Access important files at home and on the go with this Seagate Personal Cloud STCR5000101 external USB and Ethernet hard drive, which offers a personal Cloud with a 5TB storage capacity for secure file sharing, streaming and remote access.

Well being I.T. I really had high hopes for this for a mid size home network, streaming numerous t.v.s as well as other connections. Unfortunately this device would only be seen if connected to the main router and not the switch as my other cloud/back up drives had in the past. which is pointless since all other computers/tablets etc on on the switch etc. I thought maybe the firmware update would help but it that was not the case. Returned this item after getting no useful help from Seagate stating what I wanted to do was impossible! Purchased the Western Digital my cloud and everything connects and does what it is suppose to do.. Very disappointed in Seagate as I have I have used them for many many years!

Well this things rocks and is worth every penny! set up a breeze, included open DNS is a big plus makes configuring your home network effortlessly for anyone! My only small issue as of yet net gear does not have firm ware in place to allow you to log in the interface via the ip.. address to change the hard settings such as passwords, and WiFi names etc. Did most of the set up on WiFi tablet, which s okay, Net gear genie app has same limitations as far as hard settings as well, not sure if it's a Windows 10 issue or not, but other than that Net gear is aware of the issue and is working on a fix! Overall a definite great purchase and a must have for great sped and home networking

Using this Audiovox CMOS2 rear observation camera's wide-angle lens, you can easily view what's behind your vehicle in selectable normal and mirror image views, enhancing safety. Five mounting options make the camera easy to install.

needed to replace/update the camera in out 99 Chevy express, Camera itself is pretty simple to install, however a bit more info on extra items would be nice. (i.e. only 70" of cable) not saying I think the item should come with 20 foot rolls but knowing what other options would/would not work would of save a lot of time. ended up using a 15 foot Sub-woofer RCA cable for the run Geek squad suggested) since best buy does not carry any single RCA video cables over 6'! they have all 3 in 20 foot sections but the cost and the extra wires not worth it. (actually in this van should of went 20 feet.) camera looks good, but after I washed the van the first time the next day i noticed a foggy view, looking at the camera looks like moisture got in some how? returned it and installed the replacement, not wanting to take a chance i ran a small bit of silicone around the rim prior to taking of the protected film covering.
this would be great for a smaller application/vehicle, even the Geek squad guy was confused why I needed such a long cable. I was like just running the cable through the rear door into the harness area took almost all of the supplied cable. the van from front bumper to rear bumper is about 16 feet long, and to run the cable correctly, actually the only way the supplied cable was way to short.

We purchased this BlueRay DVD player to replace our old outdated one. We are very happy with how fast it loads movies and the ease of navigation, plus all the added features. However, we have noticed issues with the wireless internet connection. Most of the time it is fine, but occasionally we have to go into the settings and reconnect. Also, it is sometimes slow to load videos from YouTube, etc. All in all though, a good DVD player for the money.

steps to try

If your wireless drops occasionally it usually means to many other wireless devices have tried/or are connected causing conflicts, either change the address on your router or assign a permanent address. if not the only option would be to hard wire it with a ethernet cable

extra info
April 2, 2015
forgot to add that if you are have loading problems that again is a sign of to many wireless devices, Also to stream basic content in SD format you need at least 9 MB internet at a minimum. wireless you would probably want more like 18+ MB as packets tend to get lost over the air. Hard wire is by far the best option for any streaming device!

Will it play BD-ROM
Hi
I have bought recently BD -H5900 in Newyork, Will it play DVDs and BD-ROM in India,
Or it will play only registered medias which can be played in US only.

Typically DVD/BD-rom players will only play disk for the region they are sold in, most likely this will not play disk that are not set to the US region

Will this play 2D blu-ray discs?
I know this has 3d capabilities, but will it play 2d movies?

How do you hook it up to a non smart TV?
I have wireless network in my home, but my TV is an older Samsung and on the back panel the slots are DVI1 and DVI2. How can I hook the Samsung BD-H5900 up?
That is a good question, not sure, what you describe seems more like a Monitor than a TV? as DVI's are typical monitor hook ups, I suppose there may be a adapter of some sort if you searched it. like the image I posted . Curious how /what you have hooked up to it now. i.e cable box etc.
