Hi All,

I’m having a problem connecting to the BBB using either USB or ethernet cable.

To confirm, I downloaded an image of a normal ubuntu flasher and that was fine. I could connect to http://192.168.7.2:22 using Putty no problems.

I’ve tried 2.0.8 and 2.1.0b and had no luck connecting on either image. I had been using this BBB before and only re-flashed because I’m a lazy idiot.
Any ideas?

I flash the image to sd using Etcher, hold down boot switch before plugging into usb. Wait till I see activity on the leds and then release. The back-forth pattern goes on for 5 mins, then solid, then out. Remove power and SD card and re-power with USB. Can’t connect - even after 10 mins.

Has the local IP changed?

Thanks for any help.

Don’t worry - I found out it was missing Beaglebone Drivers for Windows 7.
