Hi Philip, Now I tried a third USB memory stick. It has 8GB and it seems working. When I check https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/35603/#tab-network it says connected for more then one hour. So it should be OK for the future ? What do you think ?
... Unfortunately we are out of hardware probes due to Corona
Just in case it would die completely, do you think you will get some in the future or will it go into soft probe only ?

many thanks for your response. This I didn’t see, even if it is listed several times. So will I try a third USB stick. Is there a recommended size ? Is 64 GB too big ? And what if this will not help too ? Due to covid-19 I am working from home most of the time. So it will take some days until I can do the change.
Hi, I never tried a bigger USB stick. But I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work. If the probe gives 'NO-USB' even with a known good USB stick then it best to assume that the probe is broken. Unfortuantely we are out of hardware probes due to Corona. So in that case, it is best to replace the probe with a software probe. Philip
