Pretty solid, bad admin UI
on July 13, 2018
Posted by: brianarn
from Albuquerque, NM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall, this is working quite well for me. My house is a few thousand square feet, and positioning this router in a relatively central location, it's covering things quite well!
The admin UI is really rough, though. It's kinda slow and looks really, really dated. That being said, you don't need to be in there much.
Glad to have it.

At the center of the LEGO Multiverse lies an ancient planet that is inhabited by the evil mastermind, Lord Vortech. It is believed that the person who controls the Foundational Elements on which this planet is built will control all of the Multiverse.

One day, a mysterious and powerful vortex appears in a variety of LEGO worlds, and different characters from DC Comics, The Lord of the Rings, The LEGO Movie and more are swept away. Noticing their friends are being taken, Batman, Gandalf and Wyldstyle jump into the vortex on a journey they never imagined. Now, realizing Lord Vortech's intentions, the three intrepid heroes must venture through space and time to save their friends and all of LEGO humanity.After you've saved the day, expand your LEGO Dimensions experience with The LEGO Movie: Bad Cop Fun Pack. Featuring 62 buildable pieces, this Fun Pack plunges you behind the badge of another realm of the LEGO multiverse with Bad Cop and his Police Car.

I wasn't sure what I would think, and bought it more for my son than me. Turns out, I really enjoy playing as Bad Cop, and his vehicle has Tow capabilities out of the box, which is great.

The level is quite fun. I also love love love that I can be any of the four ghostbusters with this one figure. Using the trap is a little odd but overall it's such a great set that I don't even care.

Bane's vehicle brings about Drill, and Bane himself can become a big minifigure, so he brought a lot more utility than I expected. Very pleased.

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.

Best stylus I've used
on May 20, 2016
Posted by: brianarn
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've tried a handful of styluses (styli?) for iPads, and unsurprisingly, Apple's for the iPad Pro is wonderful.
I am going with 4 stars because I wish it had some sort of erase-type functionality, as they should be able to easily tell that I've inverted the pencil, but aside from that, I'm quite pleased with it.

Hard to know what more to say here. It's a really solid hard drive. I'm quite pleased with it. Great transfer rate, everything feels how I'd want it to. I haven't put it through some rigorous testing, but I don't really notice any lag, which I guess is about as much as one could want.

Does this replace a cable modem with voice phone?

No, this is a router only.

Mini/micro USB compatable?

I have a small Windows 8 PC that only has a miniUSB port (no standard size one). Will this drive work using a USB to miniUSB adapter?
It will likely work but it's unlikely that you'll retain USB3 speeds, I'd think. I'm not an expert, though.
