has anyone ever had random bsods related to the mounting screws for the motherboard being loose in a couple of places? there are several reasons why that could have been happening to me (and why i hope its fixed now) but i was just curious if that was A Thing

i recently found that turning one antenna 90 degrees opposed to the other improved throughput by like 10 Mbps on both of our computers. is that A Thing or is it just coincidence

modem + router, every time sbg6580 is pretty mediocre. firewall sucks (it would always "forget" to forward ports if a device went to sleep). its not dual band so you only get 2.4 OR 5 ghz, not both at the same time.

i just moved into a new place and the same router that reliably got me 100+ mbps before now struggles to hit 20, and no amount of coaxing or fiddling with settings helps. it's MAYBE 15 feet further away from my computers. i blame the huge mirror in the bathroom between the router and the computers

i kinda wish i had something so i could set the router up by the ceiling, just to see if it would squeak over the mirror. the computers are on the floor so it probably wouldn't help i assume my upstairs neighbors have their router on the floor above us. their network is like 10 db stronger than ours lmao

2.4 punches thru pretty well but of course its crowded as gently caress so performance is still not great. id be more worried if i didnt have the option of moving the gear into the office vv

The hum is most likely a ground loop and fancier analog cable will probably not help. If you have a cable modem physically attached to the computer somehow a ground isolator might help. As for S/PDIF, you may need to assign the coax to an input (video 1 or whatever). You may also need to make the digital output the default in the computer.
