RISK unknown to Power BBG from micro-USB w/ only +5V and ground

Hi bill,

Thanks for the help but other issue comes up!!

I got the power set up and my BBG can boot (LEDs lite up ok) but I can not connect/access to BBG with ethernet cable !



I try to set static IP adress <LINK_TEXT text=“http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to … one-black/”>http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to-be-static-on-the-beaglebone-black/</LINK_TEXT> for BBG but with no luck.



Is there any advise for this setup or better to switch to a BBB where a power plug is ready made!



My application is a FA project; eventually I need the BBG to be standalone without PC/NB.
