[PROBLEM] Can't connect to RPI

[steadman]

Hello Lenny,
In my opinion it is strange 172.24.1.1! Is it possibile to have a look of the results of the Address searcher?
I had a very good results with https://www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/. It is not necessary install it: you can run it as live program.
The problem should be limited to:
-The network (including: switch, router, cabling, DHCP, DNS, firewall(if any))
-The Rpi(ethernet port, the system itself, SD card)
-The Firmware (not correctly downloaded, non corretcly burned on SD)
Then we have to examine all the possibility to troubleshoot correctly.
So, if you wish, let us start from the network, trying with the IP Andress research and the ethernet cable.
Best regards and good luck,
Francesco

Hi Francesco,
Thanks for your help. Everything seems to work perfectly except that the RPI doesn't show up. I have tested the ethernet cable. I tried to send the file with the scanning results, but the site won't let me send it.  Any ideas?

Hello All,
I felt sure there was nothing wrong with the system, so I went out and bought a new Micro SD card and it turned the trick. Please know that I had already bought a new one previously, but it was defective and apparently RPI Imager did not pick that up when I made an image. I am not sure what went on, but now I have a working image on my PC, although my Android phone has not been able to  connect yet. Thank you all for the willingness to help. I am so happy to have Moode back up and running- the quality of sound brings tears to my eyes.
