Did I really need this?
on August 14, 2017
Posted by: StuH
from AThens, GA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as it had the highest reviews online and worked with my Spectrum/Charter account.
Unfortunately, setup was not as easy as I would have liked as I had hoped as I have service through my apartment complex and so Charter had to send an engineer to install.
He installed another Charter/Spectrum modem by mistake and I had to ask him to come back and install mine.
After all was said and done, the new modem performs as well as the old one (60down, 4 up) and I feel that I might have gotten away not buying it.
Now I am stuck with it though as it is the only modem we now have.
Live and learn I guess.

The new Multi-Touch subsystem in the new iPad 9.7" and iPad Pro gives Apple Pencil striking capabilities alongside pixel perfect precision. Using incredibly sensitive pressure and tilt sensors, Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.

if you have an iPad Pro, you need this

Unfortunately part of the Apple tax is that they tend to forget to put in the box, things that should be included. This is one of them, don't even think about a purchase, you are not getting the full experience until you purchase this pen! I am not an artist and really thought about this purchase (assuming that I would just return it). Once I got it, I downloaded an app called Goodnotes and now my workload is totally paper free!
BUY IT!

Simple, Fast, Secure wifi

Verified Purchase:Yes
I spent a lot of time researching this product and although I really wanted to buy a highly recommend ASUS router, Best Buy did not stock it and I had $200 of gift cards to spend. I am glad this was the case! Simple to set up with advanced controls available, they look pretty and do the job incredibly well. I am a tech geek who spent a long time working for a large tech company and I have to say I genuinely love these!

Works great but expensive
on August 6, 2017
Posted by: StuH
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a well built, high-quality product. Annoyingly it isn't a Homekit sensor (although it costs the same as one) so it can only control Hue lights but it does so incredibly well. It knows when to turn lights on based on movement and how bright to make lights based on ambient light already. Was simple to set up in what I thought would be a complicated location (corner of the stairway) and I have yet to have any false positives!

Saves money and makes you look cool!

Verified Purchase:Yes
We just moved into our new apartment, so I decided to invest in all things Homekit including a bunch of Hue bulbs. They take seconds to set up, cost not much more than equal quality LED bulbs and are super cool. You can set these to turn on/off from a phone, or match the light or even set timers etc.

This Scosche dash mount holds the device safely, letting you concentrate on the road.

Solid grip but damages phone
on July 19, 2017
Posted by: StuH
Verified Purchase:Yes
This phone holder hasn't moved an inch since I installed it. Unfortunately it has pretty much destroyed the leather case on my phone as the fit is tight and there is no soft piece between the hard plastic and the device you put it. I'm confident that had I used my phone without a case it would have damaged it!

Great case, but didn't fit iPad Pro gen 2

This case is really impressive and seems to be tough and well made. Unfortunately it didn't actually fit my iPad Pro (gen 2) and they don't make one for it. Would recommend if it fits your device!

There is always a chance that you might break your beloved new Apple device and AppleCare+ covers the cost of two repairs and costs less than one!

Do you need a separate router with this?

Yes, it only has 1 Ethernet port and no wifi.

I have suggested the router we use with this modem, it is amazing.

Would this interfere with my Sonos system??

I am using a few other wireless networks in the home (Airplay, Philips Hue, etc) and have yet to have any connection issues.
