Bed bugs are a heat treatment solution short of throwing EVERYTHING away. They have to basically heat the entire contents of the place…down to the interiors of of objects…not just the air temp to I wanna say 160 degrees.
It’s gonna take a few hours and prob cost a few hundred bucks at minimum.

You dead on nailed it. Grew up visiting my grandparents in Springfield as a kid in the 80’s and 90’s and also lived there from 2001-2006 while attending college. To this day I still talk about how it’s the worst driving I’ve ever seen. I have a few friends that still live there that say it has not improved at all in the 16 years since I moved. But yeah, I use to always preach the same theory as you as to why it’s so bad.

They just put on the poles on my block metal fiber line (OGPW I believe is the name…looks like ACSR wire) but are now having some bundles of black fiber showing up. Anyone know the rough time frame of the physical wire on the poles happening and service being available? The progress map is apparently not a thing anymore and if you aren’t already a customer option their search doesn’t know you exist…

Hi thank you for your comment, freezdried food is frozen, with all of the water content being evaporated at the same time so the h20 never 2'd. It's hard for me to explain in this one comment. I mainly use / Used mine to preserve foods for the next 20 years. I'll link photos, it's about the size of a small fridge. Commercial grade, Yes. Expensive? Not if you put it to work and have it pay for itself.

If you have a router capable of VLAN tagging, tag your WAN port 201 and cut out their router altogether.

If you know what you're doing, and have capable hardware, you just need to setup a VLAN interface on 201 and setup a DHCP client on it. There is no PPPoE on the connection, it's EoIP. The only thing that's required is their ONT.

FOAD.
I do very little driving period, because it's a fool's game from just about every angle. But when I do, I go whatever speed I need to to be safe and it's your job to do the same literally no matter what speed other people are driving. Or walking or biking or carting or whatever it is they do.
There is literally no minimum speed limit in Missouri and if you think there is or should be then you are the problem, not people who, for whatever reason, want or need to go slower as is their perfect legal right.
A surprise to many, but going as fast as you want in your car is not a constitutionally protected right.
But exercising the highest degree of care towards other drivers and everyone else on the road whenever you drive is in fact your legal duty.

Just curious: How do you freeze-dry? I heard you need some expensive, commercial-grade equipment.

Good luck so far but just had installed. Installation went pretty well.

Yeah, you can do that, but then you’ve got a double NAT. I tried DMZing the C4000XG to my Orbi to avoid that and got some pretty lousy results.
I bought a TP-Link 802.11ax extender and it works… some of the time. Definitely not perfect.

Problem is, if they push firmware updates like Mediacom does, it'll reset and start broadcasting again.

Shockingly, Netgear and TP Link both make decent extenders. At least they did 5 years ago.

Truly, I have never seen such fucking terrible drivers like here.

I've heard of some people plugging the Brightspeed router (4000XG?) into their own router (like an Orbi), then turning off the signal from the BS router. Far from ideal, but we might try that.

If I could put a (retail) mesh router in of my own choosing, absolutely would not have an issue in coverage. But you can’t do that, at least in an acceptable way.
Even if you don’t have a 3600 square foot house, just having a second story and a not centrally located place for their equipment would be problematic. You can add a 3rd party network extender, but those are largely hit or miss.

Your comment reminded me of an adage I heard.
A bad driver never misses their turn, a good driver does.

Hmm, when they "superheat" the room, is that gonna mess with any technology? Because my laundry room is more like a laundry closet directly attached to my bedroom. So if that's gonna be a problem then I figure throwing out the whole bed sounds like a better option
