Dreampi was working, now its not

Post by redcoffee90 »

Hi all,

I had a working dreampi setup and as of today it stopped working. I'm unsure how best to troubleshoot. I've retested all cables, it also appears to connect sucessfully. But the new issue is that my baud rate is very low compared to where it was. It's so slow that it appears i'm now getting a "no carrier" error even.

I'm honestly unsure where to start. Has anyones baud rate dropped suddenly to lower than the default?

I accidently went into dream web browser but did not change any settings. Most of the connection guides are very outddated, is there an updated one for 2022?

It looks like the primary issue i'm getting is "No dial tone". I own the official Dreampi adaptor. Is it possible that it broke?

If you can plug a phone into the modem, that's by far the easiest way to make sure everything is OK. You should be able to hear a dial tone and be able to hear digit presses when you press buttons.

Thanks, it appears to have come back to life. I have no explanation.
