It was always weird that you could place a plate of pizza rolls on top of the XBox and 20 minutes later they'd be piping hot..
I just thought it was a "feature".

Honestly, that is pretty scary. No wonder kids are so messed up being around that all day everyday.

Yeah.
I started playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on my desktop PC last week.
Dodged a bullet on that one.

Re: PLX won't like this.....
I had to upgrade to a new internet modem for my internet service and my old one did not have wifi. The tech hooked up the new one and I asked how do you turn off the wifi. He said I don't think you can...
So after he hooked it up my computer speakers started humming with RF noise that they have never had. As I moved my hand over the bottom of the modem the noise would lessen and as I removed my hand it wold get louder and more intense as the WIFI backlight would flicker as it was sending a constant wifi signal 20-40 feet. As far as I know the 4g adn 5G frequencies have not been safety tested and I know with microwave Naval communications they have to clear the decks of personnel or they will be cooked during transmission receiving.
So I dug into the manual and there was a way to turn it off via the control panel and then I had to reboot the modem to keep it off.
After I turned the WIFI off my speakers stopped having that RF noise.

Wow...if it isn't one thing it is another. Seriously, there is so much stuff to be concerned about it is ridiculous.

HD, try to get into the administrative menu of your router by opening a browser window and typing in 192.168.100.1 or possibly 192.168.1.1harddriver wrote: ↑Wed May 11, 2022 2:09 pm I had to upgrade to a new internet modem for my internet service and my old one did not have wifi.

The admin password is usually on a tag somewhere on the device. You might find the internal IP address there as well.
From there, you can usually config damn near anything.
