  1. I'm going to work in Kamloops for a couple of days and my clubs are coming with me.  Where should I play after the work is done?

      Rivershore is another good track close to town

  2. Need internet help/advice.

    Having connectivity issues with devices.  Here is some history:

    1.  Internet started to crap out just over a year so bought a new router.  Seemed to correct the issues.

    2.  Bought a new laptop a year ago.  First the sound goes haywire then it starts to have connectivity issues.  After about 2 months dealing with Staples/HP they fix the motherboard and that fixes the sound.  Wifi connectivity not so much.  All other devices work reasonably fine.  Brought the laptop to work and it worked fine there.

    3.  Laptop worked okay when it was on the same floor as the router, so buy a splitter to put the router on the main floor.  Laptop connection is marginally better but all other devices are suffering now.  Especially when streaming on smart tv which was never an issue before.

    4.  Now also notice that my wife's phone will not even recognize the wifi signal.

     

    At a loss for what to do.  Is it a laptop issue, a router issue (or both), a strength of internet signal?  Any tips to trouble shoot would be greatly appreciated.

      I haven't had an issue with speeds on 2.4. I would expect streaming to your tv would be just fine.

      Telus updated my modem about a year ago to one which can output both 5ghz and 2.4ghz. By default it was set to use the 5ghz. I never had wifi issues prior to this change, however I did experience spottier/slower wifi connection after the new modem was installed. Things like being further away upstairs from the modem, if my gf's phone was close by, if the microwave was running, all made the wifi connection of my phone/ipad degrade. 

      I changed the modem to output 2.4ghz again and only connect to that and things have gone back to normal, always have a stable wifi connection even when things like the microwave are on. 

      This change could help you too?

  4. Can we all just take a moment and appreciate what Benning has done for our prospect pool! He's made some mistakes along the way, but our prospect pool is the deepest its ever been and with some elite prospects! Hell our Hobey Baker winner isn't even considered in our top 5 by many people!

     

    Pettersson, Hughes, Demko, Juolevi, Gaudette, Dahlen, Lind, Woo, DiPietro, Gadjovich, etc, etc, etc.

     

    Jim Benning, we thank you!

      He's pulled off the stealth tank to perfection.

  6. I miss Sportsnet Pacific, can't believe I'm watching Oilers/Leafs highlights to open the show rather than the monumental night for Daniel Sedin...

      Used to love SPac. Even on nights the Canucks were'nt playing you could start watching at 10pm and the first 5-10 mins was still Canucks coverage.  Now it's garbage.

      Glad he's playing better, Canucks need him to be a player. 

       

      Looks a little coked-out to be honest though.
