I have followed all the set up steps and still cannot connect to 192.168.2.2] or blueos.local when I paste in the browser address bar.

Does anyone know how I solve this problem? I am working on a PC  
Thanks!

Hi @Mary-Claire,

Have you completed the [network configuration](https://docs.bluerobotics.com/ardusub-zola/software/onboard/BlueOS-1.0/getting-started/)? You won’t be able to connect without the interface to the vehicle being set to an IP address of 192.168.2.1, and there may be other issues related to fire walls.

Turned out to be a hardware problem. Problem solved.

I had blueOS up and running. But switched from RP3 to RP4 and downloaded BlueOS to a new SD card. No I cannot connect to the blueos with any of the PI’s inserted. I’m now trying to get the old RP3 (which was fully working) connected again.

Heres my ethernet connections:

And here’s my ping:

This is what I type in my browser window: [https://192.168.2.2/](https://192.168.2.2/)

This RP3 was working perfectly before. I’ve tried two different cables, they have both proven ok before. I’m running out of ideas.

Settings says I am connected to enx00e04c3600d5 with 100 Mb/s  
What am I doing wrong?

Turned out to be a loose connection in hardware. Problem solved.
