Odd issue with my TETRA

[joshjtd]

So I bought a Tetra back in October or so and never really had any time to play with it much.  Fast forward to today and I am trying to get it setup.  I use the USB Y cable and plug it into my Windows laptop.  The Tetra will boot, the middle light blinks blue for a few seconds the the left light goes solid yellow (I think I am colorblind).  After that the lights all go off and the process repeats.  I tried factory resetting the firmware and I can get it to let me upload the recovery firmware but I still cannot access the interface.  I have tried to set it back to DHCP after the recovery and statically assigning the 172.16.42.42 with the netmask 255.255.255.0.  Neither method will allow me to make a connection.

It should also be noted that when I go to network connections, it will go from identifying to cable unplugged and flip flops between the two.  I have disabled and re-enabled the interface with no change.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you

And as if by some form of magic, it randomly started working...

Or not.  I was able to access it but after getting the settings page, back to where I was.

Did you already try a firmware recovery? https://docs.hak5.org/hc/en-us/articles/360010471774-Firmware-Recovery

If so, it kinda sounds like a power issue, like its boot looping. Maybe try powering it from a different course to rule it out.
