Dear All, 

Our Atlas probe with ID 35603 is down since about 6 days. It’s a V3 probe. Model: TL-MR3020(UN) Ver: 1.9 ; S/N: 2176197008302. When I realised it this atlas probe was not ping-able. ( due to a power outage ) 
I followed the instructions https://labs.ripe.net/Members/philip_homburg/troubleshooting-ripe-atlas-probes-usb-sticks with solution 1. 
Unfortunately it didn’t work. During the time without USB stick the probe was on the network reachable, getting the IP from DHCP. But later on, it wasn’t ping-able.
So I tried solution 2. I took a different USB stick as described. After a while the probe is now ping-able. ( 2001:628:21f0:911:c225:e9ff:fea8:6530 , 147.125.100.34 , DNS name: ripencc.iiasa.ac.at ) 
But when I go to https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/35603/  I see it is offline. The web page says „no flash drive“ and „trying to connect“. 

What else can I do ? It seems, that the TP-Link device itself isn’t broken. Shall I try with a different USB stick. (a third one) I took a 64MB USB stick. Was this maybe too big ? I saw the original stick had only 1 MB. The documentation says it should have at least 4GB. 
Any  ideas ?  Any feedback is welcome. 


Kind regards 
Hans
