Is it just me or is this the worst managed road project ever? The original plan was for this to start in 2022 & be done by December 2023. Here we are in October 2024, and given that they haven’t even started on the sidewalk I’d guess there’s at least a month to go. They finished the Coralville 1st Ave/I80 interchange in less time.

I’m one of those people who has never had issues with Mediacom and has stable service at my place.

With ImOn coming to town I gave them a call and they upgraded me to 1gb for less than the ImOn early bird costs and locked in the rate to 2 years, so might be worth it to give them a ring.

I have a newer home and the amount of sound that travels the ductwork is crazy. I can hear people on the other side of the house. It seems to be primarily through the supply ducts not the returns.

I’ve seen things online about duct mazes, but those assume your ducts are rectangular, and mine are round rigid ducts. I’ve also see online duct mufflers for fan noise but I’m unsure if those would be helpful for voices.

I’ve contacted a couple of HVAC companies any they basically all told me sound isn’t their thing unless it’s reducing the sound from the furnace.

Any suggestions?

Our new house has 3 Minka Aire Zen ceiling fans. They all have remotes to operate the light and fans. If you switch off the wall switch, usually when you power it up it goes back to whatever state it was in when you turned it off. However, at least once every couple of days the fan loses connection with the remote so when you power it up nothing happens until you reset the remote.

Has anyone got any suggestions for keeping the remote connected or for replacing the remotes with wall controls? I see the Minka sells wall controls that look just like the remote
