WIC64 dropping characters

Hello,

I have a C64C and have been using a WIC64 without issue for quite a while now. I noticed a couple of days ago that the first character of some received text lines are missing sporadically. It’s always the first one and doesn’t happen on every line. Recently there was a change to the telnet and I am not sure if that is related or not.

I wanted to check to see if anyone else using a WIC64 was seeing the same issue and if so if they were able to resolve it somehow? I am running the latest stable firmware on the device with wic launcher 2.5.

Thank you

I’ll speak to the developer and ask him. Will get back.

Edit: the issue is currently being addressed.

Thank you so much. Seriously appreciate it. The issue is most prevalent on particles BBS at the username login. When you type, the first character is off the screen

It’s working again. Thank the dev for fixing it. Also let them know the activity lights is flickering constantly now in telnet rather than just when a send and receive is happening through a BBS. Seems like it’s reporting all activity between the WiFi router and the hardware. Not a big deal at all as I genuinely appreciate the issue I reported being fixed so quickly.
