Hey all

I’m looking to upgrade the food for my 7 month old Shiba. The breeder had him on purina one true instinct puppy high protein, chicken and duck.

She did say I could upgrade to the Purina pro plan if I want to get something fancier. I’m trying to decide between the regular puppy pro plan chicken and rice formula or if I should get the puppy sensitive skin and stomach, salmon and rice formula.

He doesn’t have a sensitive stomach now, or any allergies that I know of but I was reading that a lot of people like to use that one with Shiba‘s as they can develop allergies and the salmon is good for their coat.

I saw a 30/20 sport as well but I read 20% is too much fat.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Looking to get a fence done and checked if Costco has any install programs like they do with other household projects and I stumbled upon these composite fence diy panels and am wondering if anybody has gotten these?

There aren’t any reviews yet and I have not seen posts on r/Costco about them.

I know it’s not available with those extensions anymore and it’s not in the URL anymore either. It does seem like T-Mobile makes it harder to find.

I’m not sure if anybody has a workaround now, but I did discover one. Is that something I should post or would that be against any tos or something?

Placed an order with support yesterday and it was supposed to be an XB8 (they did inform me it’s possible I get a 7 so not blaming anyone) but a 7 was sent. They said I could request this to be swapped if a 7 came and this one looks pretty beat up as well.

Was considering moving services to a competitor but wanted to see what Comcast could maybe do in terms of price. The first retention agent said there would be deals but I would need to wait for the port out on the landline to complete.

After that the second agent said they no longer do any retention deals and no deals for customers. The only reason we didn’t cancel is she said there might be deals in a month.

Can a rep here check if there are any deals before we cancel?

It’s time to replace the hepa filter in my Winix unit (Filter size S) I got at Costco a while back.

I see the genuine filters range from around $50 and that seems a little pricy for a small unit. I see a bunch of random generic ones on Amazon around $30 for 4 filters but it’s literally all no name brands and nonsensical brands.

Does anybody have good quality generic for Winix size S that they trust or should I just stick with the genuine?

This is in the US

Signed up for choice and I thought after all the promos the rack rate is $118.98 like it’s advertised on the website but in the account summary there is an intro discount for 2 years of $66.01 off making the rate $159 a month.

Did I sign up for the wrong service? I did no devices so there isn’t a contact. Did use someone’s referral link.

Had a Wyze Duo cam installed and had a electrician run new doorbell wire and install a new transformer and at first everything was working fine. The doorbell detected AC power and showed it was powered off the wires.

The next morning I noticed it showed a battery percentage. Had the transformer tested and was dead so they replaced it and double checked the wiring and this one was instantly killed.

Is there something wrong with the doorbell? Will I need to contact Wyze for a warranty replacement or is there something else to test or do before getting a 3rd transformer installed?

Note the chime is bypassed.

Edit: First transformer was a 16v 30VA and the second was a 24v 40VA.

Ported out a Comcast Digital Voice Landline that completed on Friday. The new service works with the number. Makes and receives calls just fine but I can still make calls from the Comcast equipment and it shows the number I ported out.

The app still shows voice service for that phone number but if I go change plan it does show that there is a pending order. Will it auto cancel or will I need to?

Also the upcoming charges show over $100 less now but in the plan configuration tool with no changes it shows the bill will be more. It’s just internet and TV now and probably will drop TV.

On Friday morning I got the email from Ooma that my port from Comcast (landline) was completed and everything appears good on Ooma end.

Can make and receive calls fine with the ported number on the Tello. But I’ve noticed the Comcast eMTA modem was still online and I can even place a call and the number I ported away shows up as the caller ID.

Is this normal? I do see on the Comcast account if I do some digging into change plan it says there is an order pending I assume that’s the cancellation of the landline. Is it safe to go ahead and cancel the landline now has the port finished?

I know many people recommend running plugless and after replacing our molded over unit I removed the plug and a lot of water comes out. It’s a humid area.

What about removing the foam from the black plug so it still mostly drains but just a little slower?

Have been trying to setup a new Tello Air 2 all afternoon and have tried different ethernet cables different connection, methods, and different ISPs and it just won’t go online.

Spent over an hour with support and even opened a bunch of ports and nothing. Their basic system didn’t show anything online but tier 2 was able to pull a log saying it was connected to the Internet, but couldn’t establish some VPN. He didn’t know what this meant.

They are sending a new one, but it’ll probably take a week and I’m wondering if there’s anything I can try in the meantime.

He didn’t mention the activation code starting with a six indicates it’s an older unit. Is that somehow causing a problem?
