I am doing a fresh install of 8.2.0, having been on 6.1 for ages. I have had exactly the same issues as you. Installed fine but, while it insists that my Internet and DNS are fine and it can contact the picore repo, both the picoreplayer main and mirror repo are reported as inaccessible. I already have a static IP set, I have tried a bunch of alternative DNS, I have tried some tweaks on how I route out of my network, and no success. I can install extensions from the picore repo with no issue, but nothing works for the picoreplayer repos. I can ping and traceroute to them with no issue from an SSH session on the Pi itself, and I can access the repo directly from my desktop which has identical routing and DNS to the Pi. I have even tried rebooting my router even though I didn't expect that to change anything. Still no access to picoreplayer repos. I did this all over again with the 64bit version, having tried 32bit to start (am on a Pi3B+). Still no success. Downloaded and installed 8.0.0 instead and it immediately works. I have gone back and also tested all the differing networking setups I did to try and resolve it under 8.2.0, and every single one worked for 8.0.0 with no further actions needed by me. I also then tried 8.1.0 and that also worked without issue, can access the repos and install updates. I tried an in-situ upgrade from 8.1.0 to 8.2.0 which succeeded however I then immediately lost access to the repos again. Reinstalled 8.1.0 and it was working again. So I can only conclude that there is either something wrong somewhere with the 8.2.0 build or it has changed something fundamental to the way it works that causes issues with people's network setups that worked perfectly on previous versions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bagwit's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=73188 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
