Current Issue
When editing the port brightness (or maybe multiple props brightness) while data is being streamed at a B8 after 1 or more edits of the brightness the board will reset and lose all port settings and also the IP address that has been set. This has occurred tonight on 2.5.6 and has occurred previously possibly on 3.5.4. Streaming rate is 270kbps . About 2300 pixels across all 8 outputs.
Solution
This was tested on the latest firmware and unable to be replicated.
2.5.6 is nearly a year old and 19 firmware updates old, user should update to the latest firmware
Baldrick Board System State

Wrong pixels are lighting up when played from FPP
Normally this indicates that something has changed on the layout but FPP hasn't been updated, if you can re-render the sequence then save, then FPP Connect and make sure UDP Out is set to ALL.
Wrong pixels are lighting up when played from xLights
Normally this indicates that something has changed on the layout but the controllers hasn't been updated, if you can re-render the sequence then save, then go to the controllers tab in xLights and click Upload Outputs to the relevant controller.
Unable to connect to board
Whilst this might be out of my power to solve, double check that the power cables are thick enough for the controller, that the ethernet is going to a router or switch. (The Baldrick won't work connected directly to the computer if it doesn't have a DCHP server).
If that doesn't work swap out the ethernet cables are those things can be finicky, take a look at the ethernet power, both lights green and orange should be flashing.
