I'll take it!
Next i hope they let the damn thing remember wifi passwords after restarts. It seems to have been doing that more recently, which makes me hope for it to eventually treat WiFi like a phone or laptop or tablet etc does
I’ve had two release day LCD and a release day OLED. None of them have ever forgotten their WiFi password running the stable OS release.
I run beta branch on OLED and no forgor passwords yet. I wonder why it's so hit or miss with others.
Swapping between home Wi-Fi and mobile hotspot at work regularly.
Cool beans. Good for you.
No, I'm pretty sure you're running into a much more obscure problem than you realize. I've never had a single password be forgetten, nor has any other person I know with a steam deck.
Wow. Let me guess. People don’t go out of their way to help you much do they, Captain Sunshine?
You have a very specific problem with your Deck/Build. Open a case with Valve and fix your problem instead of bitching on the internet.
Saying "it doesn't happen to me so its not a problem" is not helping anyone. Sunshine.
In this specific conversation, saying three of my decks made at different times that don’t have a problem means one in four are experiencing an issue. There’s also another person saying the same thing in this thread. So 4/5 dentists agree you have a problem.
Show me the Zen Desk ticket with hundreds of people having the same WiFi issue. I looked, couldn’t find one. It’s a problem for you that you and Valve need to fix, not complain about in an otherwise nice feature story.
I love watching people over reacting. I'm sorry if i said something disrespectful to your lord and savor.
I hope your day gets better.
I've had it act like it forgot the WiFi password, but I think it was just a connection issue. I think I just backed out without entering anything and tried reconnecting, and it reconnected fine with the stored password.
