That was all part of the fios install

I got it ups last night and back up. Spoke with some Indian kid in India and Verizon sent another no charge

He tried to get me to upgrade to some faster router for $ but I didn’t go gor that.

WiFi tank gauge is installed and configured. I'll post the results after the first reading in 4 hours.

No boat, back in the suds.

Now to play the devil's advocate....

Why would you wait to check your tank level until you are away from home? for a few days no less?

Seems like you could check it while you're there and schedule a delivery while you're there as well.

Of course, I could be a case like someone that's driving on fumes and they want to see if they can make it to the gas station....

Anyway, I hope it works well.
It would really suck if it gave you faulty readings.

Imagine what could happen if it tells you that you have plenty of fuel when in fact you're about to run out?

I am a legend in my own mind!

Because we are not going to be away for a few days. We will be away from Jan to April. We have people taking care of the house but I want to make sure there are no "hiccups."

You're going to be checking your oil level like 9 times a day.

No, as it is set to update every 4 hours. I'll check it every few days.

How often do you check the WiFi camera guarding all your shoes?

I have an albino Bengal tiger guarding my shoes. If there's an issue he can call my cell.

I stand corrected and thank you for the clarification.
That makes perfect sense!
