  • FR24 on RPI Doesn't show up on network after a few hours

    I set up FR24 on Raspberry Pi and confirmed the activation and it shows up on the "activate-raspberry-pi" page. But a couple of hours later I check the page and it says no devices on the network. So I format the SD card and re-flash it, insert, restart the Pi and it shows up again. Is that normal? Should the Pi always show up on the activate screen or is it normal for it to say "no devices on network?"

    Is there another way to confirm it is actively feeding the network? The Pi itself shows red and green (Power and Act) and the back lights (Yelllow and Green) are flickering indicating LAN activity. The router is also lighting up on the Port connected to the box.

    Thanks guys. Total noob here.

    You should only use the activation page when using the fr24 image. And only once. If you have now done the standard raspian install you need to re enter your details during manual setup sign up.

    Every time you activate it creates another account otherwise.

    The rest of the time you should be using the default information and config page that stars when it is running.

    Have a read..

      In your computer's browser type:
      xxx.xxx.xx.xx:8754
      where xxx.xxx.xx.xx is Local IP of your Pi and should be something like 192.168.0.21

      If it is actively feeding, you should see a page like this:
