Safari/Chrome cannot reach DWC anymore

Timothee Leblond

Hi everyone,

I'm using a Duet3 mini 5+ wifi in SBC with a Raspberry Pi.

Everything was going well until this morning while turning on the printer as I used to. I cannot reach the DWC anymore. I tried with different browsers (Safari and Chrome). When ping the IP address I used to connect to through the terminal, it says

Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
92 bytes from 10.243.96.1: Destination Host Unreachable
Vr HL TOS  Len   ID Flg  off TTL Pro  cks      Src      Dst
 4  5  00 5400 9aa1   0 0000  3f  01 4309 10.243.110.59  10.243.25.222

Nothing changed but It does not work anymore.
What should I do to troubleshoot this?

Thank you for your help.

UPDATE: For some reason, I checked the IP of the Raspberry and it changed. This is the reason why I could not connect using the old address.

Any idea why it changed?

@Timothee-Leblond If you have the RPi IP address set by the router DHCP, rather than having a static IP address, it's your router than changed it.

You should also be able to connect via the machine name, eg 'Duet3.local'. See https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Machine_configuration/Networking#a-note-about-mdns-local-network-discovery
