Things not going according to plan?
Application does not launch

Depending on your antivirus settings, you may need to add an exception for the launcher.

With Avast, you can follow this procedure: https://support.avast.com/fr-fr/article/Antivirus-scan-exclusions/

and make an exception for the following files:

C:\ProgramDataLauncher_4D_Ressources_JAVAFX

C:\UsersNameDocumentsIrwino

If this doesn't work, try reinstalling the launcher or deactivating your antivirus software to see if that's where the problem lies.

I have a "shortcut deleted" message!
If this window appears when irwino is launched, it may be due to the antivirus program.

Check that files relating to the application and its modules are not blocked or quarantined.

If so, you can set up an exception for the following folders:

C:\ProgramDataLauncher_4D_Ressources_JAVAFX

My Documents

If the problem is not linked to the antivirus program, re-launch the irwino application installer. to repair the installation. (no need to uninstall the software)

Wi-Fi router installation

(Only for FIRE VR and SST VR)

  • All you have to do is connect power supply your router and wait 1 to 2 minutes start up and activate WiFi

 

  •  Then connect your computer to the 5G router network (by default, the password is located under the router)

Note: Irwino applications are designed to work offline. If you don't have Internet access, don't worry: the router allows you to create a Wi-Fi network.

Asus RT-N12E router

Routers are automatically configured to broadcast wifi on available frequencies. This corresponds to the frequencies that are least used by the surrounding networks. The Quest headset may have difficulty detecting wifi on certain frequencies.

Resetting the router will not solve the problem, as it will appear depending on the other WiFi networks present when the router is switched on.

 

Steps to set up your router

You need to connect to the router's configuration address. Make sure that :

  • the router is lit
  • the computer is connected to the router by wifi or cable

then go to the following page: http://router.asus.com

Step 1

If this is your first connectionyour router will request a configuration. Select Manual config at step 1.

If this is not your first connection, the login / mdp will be: admin / admin123. You can go directly to step 8.

Then set a new password. This corresponds to the router's administration interface and not to the wifi connection identifiers. Then click Next.

Then select the " Wireless router" .

Step 2

Then select " No "To indicate that no login is required.

Then select Automatic IP address.

Finally, you'll be asked to enter the Wifi network name and password. The password can be left blank.

Finally, click on completed.

Step 3

Once you've refreshed the page, if you come to this window, the password corresponds to the one entered in step 2 of configuration (see beginning of this section).

On the configuration interface, select "wireless".

Set the channel on 10 and apply. Other settings can be left as default.

The headset should be able to detect the wifi network.

then set the channel on 10 and apply. Other settings can be left as default.

The headset should now be able to detect the wifi network.

 

Note: if you choose to connect your computer to the network by cable, we recommend that you disable the computer's Wi-Fi to ensure that it uses the router's network.
