Daughter loves it
on March 25, 2018
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
The wife & I tested it out in store, really like the sound of it by comparison to the other speakers there. Ordered it online from Best Buy and had it shipped to the daughter's college. She really enjoys it, likes the sound of it. She hasn't tested the water-proof capability of it, prefers to leave it on the counter vs bringing it in the shower.

Definately a different album for them
on June 4, 2017
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
More soft/pop-ish. Good...but different. Closer to Minutes to Midnight than other albums in that regard. Album might grow on you, but just need to reshape your expectation if you were thinking it'd be a Hybrid Theory or something.

One of the longest level packs
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
Might actually be the longest level. Made we want to watch the movies again after playing it. I use Ethan as my primary character now. The motorcycle is a great vehicle, especially when you do the upgrades and get the flying version, etc.

Mr T - fixes & breaks things
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
Mr T unlocks the A team world which is fun for those that enjoyed that TV series 'back in the day'. Mr T does some fixing and when he does the master build routine, it is a fun montage like something when they are putting a plan together from the TV show. He also is handy for breaking walls. Good 80's fun.

A requirement for those wanting to get "100%"
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of those pieces that you need to get in order to reach certain areas. And the game level is fun. The one "problem" with this is that unlike other levels where you can start the replay of a level at a particular point, you can't do that with this level pack. The reason is that true to nature of the character, you are jumping around the level in time & space, so hard to be able to jump to a particular point in this case. Makes it a little bit harder (well, not harder...more time consuming) to get all the pieces collected inside the level. But a great addition, and need it to reach some of the collectibles in other levels.

Nice spin on the classic. Bobcat's character is great and of course Bill Murray is awesome. All of the ghosts are great characters. One of 2 movies I try to make sure I watch each Christmas

Portal in Lego form
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was one of my favorite add-ins for Lego Dimensions. The wit of GLaDOS is there, amusing dialog from Wheatley & Cave Johnson, the puzzles exist, just not as complicated as the actual Portal 2 game, but all good fun.

Great fun

I had Forza Horizon 2 and really enjoyed that game. Lots of different tasks/challenges to accomplish. Forza Horizon 3 continues on with the variety of challenges. You should be able to spend countless hours tackling the various races and trying to accomplish all the challenges that are presented. Just a solid, fun game.

Good, but not as much fun as Avengers
on November 18, 2016
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've played all the Lego games, and this one is good, just not as great or fun as Avengers or Jurassic World. The new "battle mode" for shooting was different, just not something I liked much. They're trying to keep things fresh, I get it. Just didn't add much to me.
The bits that kind of annoyed me was that after you're done with the main quests and chasing after all the various gold bricks, you'd be tasked to a mission that would take you away from the planet you were on, do the mission, then bring you back. So there were extra load times & waiting as a result. So, took me out of the game a bit when that happened.
Again, overall, a good game. You won't be completely disappointed. But if making a decision between this one and Jurassic or Avengers, I'd choose one of the others.

This ARRIS SURFboard cable modem uses DOCSIS 3.0 technology to ensure speed that lets you surf the Web and download videos, music and images with ease. The integrated wireless network (802.11n) is backward compatible with 802.11b/g access points
 

can i turn off the wireless capability of the modem and use a separate wireless router?

yes. I ended up doing that since the wireless on the unit was too weak for me (one floor up and about 15' over).

WIFI range

What is range of the wifi with this modem, can I go on the patio with it?
For me, it was a really weak signal. I've seen other reviews where they have experienced similar issues. I ended up getting a Linksys 1200 wireless router to use for the wireless portion. You can get a cheaper cable modem without the wireless portion built in then.

Can SBG6580 wireless modem be hooked to phone line internet instead of coaxial cable

No, it is a cable modem, not a dial-up modem
