[Elphel-support] hard drive/Disk Recorder issues

[Oleg]

Tom,

The only case when your laptop ( ubuntu 10.04?) can lose wired connection is
when there's no link - the amber led should go off/on and that should cause
the camera to reboot. And the camera won't reboot, right?

Please, try the following:

1) Check how the amber led behaves when the pc loses its ip address.

2a) Disable wi-fi - in case your OS can't handle 2 networks at the same
time.
or
2b) Make it so the pc won't lose its ip address when something is
plugged/unplugged - it's not trivial (if not impossible) in (k)ubuntu's
network manager =)
or
2c) Change the camera's IP to 10.0.0.xxx (192.168.0.9 -> System Preferences)
and plug it to your wi-fi router - that would be the most effective solution
of the problem.

Best regards,
Oleg Dzhimiev
