I'm in CA, and I'm reviewing my plan options being a now-past Cox customer. My current internet plan is $174/month for 1Gb down/100Mb up with unlimited data.

Post acquisition, I see an option for a 2 Gig plan that will cost me $49/month less. Sounds good up front, but the devil is in the details.

On Notable Changes to Plan, it mentions "Removes DUB", and there's a percentage sign to the left of that. Any idea what that means?

Then there's this info under Additional Charges & Terms:

Provider Monthly Fees
Optional Panoramic Wifi Service $0.00
Optional Unstoppable Wifi $20.00

One Time Fees
Service Activation $20.00
Professional Installation $50.00
Change of Service $50.00
Hourly Labor Charge $50.00
Reconnect Fee $5.00
Service Deposit $50.00 based on credit
Late Fee $4.75
Early Termination Fee $0.00
Government Taxes Varies by location

I know it states Optional Unstoppable Wifi, but am I going to get forced into some trial wifi BS? Also, I have my own ARRIS SURFboard SB8200 cable modem, which is DOCSIS 3.1. Aside from the fact that I'm (for now) limiting my download to 1Gbps, will Spectrum be forcing me to purchase a different cable modem, or maybe one provided for them? Lastly, if I'm just changing my plan and I'm not changing hardware, I assume I won't be charged for any professional installation?

I knew where things stood when I was a Cox customer, but now I'm very wary of making changes that may incur additional charges.

Any experience from anyone else in CA (Southern California in particular) would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty much the title. I still have the Samsung SmartThings hub, but now I've been able to successfully move the last couple of items off of SmartThings:

1. Got a Zwave adapter and moved my Schlage lock to HA, and also added Lock Code Manager.
2. Moved my Samsung refrigerator to HA via LocalThings.

Anyways, what's the clean way to remove SmartThings from HA?

I have the MC12 at 4 stars max rank, and the best I can do is around 46.7 seconds or so. I am TD, but I don't know if I'm going the wrong route or what.

I've created a few automations within HA that do successfully trigger notifications on my iPhone with the HA app installed. If I tap on the notification on my phone, it just opens the HA app. When I'm in HA itself (app or browser web UI), the Notifications section is always empty. Is this because I've already ack'd the notification by selecting it on my phone? Is there any way to review past notifications, preferably in the notifications section?
