    Hello! I'm Syenite Song — sex educator, sex worker, and throat G.O.A.T.

    I'm here to introduce you to Research and Desire's Deepthroat Trainer. It's a training device that helps you gradually reduce your gag reflex and build endurance. It works with a wide range of toys and can even be used with a partner.

    Paired with Research and Desire's online dashboard, you can track progress over time, connect with partners, and — if you're feeling competitive — climb the leaderboards. Let's head to the bedroom so I can show you how it works.

## Quick overview

Already familiar with the basics? Here's a condensed checklist.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create your account">
    [Register for a dashboard account](https://dashboard.researchanddesire.com/quick-start/create-account) and confirm your email.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pair your trainer">
    Power on your Deepthroat Trainer, note the Trainer ID shown during boot, and [enter it in the dashboard](/dtt/quick-start/pairing/pairing-guide) under Settings → Devices.

    <Info>
      If the device is already paired to another account, have the current owner unpair it first. See the [device ownership policy](https://dashboard.researchanddesire.com/faqs/ownership-disputes) for transfer requests.
    </Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect to Wi‑Fi">
    Hold the button from the home screen to enter Settings, then [follow the Wi‑Fi setup guide](/dtt/quick-start/pairing/wifi-setup) to connect to your 2.4 GHz network.

    <Warning>
      The trainer only supports 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi. If your router combines 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz under one name, create a separate 2.4 GHz SSID or use your router's IoT/guest network.
    </Warning>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start training">
    Choose a compatible toy, apply water‑based lubricant, and position the trainer on a stable surface. From the dashboard, select a training template or start a freeform session, then fetch settings to your device and press Start.

    <Tip>
      See [using different toys](/dtt/quick-start/using-toys) for toy compatibility and setup tips.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review your results">
    After training, [check your results](/dtt/quick-start/checking-results) in the dashboard to see grades, points earned, and leaderboard position.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Common questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I need Wi‑Fi for every session?">
    The trainer works best online so it can fetch the latest training settings and upload results. If you run a session while offline, results won't upload until the trainer reconnects. See [connectivity FAQs](/dtt/faqs#connectivity) for details.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Partner features and competition">
    Invite a partner to view your results and hold you accountable, and use points to compete on leaderboards. Learn how scoring works in the [points guide](https://dashboard.researchanddesire.com/leaderboards/points).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Cleaning and care">
    Wipe the trainer body with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild surface cleaner (avoid soaking). Clean toys according to their material guidelines. Always disconnect power before cleaning.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Troubleshooting pairing and Wi‑Fi">
    * Can't find your Trainer ID? Restart the device and check the boot screen.
    * Already paired to someone else? Ask the original owner to unpair, or see the [device ownership policy](https://dashboard.researchanddesire.com/faqs/ownership-disputes).
    * Wi‑Fi won't connect? Ensure you're on 2.4 GHz, verify the password, and move the trainer closer to the router.
