3B+ just stopped working?!

I've got a 3B+ who's only job is running pi-hole for my home network. It is behind a UPS. Plus I have a cute little Adafruit OLED display on it that shows four lines of text (IP address, how many clients connected, how many ads blocked, etc.) This morning I suddenly started having web access problem...

Re: where are change notes found?

Thank you for that link, it was what I was looking for. By clicking on the actual commit items I'm able to see the additions/removals from the codebase. Too bad there isn't a more non-techie version for non-programmers but that's fine I guess.

Re: where are change notes found?

So then, to make my point, within the last two days, there was an update to raspi-config. Can anyone tell me specifically what was changed?

where are change notes found?

Just installed an update to raspi-config and tried to find where the release notes are but couldn't find them. Is there a specific spot where any change made to the kernel and associated modules like raspi-config are noted?

Re: frustrated: how to create backwards router on 3B+ ??

Okay, I followed several guides and with a mishmash of configs I managed to get the pi to act as a router for the ethernet port over wifi. It actually works, since I disabled my laptop's wireless and plugged in an ethernet-to-usb adapter, then plugged it in the pi and got an IP address and had Inter...

frustrated: how to create backwards router on 3B+ ??

So I say "backwards" because all the googling I've found shows several completely different ways to turn the Pi 3B+ into a bridge or router by using a wired connection to the Internet and allowing wireless clients to connect to it. I want it the other way around. And since you're asking yourself "wh...

Re: Assign diff IP to eth0 than wlan0 on 3B+ ?

Since the direct wired Ethernet connector option works, I'm wondering if there is a way on the Pi to use DHCP/IPtables and configure the eth0 port as a router that can issue the cam an Ip address, yet leave the wifi on wlan0 alone so it can still connect to my home network. Basically turning the Pi ...

Assign diff IP to eth0 than wlan0 on 3B+ ?

I've confused myself into a corner. Trying to hook up a security cam in the garage to a Pi 3B+ running MotionEye application (not O/S) on Stretch. The cam has a built-in wireless access point (AP) and an Ethernet connection for wired access. Simplistically, that tells me that it wants to be "the ser...

Re: Rasp 3B+ download speed capped to 63Mbit/s :-/

I assume you know that the 3B+ gigabit LAN shares the USB 2.0 buss and is thus capped at about 224 Mbps instead of the max 950 Mbps. Interesting read here: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2018/raspberry-pi-3-b-review-and-performance-comparison Also read this thread that suggests bad gigabit LAN ca...

Re: Raspberry Pi 3 B+ lockups

The original "fix" with lowered RAM speed from 500 to 450 seems to have worked for me. Of course, all I use it for is to run Pi-Hole for the network.

Re: Dead RPi 3 B+ after short circuit pin 1 and 2 of GPIO

Two thoughts: 1. you are definitely not faster than the speed of electrons, so "less than a second" made me LOL 2. it sounds strange, but try putting it in a ziplock baggie in your freezer for about 30 minutes. The onboard power regulator has a self-healing fuse. If this doesn't work, just be glad i...

Re: Raspberry Pi 3 B+ lockups

My personal opinion is that if the SW fix doesn't fix the issue, i.e. you are still unable to run stably at 1400Mhz, then I believe you would be entitled to a refund or replacement from the original vendor since the board cannot reach it's claimed clock speed. Most vendors will need proof that ther...

Re: Raspberry Pi 3 B+ lockups

The update/upgrade dropped my RAM freq to 450 but kept my SoC speed at 1400 and I've been stable for several days now, where before it always locked up within a few hours.
