If you’re on cable, it could also be that your router selects channels only when connecting (or that its FW is bad at detecting when it should hop). If there is a lot of other traffic on “your” channel and the router doesn’t hop automatically to another one, it could be that it does once you force it to reconnect.

I’m wondering if that isn’t the case. 3 phones, 4 iPads, a receiver, two Blu-Ray players, the house phone, and several computers are all sharing the same router.
I doubt they would all be using that bandwidth at the same time though, I’ve only seen a strong slowdown on the family’s ADSL line when someone was watching Netflix or downloading on a single device. Otherwise it always handled fine. Then a new neighbourhood got hooked up and internet slowed waaay down. Fortunately they could switch the connection over to VDSL which helped tremendously.
Do you install the oil pimp with a “back-o-the-hand” stroke?

If you want to keep your pimp in working order you must count and organize your hos. Any out-of-order ho must be corrected with a torque wrench or other heavy tool.

This feeling emerged once again today. It strikes every few months ago.
Is @Bogusheadbox feeling okay? I post pictures of honest to gosh real life F-111s and I hear nary a peep out of him.

Has anyone used Turkish towels (Pestemal / Hammam)? Opinions? I know they aren’t big and fluffy, but purportedly dry faster and are pretty soft.
I know. Pretty random question…

I have a friend who swears by them, and yes, they’re pretty great. Very soft, and still work very, very well for drying off.

If this is an outdoor related question, i usually use microfiber towels when hiking or mountaineering. They pack very tight and are comparatively light. The feeling on the skin is, well, unusual but they get you dry and they dry off quickly.
