There is a way to reset to DHCP again buy using a keyboard on the USB port and typing the following

resetnetwork

also check your network cable

Network connection issue on new ROCK / NUC

Timothy, you may try this: There’s another way to perform the network reset on ROCK. You can connect a USB keyboard and monitor to ROCK and type <ENTER>resetnetwork<ENTER> (no spaces between reset and network). This command will kill all network settings immediately, restoring the built-in Ethernet to go back to looking for IP via DHCP

I was not running the Rock Core on a fixed IP address.

In terms of resetting by connecting a usb keyboard to the Nuc
I will need guidance…there is no screen

Hi
So Roon now able to see Core
The problem is that Roon does not see my library nor my output device
A screen shot of set up indicates that i am missing Codecs. Tried to download and install but not going well.
Can anyone walk me through this process. I have little experience with type of procedure
tks!
Derek

Hey Derek,

Please see here: https://help.roonlabs.com/portal/en/kb/articles/roon-os-missing-codecs#Background

[Derek_Delisle]

i was already there and could not do as directed
error reaching site

[Yaohan]

Hey Derek,

can you elaborate on “error reaching site”?

1. you can not access ROCK?
2. you can not access the file to download for codec
3. or sth else?

[wizardofoz (Mr Fix It aka The Wiz)]

Run a scan with an app like FING to find your IP address on the new network, assuming you are sure if DHCP and fixed IP setup. Failing that maunbe you have a bad cable or connection is not correct.

[Derek_Delisle]

hi Yaohan
Roon will see the Core
and will play music on my laptop
it does not see my library connected to the Nuc nor any of my output devices

[wizardofoz (Mr Fix It aka The Wiz)]

What external port are you using usb-a or usb-c?

[Derek_Delisle]

External power for which device?

[wizardofoz (Mr Fix It aka The Wiz)]

Port sorry edited for the external music drive and what format is the drive?

[Derek_Delisle]

no external port on laptop
on Nuc not sure

[Derek_Delisle]

nuc using ethernet
allo bridgecusing usb 2 options i believe om the bridge

[wizardofoz (Mr Fix It aka The Wiz)]

I think it’s a good idea you draw a diagram of what is connected to what. You seem to be fighting 2 issues. ffmpeg and a library drive connection.

Was rock even an option 6 years ago? Specific hardware details might be an idea too

You are looking for devices…to find the core address
