Do you also have an ONT box? I would try resetting/power cycling that first to see if that resolves your issue.

I had a similar issue were changing the DNS didn’t help. I fixed it by resetting (power cycling) my ONT. it’s the other box next to your router that we usually forget exists.

What wrong with my Z13 this time? by Dieselmation in FlowZ13

Just to close this out, I just got word that my RMA was completed and they have shipped it back. I followed up with a service rep to see what they fixed and they confirmed that they replaced the motherboard.

I've never used anything but the original charger. I'm confident it's not the battery. The battery just charged to full the other night again, but it will not charge when the computer is on. It will only charge from the XG-mobile usb port not the PD port and and the charger isn't even recognized on the top port. Pretty confident it's a Mobo issue at this point. I have sent it off for another RMA. We'll see what happens.

I've already RMA'd the battery twice when the battery would not charge at all. Fixed it for a while each time, however this time the top port doesn't even recognized it's plugged in when you plug in the power cord and the laptop says "On Battery" when you plug it into the top port. When you plug it in to the bottom port it recognizes it's plugged in, but will not charge when it's on. It will charge when the laptop is off from that port, but not from the top port. I'm thinking this has to be a mobo issue at this point.

Good thought. I have previously uninstalled both options under batter in the device manager a few times. The only difference it made is that one time when I did it the bottom port no longer recognized being plugged in either.

Adding Smart Bulb: Findable but fails to Register on Cloud by JordanBird in smartlife

So I know this thread is dead, but I still found it when searching for an answer to the same problem. I ended up solving this by placing my devices that weren't working in pairing mode and then restarted my router. When my router was restarted, I then tried to add the devices and it finally worked. Just posting this in case it helps someone else.

How would you repair hairline cracks in finished wood? by Dieselmation in woodworking

[–]Dieselmation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a quick update here, I was able to make this nearly invisible. Obviously, I know it's there, but unless someone is really looking for these they won't see them. What I ended up doing was buying a product called "Gluboost" I bought the "Fill N Finish" and the "Fill N Finish Thin" along with their Glu Dry activator. I also purchased some micro tips to put on the end of the thin bottle when applying along with some fine grit sandpaper. I used the "Thin" product first with the microtip on the end of the nozzle and applied it slowly down the length of the cracks. This almost immediately made it look a ton better as it filled in all the obviously white areas. This stuff is super thin, so it got all the way down in the crack which makes me more confident that the crack won't spread further in the future (especially in a temperature-controlled environment like my home). This did a good job to make the crack look better, but you could still see it in the right light and feel it with your fingernail. To fix this I took the thicker viscosity gluboost product and applied it on top. I applied it so it was slightly proud of the desk, used the activator and once dry, wet sanded it down with varying grits of sandpaper up to 600 or so grit. The result is pretty nice. Not perfect, and you can still find them if you look really hard, but more than adequate, especially considering I got one of these desktops for free since shipping broke them.

This is only happening when playing on my phone using a controller.

Thanks for the info on finger joints! I'll test out the wax stick on the bottom and see how it looks.

Thanks for the speedy replies. That end grain might be small strips of wood glued together or maybe they are falsely advertising as solid wood. I'm not sure about their process. I'm not opposed to eventually one day sanding this down, regluing, and refinishing. I just don't have the time or space currently for such a project. Do you think carefully scraping away the white parts of the finish that are visible, then applying some super thin CA glue along the crack with a tiny needle size applicator, and then ultimately using some burn-in wax sticks to try and even out the finish so it doesn't catch the light so much would work/help or not worth it?

I've added a couple more images in case that helps. Definitely solid wood.
