ftpd not working through ethernet connexion
Hi, i'm using an ethernet connexion (with an USB eth adaptator), network is working ok (Switch ping is ok) but ftpd do not listen TCP port 5000 (ftp client do not work either)
$ ncat -v 192.168.0.XX 5000 Ncat: Version 7.91 ( https://nmap.org/ncat ) Ncat: Connection refused.
On the screen it says "Waiting for Wifi..." Will it work only on Wifi ?
I'm using last version of ftpd, v3.1.0
Works for me. I don't know what "ftpd-light" is.
Notice the ethernet connection icon between the storage space and battery percentage.
Sounds to me like your usb ethernet adapter doesn't work or isn't compatible with the Switch.
Do you have the ethernet connection icon here?
well i have this ethernet connection icon in ftpd, but there is a bar / on it, after i get a plane icon. My switch is connected to a local network, but there is no internet connexion on it, the switch do not seems to like that. In he home menu, i have the ethernet icon, but it doesn't stay, le wifi icon appears after a moment. I have the same problem with "ftpd-light" which is another ftpd for switch.
Ah okay, not being internet-connected would explain it. If you have wifi you can enable the AP (access point) mode that works without internet.
I'll investigate if there's a way to force wired mode to stay connected without internet.
