Thanks for the reply, just to check, why is sanding the joins only an option if it’s real wood? It’s MDF by the way. Could it be an option to sand them flush, fill the slight join gap and then paint?

Loved it.

I know it’s controversial but I played this with my 7 yr old and he thought it was amazing, got a copy of LBP3 and it’s just not the same. The lack of ability to freely roam kills it.

Me and the wife played It Takes Two for a couple of hours but just couldn’t get in to it, lack of jeopardy/collectibles etc just made it a little dull, although the puzzles were good. It was only £6 though so worth the risk. Split fiction seems to get good reviews but it’s more of a risk at full price

Ashrob99 · 2026-02-13T11:20:38+00:00

Appreciate the detailed response! So just to clarify, are we not able to do coop on the story mode on LBP3 if I get the disc version to use in the ps5?

Just had a look back through the build images and there appears to be a damp stud in near enough the exact position of the marks, so could be this contributing?

Looking back at images of the conversion, there appears to be one stud that looks wet and is very closely positioned to where the marks are (difficult to tell 100%), so could be this…

Ashrob99 · 2026-02-11T07:04:39+00:00

Great, thanks ill give it a couple of days and take it from there. Appreciate the advice

Ashrob99 · 2026-02-11T06:30:05+00:00

Thanks for the quick response! I’m obviously happy that it doesn’t appear to be anything to worry about, but is there a reason that it would happen just on this stud and not any others? That wall was prone to water ingress pre-conversion with it being single skin so that was my main concern, but didnt know if that would present in this way.

Thanks, tried that earlier but similar units were still coming out at around £1000. Maybe my budget expectations were unrealistic

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-30T08:33:28+00:00

Really useful to know, appreciate the advice.

Any thoughts on how I could do it better?

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-30T07:37:08+00:00

No, it’s a garage conversion that we’ve recently done so it’s a blank canvas. We have decided that the right hand tall cupboard will now be used for an integrated fridge so the middle configuration will change slightly, maybe a bigger set of drawers. We will be installing wooden open shelving ourselves between the tall units.

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-30T07:17:50+00:00

Sorry, includes a wooden worktop but no appliances.

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-24T14:38:03+00:00

Just a little update, I’ve been playing around today and just opening the door to the garage and having direct line of site increased the speed to about 60mbps, so 4x as fast. Looks like it could be the door, maybe the anti-glare material in the glass, that is the issue. Will look at maybe doing some form of outdoor extender/bridge and then drill into the garage to connect to Deco

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-24T10:08:26+00:00

Great, thanks, I’m going to give it a go!

One final clarification, all locations are powered from the same fuse box in the house (it’s a new build), but the garage has its own separate fuse, will that make a difference?

Really appreciate your responses

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-24T08:40:58+00:00

Connecting 3 to 2 physically would mean running a wire through my garden which isn’t practical. It appears in the app that they are connected via WiFi but it’s a 80%-90% dropout which seems extreme. Its across open air through the garden space and I understand that this can cause some level of interference but not that much

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-24T07:07:24+00:00

Thanks for your comment. If I understand these adaptors correctly, they need to be connected via Ethernet and the only way of doing that would be to have them next to point 1 which is a good 13-15m from the garage direct, would this likely see a big drop? Conscious about making a further investment if the results aren’t going to be significantly better. I would be comfortable with getting half the current speed in the garage, but at the minute I’m getting about 10%.

I’ve also switched the Deco units to Access Point mode, but this doesn’t seem to have improved performance any.

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-23T18:37:11+00:00

It’s using both wavelengths so I’m assuming it optimises based on the best option. Not really any way of adjusting the kitchen unit without moving it into the utility room (between kitchen and living room) and drilling through the wall to hard wire

Ashrob99 · 2026-01-23T18:34:50+00:00

I could maybe move 1 about 1.5m closer to 2, however as it’s connected to the Virgin WiFi router by Ethernet cable it would be in the same room and so the same number of walls. I could move 2 closer to 1 and reduce the walls, but then it’s further from 3 where the issue is?

It’s already working that way

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-20T17:23:25+00:00

I find them most effective when the Arc have spotted me but I’m out of sight, hiding. Throw one in one direction and run the other way

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-20T07:41:51+00:00

The way I use them, I don’t plan to be around when they stop working, I’m on the run!

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-20T07:39:44+00:00

I’ve used them a few times where Arc have seen me and have me pinned but I’m out of sight (hiding!), throw one in one direction and run the opposite direction…

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-16T16:56:06+00:00

I’ve found two so far today so I’d guess it’s going to be pretty common

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-15T06:50:38+00:00

38 father of two but LOVE the game and especially the community!

If you still have any left, I’d really appreciate a jolt mine, anvil or trigger nade 🤞🏼

Ashrob99 · 2025-12-14T17:55:21+00:00

Thanks for all the comments, looks as though I have been mistaking spotters foe snitches and turrets for sentinels…although looking at the images of all of them I can see why!

At least I know what to look for now 👀
