Revision history [back]

even after the correct settings of ROS_MASTER_URI and ROS_IP to the base workstation you would some times not receive the data and rostopic list works but not rostopic echo

in order to work on this issue you'll have to add an exception in your firewall settings for the robot's IP connection or disable the firewall using the command : sudo ufw disable

it should definitely work !
