I just asked ChapGPT the same question and this is what I got in return.... Connecting your ESP32 with a USB-C port to xLights using a wired connection is possible. Here's how you can set it up to communicate directly over USB: What You'll Need ESP32 Board with a USB-C port. USB-C to USB-A...

I have re-installed XLights and I noticed that I got the green light on for about 60 seconds. Then dropped out. I'm thinking that I is my extender dropping out. How do I connect them physically without wifi? Do I need an ETH connection? As my ESP32 only have a USB C connection.

OK, thanks. That's what I thought. I only connect it via USB as the DigQuad is not portable. I have checked my router and that is pickeng up the WLED IP address. I'm thinking it might be the wifi extender??? But if that's the case, XLights should still be able to communicate with the...

Shouldn't I still see the green light if I have the ESP32 connected with a USB to the computer? Of is the green light only for wifi connection?

Unreachable I'm finding it difficult to set up as the tree is in the front lawn and outside the home wifi signal. So I have a booster in the garage. So to set up in the home office I have to use the home wifi then when I go outside I have to switch to the extender. Not sure if this is the issue...

Hey Guys, Last year I made a mega tree and I used up all of my DigQuad (5). I have another DigQuad that I will be using for the mega tree start (250 nodes). Can I use the same PS to power both? It has enough grunt to power thae all I'm just not sure that I can use one PS for both .

EEmmmmm, no. Can't find that. I'll keep searching. You mean here?

Thanks. So do I have to import a new mega tree model that has a start or can I just add a star to an existing tree model? Still fairly new to this..

Great, thanks guys, I went with the below: Star 24 - Christmas Props Australia First time working with a star. How should I lay it out? Do I start in the middle and work my way out in a spiral or the opposite. Or top to bottom? I presume there is a fixed layout in XLights...

Hey Guys, I made a mega tree last year and this year I would like to make a star to add to the display. I would like to know what other people use for the material. I was thinking to use this Flute Board from Bunnings. (5mm thick) I'm not sure that would be thick enough. I will be using pixel...

Where do I get the passwords for these? Thanks

Great, thanks
