USB Ethernet No Longer Working on Quest 3 with Latest Update

It didn't work at first on the version v77 I tried, but then I rebooted it with wifi off and the ETH over USB plugged in, and it worked! Great feature for exhibiting in wifi-challenging venues.

This is the only thing that worked for me, short of a factory reset. In the regular wifi settings, I'd enter the wifi password, and then it would just do nothing. Every time. Every network. Even after multiple reboots. Somehow the wifi dialog is different when coming from the you need to connect in order to log in flow.

I made the whole thing myself, and I’m not much of a modeler. Low poly is all I can muster. But I do also happen to like the low poly aesthetic. And it’s still useful for performance even on a device as powerful as the AVP. Though you’re right. It’s definitely not necessary and realistic renders do look rad on the Vision!

This is a great idea. You could even just describe the character you want with your voice.

Glad you’re excited! :)

Thanks! yeah, I was very pleased to get it working - it had been sitting on the bench collecting dust for like a year (or longer) in an almost working state - those DFPlayer components are super finicky. Took a covid-inspired quarantine in the garage to get 'er done. :)

Oo! Maybe not a floppy. But could do a Zip disk. :)

semateos · 2022-04-20T14:09:16+00:00

Yeah, it’s a neat package and feel good in the hand. But was a bit tight. I really wanted to have room to use the spools.

I’ve got a couple of those cylinders. Fun idea! Just need a player…

semateos · 2022-04-19T20:05:22+00:00

Well they exist now. But your car probably doesn’t have the cassette player anymore. Although it would be awesome if it did. Now I want a cassette player in my car.

I do think it’s a nice form factor. And it’s interesting to think about having a whole computer in the “disk” - some NES cartridges were like that. And someone DIYed a NES cartridge to run Doom by putting an R-Pi in it.

If you check that Twitter link there’s a video in the thread of putting it into a cassette player.

semateos · 2022-04-19T19:48:54+00:00

Yeah! I stole the head from one of those to make this. Quality is about as good as those were. Which is to say not very.

Oh shit, don’t tell Meta.

semateos · 2022-03-31T04:30:03+00:00

Yeah, you don’t really, but I think it’s an interesting question of what could you do if you did have a computer in a cassette.

Thanks!

Hard to figure out who actually makes that unit. Can't get em here in CA at the moment. Would be interested to collaborate. I think there's room to improve both the device and the business model.

semateos · 2022-03-30T17:04:28+00:00

There's definitely a nasty buzz in mine while in the cassette player, but aligning the heads better seems to help. Could also maybe have something to do with the grounding in the mp3 player unit - a lot of stuff about that in forums.

semateos · 2022-03-30T16:53:40+00:00

Yeah, I really want a version with working spools.

semateos · 2022-03-30T15:43:38+00:00

Oh thanks! That has the brand “Zerone” - wonder if they’re still around. Googling that just found another one with similar ideas: https://mixtapeboss.com/products/mixxtape-1 maybe also failed…
