First Skylark OTA features and release info

I know, right!!! LOL!!
It has been 100% happy right until then… I had to head off to dinner at 1800 GMT and though that when I come back it would be “cooked” …
Logged in saw it was not showing ANYTHING in whats new, read your message about Alphasat back end. tryed to look at the logs, … etc. etc…
:slight_smile:

Ok. I don’t think that worked at all - even for the beams where it did actually go down.

I have placed the opak here:

https://archive.outernet.is/images/Skylark/skylark-chip-.1701041326.to.1702021712.psop.tbz2

It’d be a great help if all of you could download this file (do not extract it), and then in Skylark file manager, open “opaks” folder and then select “upload” from file menu. Then select this file, upload.

Once the upload completes, if you now hit “refresh” from the “View” and confirm that the file vanished.

Then hopefully its the regular ota process - about 7 minutes worth of wait and then a (automatic) reboot.

Downloaded it and went to opaks, but mine is full of Zero Byte files … oops!
How can I get ride of them?
Anyway the update file DID disappear! :slight_smile:

I received the update, no problems. The system rebooted, but didn’t come back to the WiFi network it was assigned. OUTERNET SSID popped back up, so I had to reconnect to that. It did not distribute DHCP, but was able to get to 10.0.0.1 after manually setting an IP on my WiFi card. The settings showed that it should be connecting to a WiFi network, not operate as a HOTSPOT. It even had my network name in there with the password. I hit apply and reboot and we’re back in business. Spot beaming, at least here in Midland, Michigan, appears not to have been a problem, though not completely unattended in this case.

:satellite:

don’t bother about cleaning up the pending files in opaks. The update, if it works, will clean it up.

so you are seeing the new 1.2 version???

Yes, sir!

ok. Thats an excellent data point. Thank you!

So, wifi settings got messed up. But other than that the OTA did work, though it doesn’t look like it worked for everyone.

A job well done, sir! Pretty darn cool when you think about what you did! If I can be of any further assistance, please let me know.

:lifter: :+1:

:slight_smile:

Thank you very much. I am just happy that atleast one worked. I am going to see why the wifi settings got messed up.

I am starting another thread for 1.2 feedback. Please do try it out and post your comments/thoughts.

I had to go away sorry, before the CHIP rebooted… Back now…

The CHIP must have rebooted as I lost connection to it…
When connecting back to the hotspot, I am finding I can’t connect to 10.0.0.1 it just times out…
cold boot does not seem to have fix the problem at this stage I can’t talk to the CHIP :frowning:

A couple of others experiencing the same issue. Seems as thought dhcp isn’t working any longer. If you want to try to access your system I was able to by manually addressing my laptop to 10.0.0.2.

I am kind of waiting to see if anyone has suggestions on how to fix it. If you manually did the upgrade and had this issue also I am guessing pushing the update again won’t fix anything. You might follow the 1.2 update thread.

OK Thanks to @tkepe194 I am back up
I had to manually set my IP settings to the wireless … I changed NOTHING on Skylark, but simply told it to “save & reboot”

Once it rebooted, the DHCP started to work again :slight_smile:

Both my terminals received the OTA update as I watched the Tuners, but I missed the reboot. Now both systems only respond with an Outernet HotSpot, and the Hotspot does not assign an IP address. There is no way into the CHIP - - I’ve tried at least 10 times on each machine.

As an aside, neither CHIP is powering the LNA. Ken

@Abhishek, Mine rebooted itself and came back with the outernet ssid. I could not log in with wifi, so went to usb, no devices came up, so I went and got my usb-ttl serial and hooked up to RX-TX-Gnd and here is the log that came from the chip rebooting…

I wrote step by steps on how to get back into the CHIP on wifi in another thread Ken

I fixed this WIFI issue like this
After connecting to the outernet hotspot

  1. Opened the config of the IPV4 on the WiFi on my PC
  2. change it to NOT use DCHP, but manual settings
  3. set the IP as 10.0.0.5
  4. set the mask as 255.0.0.0
  5. set the gateway as 10.0.0.1
  6. in my browser I went to 10.0.0.1 and the page appeared
  7. Logged in as outernet
  8. went to “Network” in Skylark
  9. changed NOTHING as the settings were OK for me
  10. clicked “Apply & reboot”
  11. Set my local wifi back to DHCP
  12. waited for the CHIP to reboot , and connected to the outernet hotspot
  13. connected to 10.0.0.1 in my browser like normal
  14. there is no step 14!

I hope that help the confused out there… :wink:

I guess I could have phrased that better. What I am talking about is news headlines that are questions with a “?” in them. I have some screenshots.


It seems to be only files with a “?” in the name. Filezilla does work, however I cant use it to automatically download the files. After I get these files onto my computer I am able to view them just fine.

How do I do this step? Seems simple enough, but I have never done it before. Thanks for your help, Ken
