    mdonnelly, It was indeed a very different time. My Dad tells stories of shining shoes, paper routes, selling magazines and doing odd jobs so that he had the money to go to the movies, because he didn't want to ask his folks. Thankfully I never had to feel like I needed to work as a child. He...

    We cancelled DirectTV two years ago, OTA is not feasible here for us. We tried DirectvNow then Hulu before we signed with YouTube TV. Wow are we happy, the best part is the DVR. During "Tornado" season our TV programing is often taken over by the "Best" storm coverage in the nation. And yet 2-3...

    I'm trying not to complicate things, we got him a 65" Sony 4K 900 series 2 years ago when we moved him from Las Vegas to Oklahoma City. The Plex app is on his TV, right next to YouTube, which he watches incessantly. He gets confused about which remote to use, so I set it up so he can use the...

    Well, I need to simplify it as much as possible, he has trouble working the smart phone I got him 2 years ago. It breaks my heart sometimes to see the way his abilities, both mental and physical are fading. I think it's the mental degradation that bothers him the most. At the time he took an...

    __________________________________________________________________________________________ harshness Said "You'll have to see if the R9000 is up to the transcoding task (even if it just has to transcode to 1080i). Just because you can download painstakingly pre-compressed 1080p at 5Mbps doesn't...

    My connection is supposed to be 1 Gbps up/down no data cap for $85/mo. I was paying Windstream $140/mo for a dual DSL line G Bonded modem including land line that gave us only a max of 35 Mbps down/1.5 Mbps up, due to poor quality phone lines. NO Plex upload with that speed. His wifi will...

    When Windstream was doing our G Bonded modem we found out about the fiber optic running along highway 74 at the end of our dead end street. It was so frustrating to have fiber nearly within reach.

    I'm hoping to have enough speed thru the VPN to be able to stream my Plex server to my Dad's in Del City, OK. He's 92 and been locked down in his assisted living facility for a month now and getting bored.

    We've been chomping at the bit, Windstream DSL service here s**ks because of the old wire, we were finally able to upgrade to a duel DSL line G Bonded modem and for the same price as 100 Mbps service we got 35 Mbps down/ 1.5 Mbps up for $140/mo. including phone line. I'm not sure about my...
