      Hi Tamas...
      you started it correctly and i'd like to ask if you've followed it up with a couple other steps to just check the situation.
      First after the configuration is set up, which you've done correctly, the device usually needs a full restart to begin working.
      After the restart, check 'voxl-inspect-services' again to make sure the service is Enabled and Running, just to check.
      If that passes the check, run 'ifconfig' to get your ip and post it in a web page browser. Among the available selections should be 'VOA PC' and should give you some positive results.!

        Can you try to run the server manually: voxl-dfs-server and see what the output says
