Hello All,
I'm just getting into RGB lights and hope I'm posting in the right place. I have setup a Raspberry Pi 4B with FPP which all seems to work. I have setup the Falcon and static routing as shown in the table below but unable to connect through the Pi with ethernet to the Falcon. I can't figure out what I'm missing. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I don't see this table?

And how are you trying to connect?

Quote from: nealr48 on November 14, 2025, 09:49:08 PMAny suggestions?
  • Describe how everything is connected. Wi-Fi, Wired, etc.
  • Post screenshots of your Pi's interface settings (both eth0 and wlan0) And screenshots, not pictures of your screen.
  • Post this "static routing" method.
  • Post the network settings of your Falcon controller.
This video might help as well.

Sorry my first attempt didn't attach the table and I couldn't figure out how to add the table and text.

    ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
    Pi 4B and Falcon F16v5 are powered.
    Ethernet cable from Pi to Falcon ethernet port
    Wifi setup and useable to adjust FPP settings
    All PING's in FPP were successful
    List of all network connections posted earlier.
    Screen shots below of FPP settings. 
    Static routing is through TP-link Orbi X20. Settings are in previous post.
    I watched the suggested video and couldn't find anything wrong with my setup.

A couple things.
It doesn't look like you are showing the most current settings for your eth0 and wlan0 settings so I am not sure which one is actually the current configuration.
The DNS setting is a global setting and not per interface and the screenshots are showing 2 different settings for that, so I am not sure which one is the current configuration.
You do not want forwarding on your eth0 interface, it should be on the wlan0 interface and you should use Masquerading/Nat.
You stated that you did the routing in your router, but that looks suspect, usually you want the destination to end in .0
A screenshot of that configuration might help.
