Omega doesn't to appear to be working
-
@darryl-mays Ok. Can you just confirm that your shipping address is the same? We will send you an ethernet expansion to re-flash your Omega. Seems that you have an expansion dock, so there should be no problem for you to use the ethernet expansion.

So whats the process? Just a case of hooking it up and getting into uboot and running?:
httpdI dont get an LED on my switch and get the following:

@Sawyer-McBride You should connect the Omega to the Ethernet Expansion, and connect your computer to the Omega through ethernet cable. Then, you need to connect to the Omega via serial terminal and do the
httpdthing. If the ethernet cable is connect to your computer properly, the Omega will now host a server at port 80 that allows you to upload the firmware binary via your browser athttp://192.168.1.1.

@darryl-mays We have put in a request to have the ethernet expansion sent to you.
Sorry about the inconvenience!

Same here... Two unities bought. Took long to arrive. After arriving, both are not working. I'm not an expert in such environment and there are several directions on how to solve it creating some confusion. Please create a fixed topic, or a tutorial, with clear steps on how to solve this issue. Since I paid for it, I would expect a WORKING device out of the box and not something that you have to fix it by yourself. At the moment, the level of frustration is so high that I gave up of any trial.
-
@Eduardo-Pereira, can you briefly describe what's the problem with each of the Omega?
-
@Boken-Lin On both boards: The amber led does not blink during startup and I cannot set it up via wifi. What is the solution for that? If I read this thread, there are several solutions, some works some not according to the people. What is the official statement and solution?
-
@Eduardo-Pereira Can you try to connect to it using serial terminal and copy and paste for me the output of your serial terminal? We first need to identify what the problem is.

@Eduardo-Pereira Do you have the ethernet expansion?
-
@Boken-Lin Nope! Do I need one?
-
@Eduardo-Pereira Yeah, you need one in order to reflash the Omega to the correct firmware. If you don't have one we can teach you how to build one from capacitors and resistors. Would you like to try?
-
@Boken-Lin Better not, the risks are too high that I destroy it. Better stay with the Plug n' Play option of having a ethernet expansion. Could you send me one?
-
@Eduardo-Pereira Sure. Can you tell me the email address associated with your order or kickstarter?
-
I know this is an old thread, but I've been busy and am now getting around to unboxing my onion omega and have this same issue. Unfortunately I don't have the ethernet expansion. I was a kickstart backer, what do I need to do?
