Hello,
I’ve been testing my Rebocap trackers for two full days now. When I play in my bedroom, close to my PC, everything works very well, the tracking is smooth.
I’m really satisfied with the results in that small room, even if I don’t have much space to move.
However, when I try to play in my living room, which is about 10 meters away from my PC, the tracking/sign becomes unstable.
Even though I finally have space to move freely, the connection between the USB dongle (still plugged into my PC) and the trackers becomes very weak. Sometimes, the signal drops to 0%, 5%, 10%, or 30%, and that causes my limbs to glitch or clip into each other.
I tested my internet connection and it’s fast and stable: 220 Mbps download, 170 Mbps upload, and 4 ms ping.
I’m thinking about two solutions:
-Buying a 10-meter USB 3.0 extension cable with signal amplification, to bring the dongle physically closer to the trackers in the living room. (so no more issues I guess?)
-Using an old laptop in the living room to run the Rebocap software and send the data to my main PC over the network, since my laptop is connected via Ethernet to the router, and my desktop PC (running VRChat) is connected with wifi.
Do you think the second solution is possible?
I know that it would be better to buy the USB extension instead but having a cable going through my house is annoying.
