Solved Can't Connect

@fegemo this is much more complicated and would blow up on update. But glad it worked for you

@Substring Did not work for me. Connection status still shows "not connected" although the Box is cabled and assigned an IP adress.

@Ares2502 can you paste your es_settings.cfg on pastebin please ?

For all of you who have your games on an USB device or hdd. Then you need to change the settings on /media/usb0/recalbox/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg.
usb0 depends on your system. could also be usb1 ect. just try it out which one fits for you

So for people who have their games on an USB / hdd device try edit

/media/usbXY/recalbox/system/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg and replace

<string name="UpdateServer" value="recalbox.com" /> with
<string name="UpdateServer" value="archive.recalbox.com" />

edit: looks like this not really works. after reboot the es_settings.cfg is back to default for me.

For people who are uneasy at editing the file, juste paste this in SSH : /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop && sed -i "s+recalbox\.com+archive\.recalbox\.com+g" ~/.emulationstation/es_settings.cfg && /etc/init.d/S31emulationstation start

Thanks for your help! this actually worked. After editing the cfg with vi it was changed back to default after a reboot. Your comand line parameter actually worked!

@Ares2502 That's because ES rewrites the values, so we need to shut it down before modifying the file

[Ares2502]

@Substring Thanks again! Makes perfectly sense, when explained this way!

How do you shut it down before modifying this file from the "share" folder...connecting from a PC? Thanks for your help on this...

@xtreemsurf just run my big command

[digitaLumberjack]
