We go over the different models of AeroGarden and what models we've been using, how to diagnose your WiFi connectivity issues, and how to repair the Syma X5 Quadcopter!

Starting and Moving my Grow
-- Michael B
"I live just outside of Dallas, Tx and it is time to start my Tomato seeds. You have talked about the Miracle-Grow AeroGarden product on your show and I plan to purchase one. There seem to be several choices, Sprout, Harvest Bounty, Elite, Ultra and Bounty Elite + WIFI, I plan to purchase the Elite and need to know if the WIFI feature is worth the extra cost?"

We've shown off two AeroGardens on Know How

WiFi Issues
-- Robert Short
"Ok i got one for you all. Need a little help or at least your thoughts. Got a issue with WIFI. on my laptop dell R4110 it will drop WiFi for no reason. I have a Asus RT-N66R router and using the WiFi from the Comcast router. I can switch between routers and reconnect with no issues, i have reloaded drivers and even changed out the pci-e card. Anyone run into this before."

Intermittent problems SUCK! (So let's do some differential diagnosis)
1. Try with a different AP (Comcast routers SUCK)
2. Try with a USB Wireless adapter
3. Remove all third-party wireless connection management tools
