Troubleshooting
|
||||
It is expected that you are aware of basic networking while working on this project and that you have read up on the project prior to going to Discord
|
||||
Do you know the IP?
|
||||
Can you ping the IP?
|
||||
Did you swap cables?
|
||||
Did you swap the eth port to a known working eth port?
|
||||
Do you have access to another router or switch?
|
||||
Did you change ports on the router/switch?
|
||||
RPi4 - Did you hook up a monitor? Once logged in, can you ping to your gateway? Other IP's on the same network?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Did you connect a monitor to the target? Does it work?
|
||||
Did you connect the PIKVM to the target directly? Does it work?
