Hi there
?
I was one of the first ordering the zbitx. Impressive little thing. I fact interesting using a RPI at the heart of the radio.
With a RPI there also comes challenges in that on can break things of not doing things/updates the right way.
With them video:s describing updates to RPI and display-controller one would belive that all is nice and dandy. And for most folks it is.?
Nevertheless, out of a sudden im not able to do a sw update to the RPI in my radio beyond version 3.021.?
The display controller is on 1.05
Occasionally the WLAN-interface is not getting a IP-address from my DHCP. And even when it gets the IP-address the DNS-settings are not always ok for name resolution.?
For all of you that want to say that I should be checking my router - NO, there is nothing wrong with that. Works fine for all my other 25 odd devices in my LAN.
So Im at a point where my zbitx is not bricked, but useless. I would need a fresh image that I can put onto the SD-card for the RPI. This has been addressed.
Maybe the root cause is that the SD-card is somewhat corrupted after all the hard power outages ?? Im not used to doing a hard power outage/shutdown to a UNIX/LINUX system like one does with the zbitx.
Any ideas ??
