good day sir, very sorry that yo uare having issues 🙁

we currently have an issue where two devices from the same network are having problems connecting.

can you please tell me if both you and your wife can create a host game without any problems?

I have been able to host my own session but only for a minute or so before it crashes out of the game entirely.

and your wife?

also are you on the same network?

lilac slate

She has tried host to the same effect

We have some issues with local network connectivity for now. It's on our to fix list and we are workign hard to get it out, but it could take some time :(.

Three thress things I've seen so far that helped other people are:
Disabling riot Vanguard (if you play riot games)
Setting up DMZ in router to establish connection
Just simply connecting two devices with wired connection

I have no clue what those fixes are I don't know about DMZ or anything router related.

gotcha, sorry about that

#

#

if one of the devices (or both) are on wifi, do you hink you can connect them via ethernet to the internet?

#
