<jfsimon1981>
Hi, is it on ethernet RJ45 and do you have a router/dhcp server ?
<jfsimon1981>
If so it should aquire an IP. If on USB it should get 192.168.7.2 or something like this.
<Guest60>
i am just plugging it in to the ethernet port and it says no network
<jfsimon1981>
ok you have a monitor and keybord attached right
<Guest60>
no
<jfsimon1981>
RJ45 port leds lit up ?
<Guest60>
what is the RJ45 port?
<jfsimon1981>
the beagle board ethernet port
<Guest60>
yes they light up and stay solid
<jfsimon1981>
green/yellow LEDs should be on
<jfsimon1981>
ok
<jfsimon1981>
You plugged to what ?
<Guest60>
into my router
<jfsimon1981>
ok it should aquire an IP address from the router
<Guest60>
it doesn't
<jfsimon1981>
how do you ckeck it ?
<Guest60>
there is an OLED screen attached to a controller board
<jfsimon1981>
yes that's what i said a monitor of some sort.
<Guest60>
sorry i'm very new to this
<jfsimon1981>
Do you have a keybord attached to bbb ?
<jfsimon1981>
If so you can go to a console and get more info from there.
<jfsimon1981>
For example run "ifconfig"
<Guest60>
no the controller only has 4 buttons to control the OLED
<jfsimon1981>
one second
<jfsimon1981>
Yellow light should be solid, green light might blink from time to times
<jfsimon1981>
Means it listens on the network.
<Guest60>
i haven't seen the green light blink
<jfsimon1981>
You can also connect to the router and see if it has addressed it an IP.
<Guest60>
even if i don't have the BBB plugged in to the network it still gets an IP address, but it doesn't show up anywhere on my network when i have it plugged in
<jfsimon1981>
Usually they have a web page and display connected clients.
<Guest60>
i tried that last night and it was not showing up
<jfsimon1981>
It might get a dummy address, though it needs to acquire from DHCP from the router
<Guest60>
ok, where do i go from here?
<jfsimon1981>
I'd do an ethernet wire disconnect/reconnect and check the activity on LEDs first, something should blink.
<jfsimon1981>
Upon connecttion the green one blinks.
<Guest60>
i've tried that. i've disconnected it numerous times
<jfsimon1981>
Won't get solid unless it doesn't physically discuss.
<jfsimon1981>
Yes check the green light is what i mean.
<Guest60>
i know. still nothing
<jfsimon1981>
That tells you if if discuss (green blinks).
<jfsimon1981>
So now you know if blinks or stays solid upon connection.
<jfsimon1981>
If it's solid there's a hardware issue.
<jfsimon1981>
Cable or whatever related to physical link.
<Guest60>
so maybe the port isn't connecting to the BBB?
<jfsimon1981>
Again when you disconnect, reconnect, is gren led solid or blink a bit, just the moment it lights up and seconds afterwards ?
<Guest60>
no it is solid
<jfsimon1981>
ok
<jfsimon1981>
bit strange. Then it's probably physical link issue.
<Guest60>
ok. is there a way to connect it differently?
<jfsimon1981>
Not on BBB
<jfsimon1981>
on your router perhaps.
<Guest60>
i mean can i use USB?
<jfsimon1981>
Link or configuration on the router.
<jfsimon1981>
On a different port in there.
<Guest60>
not sure what you mean by that
<jfsimon1981>
The cable might go to another port in your router perhaps
<jfsimon1981>
Anyway you should get blinking LEDs for a DHCP transaction, tha'ts for sure.
<jfsimon1981>
Try connecting the router end of your cable in a different port.
<Guest60>
still nothing
<jfsimon1981>
You're better to plug a USB keyboard and screen on BBB, login to the console and work from here.
<jfsimon1981>
You'll be able to read network status with "ifconfig"
<Guest60>
how do i plug a screen into it?
<jfsimon1981>
You can also do that if you wire with USB to a computer, ssh client to the beagleboard at its local address which should be 192.168.7.2 from memory.
<jfsimon1981>
micro hdmi.
<Guest60>
ok. i'll have to get a USB then
<Guest60>
all i have is USB C and Mini USB
<jfsimon1981>
I think it's a mini usb right.
<jfsimon1981>
It's side by side with ethernet port.
<Guest60>
sorry i have micro and i need mini
<Guest60>
all i really need to do is access a program that is already on the BBB and make some changes. I was previously doing that via network
<Guest60>
but if i can accomplish that with USB that would be fine too
<jfsimon1981>
you can
<Guest60>
so if i connect with USB and go to the 192.168.7.2 or whatever, that should get me there?
<jfsimon1981>
it should
<jfsimon1981>
I thin .7.2 or .7.6, somewhere close from this.
<Guest60>
ok i'll get a cable and try that. if it doesn't work, i'll be back
