I am currently building a new home, and have followed this forum for a while.  I am looking at what I may purchase for whole house audio.  I am looking at a couple of different options.  The first is the HTD lync system.  I am looking at 12 zones (over time), and this provides a reasonable...

My recommendation would be to go with the Synology.  I have used one for 3-4 years now.  I have used buffalo and dlink, and to be honest they didn't even come close in features/performance.  Synology continues to evolve their software and make great enhancements.  Upgrades have always been...

Yes, the HVAC system works fine. I ran some tests last night, and the call for heat, a/c work, and fan work as they are supposed to.

Just came back from a weekend away, and noticed that my tstat display is blank/empty. Nothing is displaying, but i do have power to it, as it is backlight. I have it connected to an Elk M1 and it had been working flawlessly up until now. I have tried turning the furnance off and letting it...
