Common Problems

My device won't connect!

This is always caused by one of the following:

  1. Use of Wireless Modems rather than Ender Modems. Wireless Modems have limited range, so I always recommend using Ender Modems.
  2. Wrong channels. All network channels with the same name must match across all devices in your network.
  3. Trusted range is too short. Trusted ranges should either be zero to disable the functionality, or set large enough that all your devices can talk to each other.
  4. Facility authentication keys don't match. Facility authentication keys need to be set on all or none of the devices in the network. If set, they need to all match. Please double check them.

If you need help beyond this wiki, open a support discussion or ask on Discord! If you prefer videos, they can be found on my YouTube channel.
