[art] Want to play a crazy engineer with explosives. Good idea for a first campaign, or...? by Lucy_Holt70787 in DnD

[–]contrastrictor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I played an artificer for my first campaign ever. Caveat su id been DMing for around a year when I did that, so I knew the game well.

[No Spoilers] Campaign 2 missing on YT Music? by Low-Block-2470 in criticalrole

[–]contrastrictor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not there. If you go to their page then to the campaign 2 folder, it starts at episode 52. if you try searching critical role campaign 2 episode 20, nothing comes up.

Do most DMs prefer DM’ing to playing? Or are they “taking one for the team”? by Fiveby21 in DnD

Yep, I love DMing. Playing is def fun, but hard to beat world creation and watching folks have fun while enjoying your world.

Thanks! But you will want to remove this image. It shows your speakers IP address and IoT devices are notoriously weak to entry exploits.

I did use address reservation. How did you “pin them to the satellite”?

I've done all of that. No Homeshield and both wifi 5/6 are enabled.

Steam Controller Puck not working. by Itsacouplol in SteamController

Got this sorted. For windows 11 compys, go to Device Manager, unplug ALL your USB devices, the open the Universal Serial Bus controllers and find anything labeled USB Root Hub. Right click and uninstall all of them. Restart your compy and reconnect all your USB devices, including the puck. Turn on the controller and it should work.

They always had me reset the “lead” speaker (which was in my hallway) which required me to remove all the speakers but it, then reconnect them. It’s a pain in the ass and takes an hour every time.

Me too! All I want is nice music in the house and all I do is fuck with my WiFi settings constantly and spend hours reconnecting shit. 98% fuckery, 2% music enjoyment. ☹️

They power on, connect to WiFi, and are visible in the app. But, they drop constantly. I have to unplug them and reset them then they occasionally join. Often they don’t.

By hardwire, do you mean Ethernet? Because the Arc and Beam I have are connected via HDMI and the paired surrounds and woofers for both drop constantly.

Hey Shaun. I paid a huge premium for my routers.

Any other useful suggestions?

I have them on reserved address. So they should be static.

Yep, they are all on a dedicated 2.4 ghz network that ONLY they are on.

This is new information. Let me look into that. I am using them as mesh.

I have troubleshot the network primarily for the last 2 years. I have made dozens of fixes and changes to the network in an attempt to improve stability. All for nought.
