You people keep screaming about using a wired connection for this product. BUT there's no F'ING way to change the F'ING IP address the product wants to use to connect to the secondary system. WTF!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How the ever loving HELL are you supposed to use a different connection when it's LOCKED into using the first one???? Even uninstalling and then installing again doesn't F'ING change that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've adde

Something else... I powered on the secondary system. Task Manager is showing it's idle (>5% CPU load, 27% RAM usage, NO network traffic) and guess what... MP CANNOT F'ING CONNECT TO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tried to connect from the main in the settings of MP... It claims it can, but then it drops it a second or two later. Secondary system is STILL IDLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 0Kbps network traffic in TM. So, claiming CPU or network traffic is the fault is BS. It also cannot se
Neither system has high CPU usage when this happens. In fact, there's PLENTY of resources on both systems. I've even gone so far as to NOT run ANYTHING other than the OS (along with MP) on the secondary system. Router/WAP is on the same desk as BOTH systems. MIMO router (Linksys EA8500). The fact that MP won't allow me to change the IP address for the secondary system is a big issue IMO. I'm NOT using shitty hardware here. OS is Win10 Pro (1803) on BOTH systems. Also, this beh
For S&G's I TRIED to use the ethernet adapters/dongles I have on both systems. There's NO way (that I could see) to change the setting for the secondary system to it's wired IP address. As such, it would NOT connect to that system no matter what. So going over the wire is 1000% useless. Unless there's a way to allow it to use the different IP address, that's pointless. As I mentioned in my post from early today, the problem happened this morning (for a while) then it stabilized.</
Neither have native ethernet ports. Both have 802.11AC wireless. They're connected to a high end 802.11AC router/WAP. One of the systems only has ONE USB3 connection on it. So IF I was to use wired networking, I'd sacrifice that connection in order to do so. IMO, trying to blame wireless networking these days is lame. MAYBE if I was running 802.11b or g that MIGHT be viable. But, both of these systems are within 3' of the WAP/router. Plus the problem starts, happens for
This piss-poor behavior continues to happen. This morning, my secondary system went to screen saver for a few seconds and the lose/reconnect barrage happened all over again. It continued to happen over the following ~30 minutes before it appears to have calmed down. I don't know of ANY place this could be considered 'normal' or 'acceptable' behavior of software. Especially when the software is PAID for. I also fail to understand how a software company can NOT have an actual support structure
This has happened multiple times/days without any changes made on either the primary or secondary system. Both are running the exact same version (downloaded once, used twice) so that's not the source. Both are on my local WIFI network (802.11AC connections) and both have solid internet/network connections. For whatever reason, multiplicity will run for some days without issue, then I'll have days where it runs ok for hours only to start dropping then reconnecting, then dropping the c
