I have USB 3/Ethernet adapter that I have in my backpack. I rarely use it though...

Unless, your wireless router is IPS own, and they update some sort of firmware on your router. Otherwise, I don't understand how ISP has to do with it? The only possible issue I can think of is: your SP3 has older wifi adapter driver where it used to throttle down the speed when SP3 is on...

Bummer!!! I guess, I will just have to set it to external monitor mode only for now. Thanks!

Can SFP3 and ext monitor 27 1440p dpi scale be set independently? I want SFP3 to be set at def 150% while external monitor at 100%.

According to MS, this is by design. swiping down to close the app is really more like halfway kill. It was designed such as that user can relaunch the app and it would refresh. To really kill the app using the swipe down is to: Swipe down to the bottom of the screen and hold for few seconds...

I use SimpleMind.

I am using Foobar2000 on my Windows system at my desk. I have not tried on SP3, just because I didn't want to put any music lib on it. Foobar2000 should work just fine on SP3.

I would think any bluetooth keyboard should work fine. I have old Samsung bluetooth keyboard I got for my old SP1 and it is working fine with my SP3.

MS, Apple, and pretty much many other company have good R&D lab that works on many new technologies. What to do with those technologies and how to make it practical to consumer that is different story. Often time, to make it affordable and practical they will have to wait for the right time...

I have no issue with iTunes on my SP3. Yeah, I would recommend uninstall and reinstall as well.

That sounds like your SP3 would not change. I went through two SP3 with charging issue. The issue was: it only charge if you put the AC power to SP3 one specific way. When the end point up, it charge fine. When the end point down, it would NOT charge. Yes, even when changing indicator on...

When SP3 first released, it did have issue with wifi driver. I believed it is now fixed. At least, I don't see that on mine anymore(knocked on wood). I had mine since SP3 was released. Anyhow, I recently experienced Wifi issue this week. What I did to resolved the issue is: From my...

I had the very same limited WiFi issue with the ASUS router. All I had to do was changing the radio channel on the router, then the issue went away. I hope this would help those with limited WiFi issue. It seems to relate to the router brand. I never had this issue with Netgear.

I normally use tempered glass on all my smaller devices. I tried one of those plastic stuff on my SP3. I removed it after a week or so of using the screen protector. It's just not the same with the plastic screen protector on larger device. Somehow, the interactive experience just missing...

knocked on wood. I have NOT had any issue with fan, overheated, nor thermometer on my SF3 i7/256. The fan usually don't come on during regular usage. Fan came on during the 9/9 update and went away after the restart and complete the update. I did have with Fan/heat issues when had the i5...

"Home" and "Home 5ghz" are not the same.

I just tried the same name SSID on my Apple extreme. I would NOT let me. If you name both the same. It automatically disable the 5GHz band. If you forced the 5Ghz back on, it automatically appended "5Ghz" at the end of the name.

why would one named both SSID the same? Does the router allow that? I never tried.

I have older Apple extreme that can only do up to N at 300mbps at 5Ghz band. I just turned it on at tried it. Both my MBP 15 and SF3 able to connect to Apple extreme at maximum support link on 5GHz at 300mbps. I usually named my SSD as xxxx2 for 2.4ghz and xxxx5 for 5ghz. I don't name them...
