1. Try disconnecting from any other router, hardware or WiFi. It is possible that some other network interface in your PC has the same IP as the Rolling Spider (192.168.1.1), which would cause the ping to fail.
2. If pinging still fails after following step 1, check that the Bluetooth network interface IPv4 properties match those shown below (please ensure that the Rolling Spider is connected to Bluetooth and that PAN GN is established before doing this. See the latest documentation below for more info on establishing PAN GN)
- Or, Run below command in MATLAB 2017a for documentation:
>> web(fullfile(docroot, 'supportpkg/parrot/ug/connect-parrot-minidrone-to-computer-using-bluetooth.html'))
You can view the IPv4 properties through the following steps:
1. Open network and sharing center
2. You should see an interface titled "Bluetooth network interface" if the PAN GN is connected.
3. Click on the interface
4. Click on properties
5. Double click on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)".
6. A dialog box opens showing the IP settings.
3. If the IPv4 properties do not match, run the 'targetupdater' command in the MATLAB command window (while keeping the Bluetooth adapter connected to PC) to go through the setup process again. After completing the targetupdater, the IPv4 values should now be set correctly and appear as they do in the IPv4 settings shown above image.
Run below command in MATLAB 2018b for 'targetupdater' documentation:
>> web(fullfile(docroot, 'matlab/ref/targetupdater.html?s_tid=answers_rc2-2_p5_MLT'))
4. If the IP values are still not set correctly after running 'targetupdater', you can try manually set the values.
Please note that the drone must be connected to the PC via Bluetooth and the PAN connection must be successfully established. Only then will you be able to see the Bluetooth Network Interface and set the IP values within the interface.
