    I am new to this and want to grasp a better understanding. I can understand stacking using two or more switches, but can you stack a router to a switch using SFP? What are the pros and cons about that

    • @BuzStringer
      @BuzStringer 2 дні тому

      You can, if the router supports SFP. The benefits are only there if the router is doing any switching or being used as a wireless access point, or has a modem connected to it. They are the same benefits as linking two switches. If the router is just holding the DHCP table and not handling another network traffic then there is no benefit, the DHCP table is very low traffic.

    I kind of Regret buying my S95B, It's a great TV. No doubt about it. Thin, and Very Vibrant. I do love a lot of things about it. But it's lack of Dolby Vision while not the biggest downside personally for me though it is a bit of a pain, my main issue is the Audio. The Speakers on the S95B Absolutely Suck. Like Seriously. It is Flat. No Punch at all. I had to go out of my way to buy my first surround sound system in order to resolve that. the Samsung Q800B. Now that has been brilliant, and can sync with the TV Speakers so their still used but now act more effectively as a whole. But... The fact I had to do that at all was ridiculous. Compared to my Old TV the Sony XE930 it didn't have all the bells and whistles, hell Dolby Vision came later on as a Software Update however, it had Very Respectable Audio, like it was quite clear and had some punch in bass too so I didn't need to buy a Surround System. That and it was one of the last TV's to have Component and Composite Support, So I could plug in my Modern Hardware as well as my Older Stuff like my PS2 and Original Xbox. I've now given that XE93 to my Mother as she required a much needed Upgrade, But still if I could go back to the day I was Buying a New TV. I think I should've gone with the Sony A95K instead of the Samsung S95B.

    • @manojvarughese4337
      @manojvarughese4337 Місяць тому

      Now if this be a thread: One of the biggest issues was Microsoft and game services standing itself in the way for the console brand to excel. Gamepass? Absolute failure in my honest opinion. It's not about showcasing library and numbers(buying studios, streaming and online/MP subscription services) but a game, a hardware and attaining a userbase. A game, A hardware, A userbase. This is where the vision should start from. Accessibility and multi-plaform reachability comes after.

    • @manojvarughese4337
      @manojvarughese4337 Місяць тому

      Unfortunately Microsoft merged their console with their software services and brought about its own death knell. The more they distance itself the hardware from mediocre software services, they will reach the 360's glory.

    Great video, but you fail to mention the dealbreaker for android in my opinion: lag. I have had all of these. You name it, I've had it. All of the Amazon devices become impossibly slow after a few months, to the point of me wanting to smash their remotes in frustration. Yes, it is that bad. Reset to factory setting helps, but it you are like me and have every single streaming service known to man, setting all that back up is just not viable to do every couple of months. The Shield was the best here, but even that succumbed to lag after 2 or 3 years. Apple is a different story, I have the latest 4K with ethernet, as well as a 4th gen one with the old remote. These things just work, period. No lag, no frustration. I'm an old school PC gamer (keyboard, not gamepad please) so the streaming to TV things offered by the Shield are a little gimmicky in my opinion. My takeaway: I have a Shield in my family room TV, where everyone watches something. What's in my bedroom where only me and my wife watch? Apple TV 4K ethernet.

      excellent points, i can't imagine the Apple TV every becoming laggy, it one of the benefits of them not letting you mess around to much with the UI and settings. we've had the Shield for a couple of years, no lag yet, but it's running a custom lightweight launcher so we don't see any of the google nonsense. i personally haven't seen any lag with our Fire Stick 4K Max, but that has very infrequent use and we only ever run one app on there. other Firesticks i have seen it, surprisingly around the same time they updated to UI to include more Ads, urgh.

      @@BuzStringer with the custom UI/launcher you can still use the Shield-specific features like the 4k upscaling, right?
