Hotspot not working

AstroBox Troubleshooting
#1

Hi,

I just managed my first installation of Astroprint and all systems are working. I have the offically recommended wifi dongle and in the settings it says that the hotspot is running, but on my laptop the astroboxes hotspot is shown as having any connection.

Any trick I can try?

Cheers

Is it super far away from the laptop?

3 m across the room.

The hotspot does not provide internet connectivity. It only allows to access the box for setup or reconnecting.

Ignore the no connectivity warning, go on it and open your browser to http://10.10.0.1

Aha, now it works. I thought I was supposed to connect over the boxes hotspot.
Im now connected over xxx.local and but the 10.10.0.1 IP gets a timeout.

Thanks for the fast response anyway.
