I got some help from Jose Ortiz because he ordered a truckload of eero’s and has them powered up.  Also, how does it stand up to Ubiqiti, Open Mesh, Luma, and others?  Is it too expensive?  What does eero and Luma need to do in the coming months?  I also explain some testing trouble with WiFi and we say goodbye to an old friend.  See ya SlySoft.com.  Don’t worry, we already have a replacement for you.  It’s eero vs luma vs open mesh vs ubiquiti and more!
 
Big thanks to Jose Ortiz for helping me out on this one. He is a great podcaster.

I’ve got Luma and I don’t know what to do with it!  If you follow the HSS Forums you no doubt have heard about the Luma debacle that is unfolding. We go over that as well as hammer out a testing method for the Luma that I have in hand.  When I’m done testing I’m giving it away! Listen to find out how.
Well also cover some news.  I’ve got Patron shout outs, D-Link has some new cameras that you will want to hear about, I’ve got a follow up on Ecobee, Spruce for SmartThings, and Meetup 2016.  It’s a long show but it’s a handsome one, Clark!

The Luma vs Eero Testing Podcast HSS 303

Today I’m talking with Dr. Paul Judge, cofounder of Luma.  Luma is on the verge of being released and I’ve got a lot of questions about it for Paul.  My thanks to Luma and Paul for giving me a slice of his time today.  They are busy trying to get Luma into your hands and into stores so thank you for that.

Hyper-V Fixes, 2016 Evals, Xbox, Community and more on HSS 301

We made it to Episode 300 so expect a lot of “congratulatory backslapping.”  If you remember that phrase then you probably remember HSS Episode 100.  We had some fun on 300 but actually put together a podcast!  A lot really.  Meetup 2016 is on. Listen to find out when and where. Patreon is also a go. VPN’s, cameras, Wi-Fi, and some box building.  Is RAM cheap enough to get you to build new? How about HP’s boxes? I get totally confused on video card pricing and put the guys to the test on parts. I hope you have fun with this one. It’s long but it’s a good time!
Many thanks to Kevin Schoonover, John Stutsman, Mike Faucher, and Jim Collison for joining me on this episode and many more in the past.
