Good video. But if you want more views, you need to improve your thumbnail game. You should show the product in the thumbnail and also add the name in the title. I almost didn't click on the video because of the thumbnail when I first saw it in my suggestions.
Do that and you should be able to see the difference right away.

The first one was an interesting one and a nice fix. The second one is weird but I think it's not about the network connection. This works as far as I can tell because you can connect but it won't write the update. Maybe it has to do with the hard drive connection or something?
But it was a win, so really nice.
Love the videos but if I make a suggestion, you would get a lot more views if you put what your working on in the description or if there is a meta tag. Most people will search for their problem like PS5 HDMI port not "items on eBay for a profit! S1:E88" nobody knows what that is unless they have been watching the series like me.
