Hello everyone,
Previously, our station 3259 was based on a Ubuntu 20.04 installation on a laptop with Satnogs client. However recently, the laptop had a hardware failure. In its place, we are trying out using a RPi following the installation method found here: https://wiki.satnogs.org/Raspberry_Pi
The hardware was tested in the lab with success and observations could be made, before moving it to where the station was located. At the station, the internet network is different from the lab. Interestingly, the station can connect to the network, appear as online https://network.satnogs.org/stations/3259/, but the observations are all failing.
A dump of the journalctl log showings tests done in lab and the next boot being at the station:

<h3>SatNOGS Network</h3>
SatNOGS Network is a global management interface to facilitate multiple ground station
operations remotely. An observer is able to take advantage of the full network of
SatNOGS ground stations around the world.
<h3>Observations</h3>
The network is open to anyone. Any observer is able to utilize all available Ground Stations
and communicate with Satellites. All observations results are public
and all data are distributed freely under the
<a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/" target="_blank">Creative Commons Atribution-Share Alike</a> license.
<h3>Ground Stations</h3>
Whether you own satellite ground station equipment or you want
to build one you can head to
<a href="https://satnogs.org" target="_blank">SatNOGS Project site</a> or our
<a href="https://wiki.satnogs.org" target="_blank">wiki</a>
to get up to date documentation and info on how to build a SatNOGS ground station (still under development).
<h3>Coding</h3>
Fluent in Python and/or JS? We need you to help with satnogs-network web application. Take a look to our
<a href="https://gitlab.com/librespacefoundation/satnogs/satnogs-network" target="_blank">source code</a> or visit
our <a href="https://gitlab.com/librespacefoundation/satnogs/satnogs-network/issues" target="_blank">issues tracker</a>
to start filling bugs, feature requests or code fixes for existing ones.
