WIFI IP address lost

I have just finished building my Lowrider 4, this thing is cool!
I can control the machine with USB via Gsender however I changed the settings in FluidNC to get on my network and managed to loose the IP address. FluidNC will not revert back to AP mode which is telling me the WIFI setup was accepted. I am unable to locate the IP however so I am essentially locked out of the web interface.
Please help me get back up and running, Thank you
I have a router sitting about 20 feet from the machine
Embarrassing is the word of the day!

If you did not disable it, you can try to connect with http://fluidnc.local

If that works, you can run $SS in the terminal to get the IP if you need.

Otherwise, you’ll need to connect directly with a USB cable and run FluidTerm or with the terminal at http://installer.fluidnc.com to get the IP on startup.

If you want it on STA mode, you will need to assign it a static IP, use a DHCP reservation in your router, or continue to use http://fluidnc.local, or you’ll be chasing IP addresses long term

Thank you sir!

I have tried this but it fails to connect

I am going to head down this path now. There is a learning curve for me here.

I will setup a static IP on my network for the machine, I would like avoid this situation if possible in the future.

I think I have most of this straightened out but I have not been able to learn how to install the current “yaml” to the system. I flashed the original when I had my moment earlier.

I got it working again.
Thank you for the help
