Hi Group,
I setup Pi Connect on my Pi 5 a few days ago and it worked OK. Kinda slow with the Pi and the computer I connected with on the same local network.
Anyway, just a few minutes ago I tried to connect again, but both options, Remote Shell and Screen Sharing were both crossed out. I was unable to connect to my Pi.
What does it mean when there's no way to connect? I mean, I can walk to my Pi in a minute, but I'd rather not, especially at night. Isthere another option?
Thanks in advance.

"What does it mean when there's no way to connect? "
It possibly means you have set it up wrong, or the target RPi[5] has lost its connection to the Internet.
You probably can't solve this without that 1 minute walk, or some other channel of communication with the missing RPi.
Lots of documentation for the beta RPi-Connect Service, including Troubleshooting advice, here -> Raspberry Pi Connect (Beta) - https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... troduction
In my experience the service works as documented. I can access an RPi[5] on the same home LAN from a Windows10 workstation running the Edge browser, and from a 'foreign' WLAN the other side of the city from a 'wintel' laptop running the debian-based 'Raspberry Pi Desktop for PC.
