bought a pie device that needs to connect locally to a laptop via a ethernet cable currently the ethernet connects on occasion then disconects unsure what to do to fix or if there is a way to connect via another source thats not ethernet to fix the issue
It does work when connected to your router right?
I've never been able to connect it to any network
It's connected on Ethernet for. Few seconds once or twice but never long enough to log into my wifi
That's strange
And not wireless either?
It has wireless options but the owner said he always used Ethernet
It's currently entombed in a open scan mini usually you connect to it by using . openscanlocal in a browser
It had worked for a few seconds I was even able to start the device once start a scan and mechanically everything works it just keeps disconnecting
Do you have a display?
Sadly no itvideo
Only way you can access is through the Ethernet
Bad Ethernet cable? Have you tried to switch cable?
Yep I bought a brand new one sadly
