I am working on a voron and want to connect to the raspberry pi just through the ethernet cable.
Windows 10 laptop with an ethernet plug.
My wifi connection is not good enough to connect with most of the time.
I figure it's too far from the printer.
I can connect using putty. But trying to get to the voron using internet has me "initializing" and "try again" all too often.
Then getting kicked off too often if I do get connected.
I've been trying to figure this out for a while but am too new to this stuff to figure it out.
Been going through some tutorials like this one:
https://medium.com/@jrcharney/connect-y ... 64e1e68922
But seem to have made things worse, ha. raspberrypi.local doesn't work now but I've found another address that lets me connect sometimes.
For example I looked at this topic:
viewtopic.php?t=161194
But can't grasp the basics.
For instance it says:
"To be able to communicate between two directly connected units you only need to set static IP-addresses on both that belongs to the same sub-net.
Example:
PC IP-adress: 192.168.77.1
RPi IP address: 192.168.77.2
The rest can be identical:
Mask: 255.255.255.0
GateWay: 192.168.77.1
DNS: 192.168.77.1"
Not sure how to do that.
ifconfig in putty shows:
