@José-Quintanilla Are you able to ping your ground station from your M500? 

Did you reboot your M500 after modifying `voxl-vision-px4.conf`? 

Does QGC have UDP auto-connect enabled?

@José-Quintanilla What is the output of `systemctl status voxl-vision-px4`

## Reply by tom (ModalAI staff) · 2023-06-24 05:44:16 UTC (in reply to tom)

@tom and `systemctl status voxl-mavlink-server`

@José-Quintanilla I think one of the services or config files is likely messed up, I would recommend running `voxl-configure-mpa` with the M500 option to get everything back to it's default state.
