Newbie trying to get started. no hotspot error

I tried the gateways local ip adress which i got from the the router page and at http://gateway.local while connected to the same network as thegateway, both with no luck. I have only been able to connect to the gateway once out of like 50 attempts of doing the same thing.

Are you able to.ping the ip?

Thats a great idea! I just re-flashed the sd card and it usually takes 1-3 hours for me to see the gateway hotspot. I’ll try to ping and look at the last log entries when I’m connected again. Ty!

If you’re using windows, ping -t ip will ping until you do ctrl+c
