Sounds like a faulty power supply which is not delivering enough current.
Try to direct connect via RJ45 as described here: https://video.pocketvj.com/AVideo/video/20/direct-rj45-to-your-pocketvj
Then in CP go to SYSTEM SETTINGS and click POWERSUPPLY to check.
Also see here https://github.com/magdesign/PocketVJ-CP-v3/issues/94#issuecomment-708983964 are you connecting with a macbook? then make sure to be on WIFI CH9 or CH11
perfect! thank you

If you are not able to connect via RJ45 you can try the analog method:
You need to have a screen connected and a cabled USB keyboard, then reboot...... ....... you should see the PVJ bootscreen..... hope yes, otherwise check to have a working screen...
when the PVJ is up, press on the usb keyboard:
ALT + F4
now, if you see a still a video playing, type blindly on the USB keyboard:
pi
ENTER
pocketusr
ENTER
omxkill
ENTER
Now you should see a terminal on your screen, in there type:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
ENTER
you should see something similar to this:
address is your ip! should be something like 192.168.2.xxx
You can use the arrow keys to navigate and the keyboard to edit the entries. When finished hit:
CTRL+X
Y
ENTER
also make sure wlan is fully enabled, for this, still in terminal, type:
sudo cp /var/www/sync/raspi-blacklist.empty /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf
ENTER
then reboot the device
I was able to connect once, but clicked reboot (accidentally) and haven't been able to connect since. I've tried other devices and still can't connect. Sometimes, I'll be able to connect for a brief moment, but then it disconnects.
