Can you use the same passkey on two machines on the same network?
Both of my machines are at my home.

No problem at all, actually even the only way to get your points cumulated as I guess you want.

Ideally donor name, team and passkey on all systems to be the same.

You could even use the same passkey with different donor names, but then need to use the FAH stats only where you could use the passkey as selection (but would not recommend that way)

Right, my old machine as completed a number of WU but I've not been credit yet, it's been 24 hours almost.
My new machine only works when idle and as only done two WU. Again no stats.

Just this morning I noticed my old machine's username is spelt wrong :oops: so changed to the right one.
I thought F@H might think I'm cheating and have not credited me.

My logs on both machines have said WU completed and uploaded sooo, does it normally take this long to update stats?

I am sure it is not a record but I use the same passkey on 55 PCs. (If you are using an organization's PCs, be sure you have written permission)

BTW I get the joke in your title and assume it was intentional. Funny.
