Beloader pro - green/red flashing lights

riceonice

I followed the video setup.
After the configuration/remote play code linking
- connect the beloader to the front of the PS5
- connect Ethernet cable
- connect beloader ext-power to back of PS5
- click the update/on button

At this point, the beloader pro will flash blue, green and then red.

It doesn’t stay green like in the video.
What is the issue?
What am I doing wrong?

Odd

I had a similar issue but mine would not  power on

So instead of using the PS5 to power it i plugged mine into USB hub so it has it own power then i plugged my xim into the boloader  pro and it works like  a charm.


So mines not connected to PS5 i think it requires more power then ps5 can give


Also make sure u press the update button on side to make sure it has latest update.

My ps5 and boloader are plugged directly into a switch which then connects to router.



Took me a while to get it going but its truly fantastic

Even if I plug the beloader pro into a 5V3A plug, the lights still flash the same.
- blue and then green and then red.

My beloader pro has its own Ethernet cable connected to the router.

Did you update the firmware when you plugged it into your computer to do the configuration? I thought the manual said no need to update the beloader pro, it comes with the latest firmware.

replace the internet cable also try a different port on the router also replace how its connect to the mains, ie a different cable to or USB hub

did you do the update by pressing update button?


I restarted my PS5 so many times and re did it about 7 times to get mine to work.


i would say its not getting a internet connection? that's a guess

PS5 is Ethernet to?


sounds silly but double check the ps5 is not connect via wirless mine did this a while back.

Yes I press the update button on the side after I connect the beloader pro to the USB ports. Also tried doing the usb hub like you suggested.  No luck.  I also restarted the ps5 multiple times too Also swapped the ps5 and beloader pro connections to the router.   Both have wired ethernet connection to the router. That didn’t work either

I am guessing here but sounds like the loader i snot getting a internet connection?


maybe wipe it and start from scratch ?


delete the config that s stored on the pc/laptop and start over ?

riceonice

Where is it stored on the laptop?

johnrobsonuk1

am not sure i have seen it mentioned sum where just cant think i am looking


uninstall re install software

Maybe restore laptop pc to before you installed bolader software.

Config file is def store on laptop some where :p

I presume if you just went into config set up and re ran it it would create a new config over writing the older.

Again i did this multiple times

i would to that complete start over from scratch following the video i kept closing the remote play page then realizing u need to leave that open


Follow the video so slowly  i guess

oh i closed the 8-digit remote play code after the config setup was done.i didnt realize you need to plug into the PS5 after too!

- will try the whole process over again later today.
- and will make sure to plug into PS5 after config is setup (and DONT CLOSE the remote play 8-digit screen)

ill report back once i have an update.
