Hello, I tried to control my Gopro hooked on the Pi4 with USB cable thru the BlueOS terminal but I got an error. It works fine under Ubuntu but not under BlueOS. I’m not a linux specialist, so sorry if my question seems to be fool Here is the linux command I used : curl “[http://172.x.x.x/gp/gpControl/status](http://172.x.x.x/gp/gpControl/status)" Under ubuntu it returns the status of the Gopro but under BlueOS I got that : **We’re sorry but BlueOS doesn’t work properly without JavaScript enabled. Please enable it to continue.** Do you know why ? Do you think it would be possible to control a Gopro that way ? And then how to get rid of that error ? All the best ! ---

Hi, It sounds like the IP you entered in the terminal is BlueOS’s and not the Gopro’s. I assume that is the issue. ---

Hello, I retrieved the Gopro IP thru the Network Information. Pinging the gopro thru the terminal works fine. Any other idea ? ![Screenshot 2023-02-23 at 10.18.44](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/bluerobotics/original/2X/a/ac40261328671736abb7b860734b2fc4f99f9a46.jpeg) ---

Yes, that is the issue! that is BlueOS`s IP in the usb0 network created by the Gopro, not the Gopro’s IP. ---

Sorry William but I don’t catch the difference. Under Ubuntu, If I perform an ‘ip’ command I retrieve the IP address of the GoPro under USB0 and I can use the address with Curl, the GoPro receive the command.I works. Under BlueOS, I do exactly the same process and it does not work. Why ? The IP address I retrieve with ‘ip’ command in the terminal is the same I got under the Network tab. ---

As long as I know the GoPros address always ends with 51. So in your case 172.24.121.51 would be the proper address to send you request to.
