    @Qin-Yang Are both your macbook and rb5 connected to the hostpot?

    Did you use voxl-wifi station SSID PASS on the rb5?

    @tom Yes, the macbook and rb5 both connected to the hostpot. By the way, I installed the macbook with Ubuntu 22.04 not MAC OS.

    I did not use the voxl-wifi station SSID PASS on the rb5. I just follow the link text.

    Can you guide me how to do that?

    Thanks.

      @Qin-Yang You'll want the RB5 to be connected to the same WiFi network that you connected your macbook to.

      You can do this on RB5 by running voxl-wifi station SSID PASSWORD where SSID is the name of the WiFi network you'd like to connect to and PASSWORD is the password to that network

        @tom Thank you very much for your guiding. It works.
        However, I got another issues about the camera. I follow the instruction How to Connect VOXL to QGroundControl over WiFi
        , but my rb5 did not have any video showing in the QGC. And I run the voxl-inspect-services and found voxl-streamer did not run. Moreover, my rb5 software might be an old version since I can not find the command like: voxl-inspect-mavlink. Can you give me some suggestions?

        please check the below picture:

          @Qin-Yang your software is too old for that feature. Please update to the latest, see the guide here: https://docs.modalai.com/Qualcomm-Flight-RB5-voxl-sdk-upgrade-guide/

            @Moderator Thank you very much for your suggestions. Currently, I install the latest version 1.1.2. And everything looks back in normal.
            However, in the process of installation, I met some errors and I did not know whether it is a big issue.
            Also, I found my original file miss some file : "opencv_stereo_intrinsics.yml" and "opencv_stereo_extrinsics.yml", can you send them to me.
            Please check the pictures for more details:

              @Qin-Yang What is the serial number of your RB5 drone? There should be a sticker on the drone with a serial number in the form MXX00000XXX

                  @Qin-Yang , I saw you also had some issues with ESC params not being updated correctly. Sorry about that, this sometimes happens when transitioning form older ESC firmware (which automatically happened during the SDK update)

                  You should be able to bring the ESC to the latest firmware / params using the following procedure : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-esc/-/blob/dev/voxl-esc-tools/recovery.md

                  Thank you
