Do not try to flash any other firmware than the recovery firmware image when in recovery mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_pyrro Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I guess you have to be more detailed in the description of your scenario to understand what you are trying to do and what happens (and in what stage of the recovery process). As of right now, it's not enough information to be able to try to help and troubleshoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_pyrro Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 In what way are you connecting? Using the same cable as when you did the recovery process? Do you get any IP address from the 172.16.42.0/24 range on the computer when it's solid blue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillTech Posted January 13, 2023 Author Share Posted January 13, 2023 yes same c to c cable now im using a A 3.1 to C howdo i test the /24 range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for the network interface that is enumerated when the Pineapple is connected to the computer. The IP address should be listed when viewing information about that interface.

dark_pyrro Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Check the network settings or run ipconfig and look for any IP address from the Pineapple range I would probably try more alternative USB cables as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_pyrro Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 OK, if you connect the Pineapple to the Windows 11 computer and the LED is blue, open a PowerShell window and run ipconfig /all is there any Ethernet adapter listed that has the Description ASIX AX88772C USB2.0 to Fast Ethernet Adapter? If you also open the Windows run menu (GUI + r) and type ncpa.cpl (and press enter) does any ASIX adapter show in the window that is opened (named the same way as the bold ASIX description above)? Make sure to try with different USB cables as well. With a Windows 11 computer and a working USB cable and a Pineapple with a solid blue LED, you should be able to access it.

dark_pyrro Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 That should work. If you did set up a static address (172.16.42.42) when doing the firmware recovery, you could try to delete the static entry and let the Windows machine try to get the IP address using DHCP. Shouldn't make any real difference, but you could at least try. I would probably try it with other computers as well just to rule out any issues with a specific PC/OS. But... I use my Pineapple with Windows 11 as well from time to time and it works as expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
