Raspi 3 ping

k5at over 9 years ago

on all my Raspi 2's, I can open a terminal window and ping either a IP address for a domain name.

I have to be in root to do so on the Raspi 3. What gives?

Ok that means you are on the bleeding edge of firmware.

Ok install rpi-update if you do not have. See https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update for details.
Then taking the string in shabaz coment you can go back to his level using (warning double check), See https://tech.enekochan.com/en/2014/03/08/upgradedowngrade-to-a-specific-firmware-kernel-version-with-rpi-update-in-raspb…
sudo rpi-update string
Of course you can go back as well if you have your prior string. Hope you have a backup strategy and will need a reboot.
