g1eagle Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 My ethernet stopped working on the second boot of the pineapple... I tried the factory rest still didn't work... Tried following the unbricking tutorial.. but I can't connect to the pineapple at all... So now what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g1eagle Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Yeah.. I noticed... sigh... Though if it helps any the Red light is on... as well as the green... I wonder if this is because the WLAN0 and WLAN1 are switched.. Edited October 31, 2013 by g1eagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Could be, but that shouldn't prevent you from getting into the pineapple via the eth0 port. And when you go to recovery mode and set your computers eth port to that 192 range you can get into it or no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 I plug in the Ethernet cord (even tried one I knew that worked.) and the computer doesn't detect anything. The website doesn't load either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I don't know if you've solved it on your own by now or not but you might try another power cable to see what happens. Within the Mark 5's power ratings of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxtrot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What Operating System you running? If its linux, make sure that your wired interface is up. Dependant on your distro, the commands will vary. ip link set enp1s0 down ip link set enp1s0 up My wired interfaces follow the systemd naming scheme with Arch, but its possible yours a different if you run a linux distro, so yours could use 'ifconfig'.

g1eagle Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 I'm running windows 7 and I checked the computer the wired interfaces do work, when I plug it directly into a router. Unfortunately I have not found a solution, I think this particular pineapple maybe able to be accessed with the serial cables which i don't own.. I may have another power cable I could use, could someone give me the ratings I need to try? 12V 1.3 amps? (is what I think I read) did I get that correct?

thesugarat Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Variable from 5V to 12V. I believe the stock one that comes with the Mk5 is 9V with 1.5A. But I know that the Mk4 power supply of 12V 1A works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Alright I searched the forums found the power requirements for the mark 4, and tested the adapter I have which meets those requirements (had to spend 7 dollars on a tip *grumbles*). But I get the exact same result as when I plug it into the pineapples original power supply. Green and Red lights on.. no Ethernet.. I tested the Ethernet cord again with a router and even tried a different cord still unable to get to the recovery console.. or even do a factory reset.. Any other suggestions?

Foxtrot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Your pineapple just halts at the red and green? Did you wait the 5 Mins until you got the pattern on the LEDs after first boot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Yes I did Was even able to change the password and access the pineapple. Then I turned the power off again to remove the micro card, as one person said for some reason with a card in they couldn't get client mode to work but with out it they could. I removed the micro sd card. Plugged it back in, and no Ethernet.. Then I began trying to trouble shoot and haven't gotten anywhere.. It's like the Pineapples Ethernet port is off.. Unless there's a new suggestion.. I'm thinking either I'm going to have to return it, or order the serial cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Can you take screenshots of the properties and IPv4 options for your ethernet nic please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Hmm well that's good news for the power supplies from Hak5 but not good for the few of you experiencing this. I'm out of ideas I'd keep working with Foxtrot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one was following the recovery mode steps the second one was when I was able to access it and the pineapple was providing the DCHP. These are the property windows themselves https://www.dropbox.com/s/jxcv3g99qwxechk/EthernetProprties1.png https://www.dropbox.com/s/wbcxgq8wf0ia70q/EthernetProprties2.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thanks for your help Sugarrat! I appreciate your support. I'll keep going with foxtrot.. I'd really love to come up with a solution for everyone who's experiencing this issue including me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Dude that first manual IP address isn't correct for recovery mode. Set it manually to 192.168.1.2 you have 192.168.137.1 in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 As said above, the issue is incorrect IP Settings, try the settings in the leaflet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Sorry Windows changes IP's on me when I diagnose the issue.. Either way putting 192.168.1.2 doesn't work nor does 192.168.1.1 And this happens when the pins are set for the recovery console.. It still says cable is unplugged. I'm really thinking the Ethernet adapter has been some how turned off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Could still be the Ethernet port is shut off somehow... Maybe someone who has successfully done a system reset with the dip switches could chime in and tell us what IP address settings you used. Did you use use 192.168.1.2 with 255.255.255.0 and a default gateway blank? Or did you enter a gateway of 192.168.1.1? Also, Darren and Sebkinne on the first Wednesday live cast, after the 5 launched, showed a USB to Ethernet adapter that was Mark 5 compliant. Maybe some details about that devices release date and it's use in this situation would be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g1eagle Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Perhaps.. There is still the serial cables which is supposed to drop you into a root console? Anyone know if the TTL Serial cables sold in the hakshop work for the mark 5? I've been thinking about ordering one anyways.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
