Probe v3 SW Corrupted

Hi team, I have issue with probe 34512, on atlas.ripe.net it keeps showing Flash Drive Filesystem Corrupted. I tried 4 different USB flash disks, all proven working elsewhere, even tried to swap this probe with another probe's power supply + network + USB drive, no matter what I do it keeps in the bad state. When no USB drive connected it correctly shows NO-USB SOS messages, when I plug any USB drive it will correctly detect and show its name and properties, such as Size=15155200 ro=0 SerialNumber=C860008862F0CF610A0D3704 Vendor=0930 ProdID=6544 Rev= 1.00 Manufacturer=Kingston Product=DataTraveler 2.0 or Size=242024448 ro=0 SerialNumber=07210B4816170B42 Vendor=13fe ProdID=6000 Rev= 1.10 Manufacturer= Product=Patriot Memory but still no go. The lights on the probe are [on] [off] [slow blinking] [fast blinking] [on (button one)]. If the internal firmware is corrupted, is there a way how to resurrect it? Cheers from Czechia Jiri

RootViz Dashboard
by Giovane C. M. Moura 26 Feb '26

Folks, [Sorry for cross posting] We’ve just published a new open dashboard called RootViz[0]. It shows real-time data from all RIPE Atlas probes, letting you see reachability and latency between probes and each Root Server over IPv4 and IPv6. It’s a useful complement to DNSMON[1]: DNSMON uses only Atlas anchors, whereas RootViz uses all probes (Atlas does the heavy lifting of measuring ever server every 4min, we just process it and visualise it). We published a short blog describing it too[2]. If you’re interested in how the root servers are performing globally, this should be a handy tool. Any ideas, feedback or suggestions are more than welcome. (We are looking into releasing it open-source, as it can be used to monitor any DNS service -- we do this for one of the .nl authoritatives) Thanks, /giovane -- SIDN Labs [0] https://rootviz.sidnlabs.nl [1] https://dnsmon.ripe.net/ [2] https://www.sidnlabs.nl/en/news-and-blogs/rootviz-new-root-dns-reachability…

missing probe

Dear all, Do you know how I can reassign a software probe to myself? I do not see my software probe. I tried to re-add it but it won’t let me. The portal says the key already exists. The probe may be paired with my former email address. Best, Cristel

DNS Root Server Result Stream Visualisation not working
by Wessels, Duane 11 Feb '26

I wonder if the Atlas team knows that the RIPE Atlas DNS Root Server Result Stream Visualisation is no longer working? A web browser console shows this error: Loading failed for the <script> with source “https://atlas-stream.ripe.net/socket.io.js”. dns-instances.html:47:62 Uncaught ReferenceError: io is not defined getSocket https://sg-pub.ripe.net/demo-area/atlas-stream/dns-instances.html:52 <anonymous> https://sg-pub.ripe.net/demo-area/atlas-stream/dns-instances.html:144 DW

Hello, I haven't changed anything on the small device where I installed the Atlas Probe. Why is it offline? I have attached the log.
