"No Internet Access"

Post by csgregg »

I am having difficulty connecting to my new Mini X Plus. It is connecting to wireless router and getting an IP address. My router shows that it has successfully connected and been assigned an IP address. Meteohub is also showing that it has been assigned a WLAN IP address, gateway and DNS server. It all seems to be correctly configured.

I have unchecked DHCP and rebooted as per the notes in another post but Meteohub is still showing "no internet access" in the WAN IP.

Also I am not able to connect to the device from the WLAN using the IP address. Neither from a browser or by pinging.

It is as if the network interface has not come up properly.

Ideas anyone?

I found out that if I take down the LAN connection, then it all works until I reboot when it all goes back again. How can I stop eth0 from starting automatically at boot?

Now my demo version has expired. I have only been using it for a few days, I thought it was supposed to last a month!

Is it possible to get the demo extended - I want to be sure I can get this working before buying Meteohub and so far I am not having much success... :-(

I managed to stop the eth0 starting each time at boot by adding ifconfig eth0 down in /etc/rc.local

But I'm still stuck on the expired demo version.

Try Maintenance and Check for update, then Install. That will buy you a bunch of time.

Curious which MiniX Plus you have as there are at least a couple who can not get theirs to work. Perhaps you could let us know the specs and where you got that one? Thanks!
