sign in blind? no screen.

If your laptop has an HDMI in port you should be able to use it this way without having to broadcast the screen,

Unfortunately usually only high-end gaming laptops have ports such as this.

Other than that, unless it’s doable by voice commands I don’t think it’s possible.

Will you actually go blind if you sit to close to the television screen?

Stun grenades just blind you in this game. I think I got hit by one because the screen was just a blinding flash of light and I couldn't see anything. But I took off running and was ok.

Fueledbyhate - The idea that sitting too close to a TV affects your eyesight is nothing more than an old wives tale based on ignorance. Google it sometime. ;-)

Lol.

Hey there.

So, hopefully you can plug some headphones into your controller, just to hear confirmation of the button presses, though it will be near impossible when using the on-screen keyboard. If at all possible, I would plug your Xbox into their router using Ethernet,
then you should be able to find your console with your laptop and stream. once your streaming, you'll be able to enter the WiFi password and whatnot.

Alternitively, if you have a smart phone, I believe you could set that up as a WiFi hotspot and give it the same SSID and password as your home network and the console should connect to it.

To get to the WiFi settings page, once your console has booted, you need to press L - D,D,D,D,D,D,L,A - D,D,R,A - A

(where dashes are pauses, just to give the console time to load the next bit.

From there though you have to be able to see the list of networks, and assuming you somehow get the right one, you then need to type blindly the password.
