In this page we will document common issues we encountered while trying to operate the satellite.

Not connecting to wifi

Description : The satellite unit is turned on but it doesn't seem to connect to the wifi and get and ip address so you can't ssh into it.
Cause : The raspberry pi cannot boot because it doesn't get enough power from the batteries. If you would measure the voltage across the battery it should be less the 5 Volts.
Solution : Charge the batteries.
