Issue getting Ethernet-over-USB working about dpt-rp1-py HOT 7 CLOSED

Do you get the same error if you run just dptrp1 register with no other arguments?

from dpt-rp1-py.

Thanks for the quick reply. With dptrp1 register it looks for Digital Paper for 30 seconds, then Failed, then clean up. If I run:

dptrp1 --addr [fe80::90df:46ff:fe5c:c471%enp0s20f0u1] register

I get the errors in err1.txt.

I should note that the ipv6 that ifconfig reports is different than the ipv6 that avahi-resolv -n digitalpaper.local reports.

peterjh@auriol ~/.local/bin $ avahi-resolve -n digitalpaper.local
digitalpaper.local fe80::90df:46ff:fe5c:c471

ifconfig
enp0s20f0u1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

However, I tried both and get the same error.

The address displayed in ifconfig is the address of your computer's network interface, you need the one from avahi-resolve.

Looks like the requests library interprets the IPv6 address as a hostname, this may be because of the network path identifier, which should not be needed. Try to use just

dptrp1 --addr fe80::90df:46ff:fe5c:c471 register

But for me the most reliable method so far was to disable WiFi on the DPT-RP1 device, then run dptrp1 register with no further arguments, and switch WiFi on while dptrp1 is searching for the device.

Is there a way to keep the device permanently in RNDIS mode? I need to run pyserial each time it's connected over USB.

closing this; the problem was on my end.

@peterjohnhartman Any details on what was the issue? I've still having trouble getting Ethernet-over-USB working.
