Quintox Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Not sure if it is my Nano or Windows 8. Nano not stable, at times it connects, many modules do not Start! Also keep getting error network connection. I know for a fact it is not my wifi, as I am in another room. And I can access other sites, but Nano many times will not connect. Or should I dedicate a laptop with Kali Linux? Any comments appreciated.
chrizree Posted August 13, 2020 Posted August 13, 2020 Can you describe the relationship between Windows 8 and the Nano a bit deeper in your case? It's not obvious to me in what way they would interfere. Are the connection problems based on issues connecting to the Nano from a Windows 8 PC (SSH/web GUI) or is it the Nano itself that has connection issues when hooking it up to some existing AP? If Nano modules aren't starting up, that seems unlikely to have something to do with Windows 8, but..... who knows. It should most likely be something related to the Nano itself. What specific modules are you having problems with? Running Kali Linux (or any other Linux based distro) isn't a bad idea, but shouldn't really be necessary. Windows has been a part of my professional life for almost 30 years now and I can't complain about it, but it's not my "go to" OS since I'm always running some kind of Linux (or BSD) variant if I'm not forced to run something else. So, setting up a Linux box isn't a bad idea at all, but maintaining Windows knowledge can be good for other reasons since it can be valuable in engagements since many (all?) clients use Windows in some form.

Sorry I have been ill for awhile! The problem is most likely the SD card. At times when I boot up the Nano, it does not recognize the SD card. Of course like many here we use the SD cards to store our Dependencies that we want to use. Tomorrow , will fire up the Nano again, and see if the problem still exist.
