Hi, lately I am having some trouble browsing the M4 directories over wifi.  Sometimes I enter a folder and it returns me to the root of the micro sd, other times it takes a long time and the browser ends up giving an error, I do a Netstat and it returns Idle status and I have to restart the M4.  This problem is only accessing via wifi, using any frontend I can move without problems.  Before I had no problem using wifi ...


Thanks.

Is the signal strong enough? I ended up adding an access point in the room the CPC is in mainly for the M4. While my phone and laptop were generally OK, the M4 would often struggle and you could hear it hunting for wifi if you turned the CPC's volume control up. Going forward, perhaps the M4 needs a better aerial configuration.

Yes the signal is good. I have the router and the cpc at the same room.


At this moment Netstat gives me 0xBA in signal.

By accident I did switch the M4 ROM off in the menu.


Now, how can I switch it on again?


Please help.

Should be the same, Power Cycle the machine ! Or what did you do on the web interface ? took out the check at ENABLED on ROMS ?

Yes, I took out the upper hook in the ROMs menu.
Now I can't access the M4 any longer using the PC Web interface.

Solution found: Yes, the web interface still works. Must have had a weak network for quite some time.
Thanks for your help.  :) :) :)


However: Deleting the hook from "Enabled" does not really disable the ROMs.  :-\

Ok, but using the M4 RESET button also works (just wanted to mention that) ;)

Not if you switch the ROMs off in the Web interface, tried it couple of times. M4ROM stays off, the others are on again. Need to look at it again tomorrow.
