I generally run both of my ROV’s over topside Wi-Fi, as opposed to the wired FXTi box. I appreciate that this is ‘off-piste’ so it is my own doing. I find that when using this method of connection, Cockpit keeps throwing the error “Failed updating ‘cockpit-saved-profiles-v8’ on BlueOS. Will keep trying”, yet when I plug back into FXTi box, the error goes away. I have noticed this to be common between both of my ROVs, one of which is running fibre, the other FXTi copper.
The fibre setup I have a Seaview Systems coversion kit, with a Botblox Gigablox SFP mux replacing the FXTi board and ethernet switch in the ROV, then a TP-Link SFP Wifi router topside.
On the copper setup, everthign in the ROV is standard, topside though I have taken apart a FXTi box, and run ethernet from the FXTi board to a LAN wireless router.
All IP addresses are setup in the same way as using the wired FXTi box.
Any ideas?
