wasteland Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I just received my TETRA and was able to navigate to the downloads page and download the 2.6.2 firmware update. But when I tried to go to http://172.16.42.1:1471 (on both Chrome and Firefox on both my Windows 10 host and a Kali Linux VM), the pages just respond with "Site could not be reached", "took too long to respond", etc. When I tried to ping 172.16.42.1, I received request time outs. I also tried it on my phone (Samsung Galaxy 8+, not rooted) but it never connected. The TETRA shows a solid blue light and the ethernet cables I am using are known-good cables. When everything is plugged into my host, I can see the networks appear as "Pineapple_73FC" and "Pineapple_73FD". I have my suspicions that the network I am on might have some form of blocking in place, but I truly am at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cap_Sig Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 It is recommended for initial setup you use the supplied USB cable connected to the ETH port on the pineapple for setup. You will either need to do this with the y cable or USB cable and power supply. It is very important the the tetra receive the required wattage or you will have many issues due to lack of power. You will also want a LAN connection via Ethernet cable if you plan to install modules. This is not required to complete initial setup tho. Once you connect to the tetra with the above method, Windows 10 will recognize the connection as a network adapter and should be assigned an IP automatically. You then try connecting to 172.16.42.1:1471 from your browser and should land on the initial setup page. It will prompt you on how to disable wifi for setup as this is for security reasons.

Hyper2009 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Hi wasteland. I have problem to make the first setup with USB so i used LAN. This what happened and you cannot access http://172.16.42.1:1471 is because your Pineapple device is connected with LAN cable so it has a new IP from the modem/router. Log in to your router, find out what IP address you Pineapple device has and use that to your browser in order to access your pine device. do NOT forget the :1471 at the end.

MAC Jaeger Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Initially, I had the same problem on my Mac. It was an issue with my USB connection config on the Mac end. Had to delete the USB connector on the Mac, hook up the pineapple and let the mac see it and configure it automatically as a new connection. Using the default USB connector that existed in the Mac OSX config didn't work correctly with the pineapple. Once reconfigured, you should not have a problem again.
