Can't connect to my companion rPI via WIFI

Hi!

I can’t connect to my companion rPI from my surface computer via Wi-Fi. I tried with notebook and phone as well, but I got only “Disconnected” message in QGroundControl’s headline.

Here are the log messages what I got from the surface computer’s QGroundControl:

But I can ping the companion from the phone and from the computer as well (not the same time, of course).

Here is what i see on phone, and the ping with termux:

And here is what I got on computer:


Hi @Sandor95, welcome to the Blue Robotics forum :slight_smile:

Can you explain what software you’re running on the Raspberry Pi and Pixhawk, and what connection configuration you’ve done in QGroundControl?

Some comments on the information in your post:

If you’re not using an ArduSub-based vehicle or Blue Robotics software then you likely want to be on the more general ArduPilot forum instead (or the PX4 forum if you’re not running ArduPilot software).
