@bendraper I'm not sure if this is still an issue for you, but you need to get a SIM specifically for data from here: https://fi.google.com/data - After they ship it to you, you can activate it through your Google Fi account using the instructions/activation code that come with the SIM.

@groupo Thanks for this! I am pretty familiar with the AT Commands I just haven't tried disabling bands yet. Will add it to me to-do list

@bendraper Mini can get power via USB so it's not out of the question

@bendraper We use Google Fi data SIMs for all of our testing

@Alex-Kushleyev Thanks for letting me know! I'll have to give it a try

I want to add that M0125 is no longer being manufactured and we use M0151 as a direct substitute going forward. I'll try to have our product folks clarify the website for that.

@Vinny Extremely useful. Thanks Vinny!

After having some issues with a static IP on the VOXL2 Mini above it ended up being an issue with being on the wrong subnet for the host computer to communicate.

We ended up fixing the issue by changing the subnet for the host computer once we changed the IP on the VOXL2 Mini.

e.g VOXL2 Mini IP of 192.168.144.15 will require a host computer on the same subnet e.g. 192.168.144.98.

@Vinny Thanks Vinny for looking into this! I'm going to do some bench tests knowing this and will let you know how it goes!

@Vinny Thanks for this info this is super helpful. I 100% agree about the last thing you said and if I can use the ModalAI power adapter then I definitely will. I got the 7.4V spec by assuming nominal 2S battery voltage to nominal 6S, which was probably a bad assumption. Even so, a 2S battery from dead to full charge is typically 6.4V to 8.4V so I figured 5V input was probably not sufficient for the power module as it was not in the range of 2S to 6S. Seems like this may not be the case though which is excellent

@bendraper Yes, definitely

I tried on a different voxl2 with voxl-suite: 1.2.0 installed
the other one had voxl-suite 1.1.3 installed.

Not sure if that makes a difference....or if the configuration of the voxl2 was different.....

Either way if you are facing the same issue try SDK 1.2.0

Are static IPs over Ethernet supported?

@tom Hey Tom. So I tried doing it in WSL but I can only get as far as this screen

After hitting that last prompt, it just hangs there indefinitely. Obviously since you haven't tried this method I don't expect there to be a solution, but I was wondering if this is a symptom of something you've seen before that may help in debugging further. If I cancel the flash the Voxl does not get bricked and I can use it as normal on the old SDK. There's also no LED indicators that may suggest its getting flash and obviously no visual indicators in the console that it's getting flashed so I don't think its getting very far in the flash process.

@tom Oh, I see Vinny's comment: "on Voxl2, we set that USB-C port as peripheral mode only, so it cannot be a host to any devices such as mass storage (thumb drives), ethernet dongles, and the like."

I would like to know if this limitation is from hardware or firmware (changed something in the Device Tree). Thanks for your reply.

@Chad-Sweet That seems to have done the trick! Thanks
