Good coverage for multiple devices

Most Linksys routers offer a dependable connection, but when running multiple devices, this upgraded model is my pick. Easy setup as is, as well as custom configuration options.

With so many expensive wireless keyboard/mouse sets out there, it's nice to come across a basic set that does everything just as well. This one is low profile but not cramped. Same keys, same clicks, reliable name. No need to spend more.

I purchased this printer when my client became frustrated with her HP printer. It was easy to set up and all functions worked as expected. Since she likes to scan, having a separate scan icon appear during installation made the process all the easier.

Excellent Streaming Player
on April 7, 2015
Posted by: Hubbard54
from Wellington FL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've owned and/or set up a variety of streaming players and have found Roku to be one of the easier ones to use. Introducing it to your TV for the first time requires online access from another device. Just be sure to scroll through the pages top to bottom to find all required menu options (a frustrating oversight with the very first one I set up). I have had a problem with other-brand players overheating and freezing, but no such issue with the Roku so far.

There's just something about opening a bottle of wine. The ceremonial quality of removing the cork truly indicates it's time to unwind. Whether relaxing solo after a long day at the office or hosting an intimate dinner soirée or holiday party, the Oster® Silver Electric Wine Opener makes it easy to start the evening off in sophisticated style.

Pop goes the bottle

My sister was pleased to receive this cool gift for Christmas. That was until the second time she used it. It literally severed the neck of the wine bottle - snapped it right off. Hopefully, it was a fluke, since she's not the only one who received that "cool" gift from me.

I've been purchasing Netgear Powerlines for my clients for years, and they just keep getting better. Adding integrated wireless has made them all the better - no need to add an additional router. Set up is as easy as plugging them in.

External hard drives have come a long way. They're ultra portable and usually very reliable. Over the years, I have found the WD slims to have the lowest failure rate.

This is the 2nd Logitech touchpad keyboard I've purchased. Most of my TV viewing is via a computer hookup. I've owned other touchpad keyboards, all which have failed. Both of my Logitechs are still performing like new. One thing to be aware of...if you use damp fingers on the touchpad, the mouse cursor jump across the screen. It's not a defect.

Deliver your favorite playlist anywhere in your home with the Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device. Control most electric devices through voice activation, or schedule a ride with Uber and order a pizza. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device turns any home into a smart home with the Alexa app on a smartphone or tablet.
 

I purchased The Echo Dot for a gift. The party that received it can not get it to play any music. It does other functions for her, but no music. Do you have a solution?

The options in the app (on their phone or tablet) should allow them to sync other apps, like I Heart Radio or Pandora. That's what I use to play music through my Dot.

How complicated is the wireless set up?

I recently bought a Canon printer and the setup was horrible. There was no screen and it was never able to connect to my wifi and looked up numerous tutorials online but none could help my flashing light problem. SO will I have that much trouble with this setup as well?
Like most current HP printers, the wireless is easy to set up. The software will either prompt you to let HP do all the work or you can use the printer's touch screen to use the Wireless Wizard.

What is the advantage of a PC over a Mac?

I am interested in upgrading my desktop computer. However, I am not sure if I want a PC or a Mac. Also, I am a home user who has Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007. Will that suite of applications work on a new Dell Computer?
Microsoft Office 2007 will work just find with all operating systems. I believe the 2007 Home and Student edition had a 3 user maximum. And...you won't be able to use that version on a Mac.

The difference between Mac and PC is totally personal.

I do find the Mac to have faster startup and connect times, as well as being very well built. There are things it will not let you do, period, but for the average user doing the average things, it's a good choice.

The PC is more vulnerable but more forgiving. If you are adventurous, stick with the PC. Windows may warn you when entering iffy territory but it will not prevent you from going there.

Can you spli your viewing screen.

I'm wondering if you can run more than one function simultaneously; have email open on one side, and Internet as other half for example?
That's more of an operating system function. But to answer your question...yes. Just size down the screen (not maximized or minimized) and click and drag the title bar (top of the page) to the left or right until it "snaps" into place. Do the same with the other program by heading in the other direction. Now you have two programs running side by side.

Hope that helps.

Can I connect a seperate router to this?

Is that possible?
The device is wireless, so you can connect to any source available. It will use what you tell it to use. It has no ethernet port, if that is what you are asking.

It should be great on a 42". Mine is hooked up to a 50" and I couldn't be more pleased.

How can I print 4x6 pictures?

I have pictures on email that I want to print and I cannot get the paper slot correct.
Proper photo printing has as much to do with the program you use to print those pictures as it does with the printer. For the printer, be sure to remove your standard paper and gently move the grey size adjusters toward the center until it just snugs up to the photo paper. Feed it in portrait (like your regular paper), not landscape.
