RatOS - No network connection available
Verified working RPi 4 B 4gb. Verified working SD cards, SD readers. Have tried downloading the image multiple times, even using different browsers. Using Balena as requested by RatOS docs, produces an error during the verification process every time, regardless of download, SD card, SD reader, etc. Using Pi Imager does not produce errors.
Again, regardless of SD card, SD reader, or download, once I boot up the PI, the OS will not allow it to connect via the wired connection. I can connect to the hotspot via my phone and computer AND laptop, how ever, i can NOT connect to http://ratos.local/configure or http://192.168.50.1/configure on all three devices I attempted. Using the same SD cards, I can load the current version of Raspberry Pi OS 32-bit, and it connects to my network via the LAN card just fine.

yeah, you will NEVER be able to connect on your LAN to http://192.168.50.1/configure , that is the hotspot sub-network

Search for this version. Afaik this is the last working version...
are you sure you downloaded the raspberry pi image and not the CB1 image?
positive
i was told by somone that the 1.18 version (i endup getting 1.18.4) was the only version(s) compatable. Once i downgraded i stopped getting failures and was able to login via the hotspot and hit "skip" to get the LAN active. Its a VERY odd choice for them to disable the LAN in the OS as default.
it isn't disabled
It was on mine. Until I was able to log into the hotspot and hit skip it would not connect to my network via the LAN card. Read my original post.

your LAN is probably 192.168.1.xxx
no, all of my 3d printers are on a vlan. 192.168.50.xx
so yeah now that you point it out that must be why
ugh... my stupid brain
it's ok, networking is hard
its not, im just sick with a horrible sinus infection and havent been sleeping so im not firing on all cylinders
If I wasnt half dead that would have set off alarms right away
While I have your attention is there a way to disable the wlan?
sure
sudo systemctl disable autohotspot
Youre awesome thank you!
