Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer I recently purchased the Avantree HT4189 Bluetooth earphones to listen to TV when my wife is asleep. The sound and quality seems better than the Sony TV headphones that I had purchased before. I believe you can get an Avantree solution that comes with two headphones.

Q: QuestionI am buying an Arris cable modem and an Eero mesh network from Best Buy. I would like you to set up both the modem and the router. Do I need to purchase two different installation packages or do I pay $99 once and you set up both modem and the network?

Asked 5 years ago by jonathan.

• A:Answer Modem is probably fine. Router is the first thing to address. Get one that reaches every room and you will be fine. Geek Squad makes sure you don't buy what you don't need.
