Issues with DreamPi connecting to games

Post by clarkdv »

Hey all, my DreamPi was working flawlessly two nights ago, but last night it was acting up. It would connect to the internet or "online mode" in the games but wouldn't allow me to actually join a match. For example, Maximum Pool showed me as online but there was nothing in the list of players, even though my cousin was playing. The Next Tetris allowed me to go online but said "User authentication failed" or something along those lines. 4x4 had errors too. I can't figure out what is going on. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Things to check

1. Dying baterry?
2. Reset router and modem
3. Short in your LVI?

These are reasons mine has failed in the past after working flawlessly
