@donhradio posted:The change channel suggestion sounds like a good one. Make sure home and MTH wi-fi signals connect on different channels.
The real solution, however, lies with interaction from the fellow living near Detroit, MI, who designed this system. I think his name is Dave. When Mike Wolf quit, I do believe I saw several notices he was the guy for DCS support. Apparently he does not read the forum. There is also supposed to be a group that took over DCS as a business. I am surprised they have not chimed in on this problem. If it was my business, you can bet I would be attentive to user issues, especially when frustrating so many users. This scares new users away.
Does anyone have the same issue if they use Lionel's wireless app? Trying to look for any common problem areas, as the solution may be the same for all. It really sounds like a software bug to me.
Don,
A few questions, for which you apparently have answers, none of which I've ever seen before Maybe I missed something, or several things, along the way:
Q1: Did Mike Wolf quit? I thought he retired, and really hasn't fully done so yet since several things are apparently still up in the air.
Q2: How did DCS end up near Detroit? I thought it was created in Southwest Michigan, but not supported from there afterward.
Q3: Where are these notices about someone named Dave? I've never seen any, nor any communications with or about a 'Dave' related to DCS, at least not within this forum.
Q4: What is the group that supposedly "took over" DCS? We've heard nothing since a non-detailed announcement or two that a change was coming. Maybe you have? If so can you share the details with us?
Q5: Why are you surprised? In the five years I've been watching this forum closely, and participating, no one from MTH, or this new group, has ever jumped in to answer a DCS question. Until we lost him I was quite happy to have Barry Broskowitz do so in their place. Now Barry's gone to the big train room in the sky and we have no one to replace him. We've been left to figure problems out on our own for a long time, and this situation is no different.
I'm just looking for facts. It seems like you might have some answers we haven't heard yet.
Mike
