I have been following the esoterical guid to downloading klipper and katapult. Well once I get past the part of downloading klipper and Katapult and I restart my printer, after that I can't ssh connect back to my printer. Also it doesn't even show up on an IP scanner anymore. Any help would be great!

presuming it was connected by wifi at first?

#

you could try plugging it in over ethernet and seeing if it's picked up that way

I was able to reconnect by restarting the whole process. Hopefully it doesn't give me the same problem this time. If it does I'll try the ethernet route.

i've marked this as solved for now

It did it again, when I restarted the printer it woudn't connect back to the internet. I also tried connecting it straight to the router and that didn't work ether.

I finished flashing the main board. The next step would be flashing the tool head board.

so flashing klipper, no additional steps, lose connection, doesn't reconnect

#

what hardware are you working with

tender dawn
#

manta M8p v2, and a CB1 from bigtreetech

#

yea once I finished with the flashing steps for the main board and restarted the printer as told, I couldn't reconnect.

#

I can still run commands on it through a keyboard I pluged in, but thats it.

#

oh ok, that is useful- how are you viewing the commands

#

guessing printer screen?

tender dawn
#

I have a HDMI 5 lcd screen hooked up to it

#

from bigtreetech as well

#

cool.

we can go through some steps to see what might be going on with networking

#

i may ask for some screenshots of commands next

tender dawn
#

Yea, I can do that

humble osprey
#

first of all i'd like you to run ifconfig which will tell us networking status

#

we're interested in the block that starts wlan0

tender dawn
#

it says command not found

humble osprey
#

interesting

#

do you remember which version of operating system you flashed was?

tender dawn
#

Armbian 25.5.1

I'll try it. I'll let you know if it works. Which might be today or tomorrow. So, thank you in advance for your help.
