to ensure Wi-Fi was fully operational, and it was. That was 5 Star service: short hold time; courteous, knowledgeable, and well-spoken service tech!
Product: This is a big router, and it delivers a big punch! Immediately after setup, I started connecting my myriad of Wi-Fi devices and had no issues. Range is excellent, but what really has impressed is how much faster I can connect my TVs (on the other side of the house) to streaming services (Netflix, Pandora, etc.), and the connection holds. With my old router, connecting and staying connected without start/restarts ranged from very good to abysmal. If your TVs are 4K UHD, upgrade to the EA9500 as it is designed to be compatible.
The EA9500 is an excellent product! That combined with excellent tech service makes a winning combination.

What a disappointment!
on June 18, 2015
Posted by: Cipher469
from St Petersburg, FL
Having neck pain, I ordered this with great expectations for a soothing experience. What I found was a large, heavy, cumbersome device with a cord of a length that required you be very near an outlet to use it. In addition, it did not at all provide a soothing experience; even on low speed it caused more discomfort than it eased. It was a complete disappointment, I will be returning it!

Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Very Pleased
on February 25, 2015
Posted by: Cipher469
from St Petersburg, FL
In my first step to cutting cable, I bought the Leaf 50, based on it's specs and customer reviews. I am well pleased! Installation and set up only took a few minutes, then a few minutes finding the right position for the antenna. The results are amazing....picture quality at least equal to digital cable; perhaps better than cable in some cases. Given the results, no complaint about the price either.

If you are a Sarah fan, add it to your collection. You won't be disappointed. If you are not familiar with her music, this CD is a good place to start. Lyrically and musically, this is Sarah doing what she does so well.....and it's currently at a good price.

Pleasant Surprise

Verified Purchase:Yes
I rated this CD a 5 because there was no "Very Good" option. Based on one song (Breathe) which I had heard some time ago in a movie, I bought the CD. Listening to it, I was not at all disappointed by the rest of the music. So, I guess I am now an Anna Nalick fan. Though different, listening to her reminds me a bit of Sarah MacLachlan, whose music I enjoy very much.

It's a good one!

It's good to have some new music from Jimmy. The songs cover a variety of music styles (whimsical, beer-drinking, thoughtful, etc.), which makes the CD interesting. There are a few cuts that I think can be Jimmy "classics," but you'll have to determine that for yourself. If you are a fan, you'll probably buy it anyway. But if you are on the fence, just go for it.

Very nice bag but could be better

Verified Purchase:Yes
For the most part, this is a great bag...especially for the price. Except for two issues, I would have rated it a 5. First, it could be just a tad roomier, allowing easier insertion/removal of the camera and have a bit more space in the storage area for batteries and the device cable. Secondly, the cover for the camera area opens from the rear, not the front. All camera bags that I have owned over the years opened from the front, so this is awkward. That said, I would recommend to a friend with the caveats cited.
What's great about it: Sturdy workmanship
What's not so great: a little short on space

A great range!

This range offered everything I was looking for (smooth top, convection, self-cleaning) and more. What sealed the deal was a terrific sale price - about 30% off! I have not tried all the features as yet, but so far everything meets or exceeds expectations. At first, I thought the storage drawer was too small; however, after I considered how much of the "stuff" I had been keeping (and never using) in my old stove, it turned out just fine. The range not only works well, it looks good, too. I am loving it so far. If there is a downside, it's the learning curve due to moving from a much older/simpler range, because guys don't read instructions, right? :-) In any event, it's worth it!

For those of you to remember the Guess Who, then you know Burton Cummings was the singer. I always liked his voice, and he has had a very successful career with it over the years. The music on this CD is an eclectic mix, and it works - touching a variety of emotions as it plays out. I haven't watched the DVD yet, but the music alone made this a good buy!
What's great about it: Pretty much everything.
What's not so great: One song that doesn't seem to fit, but hey.........

Great buy

Until I got someone to help me figure out how to get it to work, I thought it was worthless. However, after some education as to how to program a route, I was and continue to be very impressed with the device. Also, I got it at a great sale price, which helps excuse annoyance of the learning curve.
What's great about it: Works very well. Excellent features. Large screen.
What's not so great: Learning curve for the first time user

Stream HD audio from your TV to your headphones with this Aluratek Bluetooth 5.0 dual TV transmitter. It has a range up to 300 feet, which is four times the range of Bluetooth 4.2 transmitters, and you can easily connect the device to your TV via aux, RCA or SPDIF. This Aluratek Bluetooth 5.0 dual TV transmitter can handle two headphones at once.
 

How do you pair Bluetooth capable items an see that they have been connected sucessfully❓ Will the Bluetooth connections be seen on the TV screen after hooking up the audio receiver/transmitter❓

It doesn't show on screen, but the steady blue light on the device is an indicator. The best and easiest way to know is when you hear the TV audio coming through your headphones.
