[QUOTE="beachmonk, post: 1903596, member: 229899"] WOW some great information!!! I did a speed check and feel I am running pretty good. 512 mbps down and 34 up. I am on Ether with coax cable from the street with only 2 connectors inbetween. I did not know any of that info about channels. Not sure where I would change the channels. I have been into the router settings only occasionally. I'll check out those apps for wifi. Maybe this is why I get a regular drop on my wifi devices at about 9:11 almost sometimes 10:17 every night. It comes back but the pause can ruin the mood of the movie. I checked CPU % and found nothing taking up more than 11% and that was only for a few seconds, Something called window server keeps hitting the top end at 11% but then drops to 4%. Google chrome same. Not sure if CPU time is important but looks like window server again is raking at the top. I do have Anitvirus software running on occasion but turn it off. It has found some random malware on occasion. TM is on and backing up to my external. On that note, I haven't figured out the best way to delete the older backups. My 1TB external only has 148 MB available. Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
