@hellska said in Dynamic IP address 'not stable':

The power supply is 2Amp, is it weak for the WiFi to function properly?

@hellska It probably depends on what else you have attached to you RPi, but the specs for RPi3 say 2.5A is recommended.

Your issue reminds me the behavior of my RPi1 with an external Wifi dongle. I never confirmed it was caused by insufficient power, but the fact was I had a poor 1.5A power supply back then. Using scp (which is consuming bit of CPU btw) was causing my Wifi to disconnect many times.

Sorry it was me,one of the network cables had come out of the router,I have 3 routers you see but only one connects to the internet,the other 2 are used as hubs..;)

Its been solved..

@neobium Please use the @+name-sign or click on reply so the user you might want to talk is mentioned. If the WIFI IP is the one you've setted in the config and you can't connect to the Pie via WIFI then your security key (=WLAN Password, WPA passphrase.... ) might be wrong. Please check this first.

To varify use CLI and use ping command
ping your router first
ping 192.168.1.1
or via router hostname
ping myrouter.ip
ctrl+c stops ping command!

or you can try wget command to download some files
wget http://www.retropie.org.uk/
you will get index.html from retropie

Or are you behind a company proxy and want to play some games while in work? ;)
Or is your subnet mask the right one? Is your router setted to only pass trusted devices?

Are you able to optain a connection via DHCP? if yes then use the method @hansolo77 and myself explained. Change the hostname with raspi-config and you can use any IP you want .

Hi,

Couldn't pin point the problem with this, so I've done a new build. The kodi on this build is running at 10% idle.

The only thing I can think off, is ive written a script which is cause kodi to sap up the cpu. Will just have to test as I go along to find what was causing it.

This fixed it for me.
