Comments

Backyardcuer: Eliminates having to install vpn on all devices on network. It was a little more difficult to set up than described, but after a chat with tech support , it is working well.

Ellen Oba: I've been using an older Netgear router that was flashed with the software. The new Aircove router doesn't drop hardly any speed and the bandwidth is so much better. The image on streaming video is so clear compared the fuzzy, pixel laden view using the older router. I'm so glad I upgraded to the Aircove

Casper: I purchased this due to the heavy online restrictions imposed at a place where I spend some of my days & nights. Instead of dealing with apps, device limits, etc etc., I grabbed one of these & couldn’t be happier. The setup was super easy, and the router was up & running within minutes. I’m guessing that many negative reviews on here are based on unrealistic expectations. For starters, yes your internet speed will go down. However, I’ve noticed internet speeds are much faster with this router compared to running apps on individual devices. What’s nice, though, is knowing that whatever I connect to this router’s Wi-Fi is covered. This is a solid performer; I only wish I had bought sooner!

Alan L.: My Aircove router does not always work properly, but it might be due to external factors as VPN is officially not allowed in the country where I reside.

Robert Wareham: This thing was plug and play for ExpressVPN from Panama to the United States. Speed on WiFi is 4X our old router. Ignore the one-star ratings. These are people with unreasonable expectations for a device at this price point. This device performs superbly for a router priced under $200 and the design-for-task functionality makes it so easy a novice can use it. Those who expect gig speed throughput on a router had been get out their checkbooks. For the other 00.9 percent of us this router fits the bill.

Patricia: I laughed, smiled, and cried happy tears.

This book moved me.

This book reminded me to be proud of who I am and to dream BIG.

All I can say is: THANK YOU AJ. 🙏♥️

Anonyme: April Mendez nous parle de son enfance et de comment elle a su réussir malgré les embuscades. C'est un livre très touchant, qui nous parle de l'importance de la santé mentale, et qu'il faut se battre malgré tout. Attention, le livre est en anglais.

K. G. A. Alavi: A very good book. I actually bought this book, as it appeared on my recommendations list, the title instantly caught my attention. Then on closer inspection I realized the author was the wife on one of my favorite wrestlers CM Punk, even though I stopped watching wrestling a few years ago, and have never seen one of Aj's matches, (I will remedy that with youtube), why not give it a go. I am really surprised how much I actually did like the book, and I think definitely has important messages about mental illness. I especially like the way AJ personalizes the illness calling it the darkness and the villain of the story to be defeated.

I think I am not main target audience, but I proved my geekhood by recognizing every comic book storyline and character mentioned in the book. On this notes AJ's geeky jokes are great. AJ talks very passionately about mental illness, the way outcasts like freaks and geek are perceived. Though she does all of this from the female point of view. Apart from some message/warnings to depraved men, she does not talk about the same for the males. I understand this as she writes about what she knows. The other thing is she asks a question is you are not...

Andrew Hunter: This is just an incredible book. Unfamiliar with AJ's personal life story beforehand, I was shocked by how harsh her life was growing up. Throughout the book, AJ remains witty, engaging and at no point did I feel anything but a desire to keep on reading.

It is a true testament to her astonishingly strong will that she suffered such abuse growing up, only to emerge as a strong, incredibly inspiring person, who is arguably one of the greatest female performers of all time. That just shows what a remarkable human being she is.

When talking of her time in the WWE, AJ stays classy at all times. When telling any stories that reflected her fellow WWE employees in a bad light, she does not mention anyone by name.

This book will shock you. It will make you laugh. It will make you feel heartbroken. It will make you feel joyful. It will make you feel a whole range of emotions. It is truly from start to finish, the ultimate thrill-ride. It is a book that I would highly recommend to anyone.
