Mornin OG! When I wear a HD shirt and I sit too long at my desk and I shift my weight, it feels clunky. But when I wear my Baker shirt and shift, its smooth!

Mornin, Marcus. Doing some back reading and a topic that is right in your wheelhouse has come up. Allen needs to get better Wi-Fi in his garage. We have a 'wi-fi' extender (I think that is what it is called) in the bedroom. It is a fair distance from the modem in the TV room and seems to work.

I've changed when any remodeling was involved. The problem is some of the old stuff with the **** and tube, there's barely and inch of slack and ,as you know, the insulation has a tendency to crumble if you touch it. Sometimes better to leave well enough alone. I meant to tell you when you were talking about the old wiring some time ago. If the old insulation cracks or crumbles, I put a length of vacuum hose or fuel line over it and tape the end to hold it. Saved my *** a number of times.
Exactly! I wood like to abandon all my old wiring and start over.

Ya, I'm told by comcast that if I run a tee off the incoming cable line and run hardwire to the shop I need a MTA ?? modem to connect to the cable line.
Nobody but them evidently knows what a MTA modem is.
So it would also end up with addition charges to use their modem.
I give them bloodsuckers enough money already.
Only advantage might be I can put a cable box out there and watch TV, as if I don't goof off out there enough already.
Not sure if the signal is weak or the comps wifi receiver is just not picking up the signal, maybe due to location.
I have cable and a tee if need be, but below freezing temps make this a project I'd rather do in spring, especially as burying the cable now might be a bit difficult.
One should always know where one's extensions are, napping or not btw.
