Strange- I run all my Pi boards headless (major drawback of using an IMac - no video in without fuss)... I would have thought the lack of a display would be the same with or without a cable... What OS are you running and do you have anything odd installed? You can get HDMI Edid emulators (eBay / Ama...

Have you thought about running an rsync server on the master Pi?

You could run the command on the remotes over ssh if needed and you can throttle the bandwidth if you flood the network or master node.

Just make sure the destinations are different!

Possibly the TP-Link EAP110-OUTDOOR - PoE is possible so no messy power cables.

Around £50 IIRC

Know it sounds strange but is the router thinking you are trying to ssh into it from outside the lan and not forwarding the packets to the pi?

Try changing the port you are forwarding on the router and set the pi up to use that and see if that helps...

MiscBits

Not yet seen any development tools and the Pico is still not on the vendor support list.

Best place to start is https://developers.home.google.com/matter/get-started

Maybe use one of the home automation tools and MQTT?

Nothing unusual about dead links on the Internet :lol: Lots of early links died when the Pi docs where updated and lots of info is out of date. 'Tis the way of technology. You could try reporting the post (use the flag top corner) but its very very rare that stickies are updated / replaced here :o :...

... Beyond that, no ideas. if you need a better solution, perhaps you will be able to figure something out and post it here for other users. I can tell you the nmtui does not encrypt the password (but does leave the file 600 for root only). nmtui is handy is you are headless and do not want to lear...

Have a look at Andreas Spiess on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3XBzmAj53Rkkogh-lti58h_GkhzU1n7U or the Adafruit guide https://learn.adafruit.com/lora-and-lorawan-radio-for-raspberry-pi/overview (US based but covers the basic coding). Things Network state EU863-870 and EU433 are for...

Are you running the program in the background? If so it will have no access to the keyboard... The program will need to be run in the foreground to take data from the keyboard as it currently stands. IIRC you can get at the keyboard buffer using https://pypi.org/project/keyboard/ BUT you need to run...

I don't understand how the above two posts relate to each other.

I cannot recommend the Waveshare Ethernet Hat highly enough https://thepihut.com/products/ethernet-and-usb-hub-hat-for-raspberry-pi Simple to fit - 4 stand offs and one USB connector all provided and if just sat nicely in the Pi Zero still giving me access to the GPIO pins Driverless as far back as ...

Possibly use https://github.com/gitbls/sdm

The SD Copier is only on the GUI versions of the operating system. You can use the command dd if you have an adapter that can hold the target SD Card. See https://singleboardbytes.com/2887/cloning-a-raspberry-pi-sd-card-a-step-by-step-guide.htm for an example. Please test this first before using you...

Just be aware that not all adapters will work with the Pi - make sure it is suitable (not just a generic Linux statement) as sone only come with Windows or x86 style drivers. Neilgls advice is very valid - go to an official supplier and check it works with the latest operating system. A very good si...

Possibly using mkfs and the -c option? The manual states this checks for bad blocks before building the file system.

I have never tried this though - I actually use my Mac and it's 'secure erase' for this on old drives

MiscBits

nmap would be my go to.

Why not hold your code on GitHub and have each Pi pull updates from there automatically? As for direct access to the Pi - you need to talk to the owners of the site and their IT to see what they are happy with (I would not be happy with 'holes' in a corporate network) but: RealVNC has a web access o...

As far as I know, they are still ring-fenced to the end of the year. I suspect that device won't actually be supplied until next year anyway. ... It's on Aliexpress with a delivery date of early December - only the 8GB version currently though. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005006257268863.html?g...

You can also run a Bookworm Virtual Machine or live distribution (from a USB stick) if you want to keep up with the latest software. The GUI is different and you may need to add a few packages if you need to but the basic Linux experience will be there. Remember, thePi OS is a tailored version of De...

There is a discussion on some nodes with issues on their discord forum https://discourse.nodered.org/t/raspberry-pi-5-announced-today-available-oct-23/81656#! It would be worth keeping an eye on there. Edit: Sorry forgot to say I've moved some control to Python for now and use the exec node to call ...

Yup - USB 3 generates a significant amount of interference.

Either use the USB 2 sockets or a short extension cable that is shielded.

May poor old 2012 Mac Mini has suffered this since Apple shipped them

Do not do it as main power can kill, burn the house down and upset the partner. Never take advice from random strangers were power is involved - use a good electrician with the right skills. Look to use a safe mains smart switch that can be controlled by the Pi. For example I use the TAPO range from...

Does your AP issue IP addresses or does it pass the request back to the router?

I've seen issues with a Netgear WAX615 when it gave out DHCP to different MAC addresses with the same host name - never tracked it down as the logging has so much debug junk left in it I just got swamped with messages!
