Hello All,
I cannot get Xlights to see my FPP. The FPP is online and I can navigate to it via web browser using its IP address.
When I launch Xlights and goto Tools -> FPP connect -> It does not discover the FPP.
The FPP is on the same network as my laptop so the IP (subnet) is the same.
I've confirmed the time/date is correct on the FPP.
When I open FPP connect and click Add FPP and enter the IP, nothing connects.

Xlights Version (Apple/Macbook) 2023.14.2
I updated the OS of the FPP to the most recent (7.something) and then it is found in FPP Connect but when I upload a FSEQ, the FPP connect window closes abruptly without uploading the sequence. So I rebooted the FPP and it never came back up in the web browser. I confirmed the right IP address with my router, and there are status led lights, my router shows upload and download activity, but I cannot access it via browser or FPP connect.

Open a command type window and ping your fpp. Try by name and try by IP number. Can you find it?
