Connect Reachy

A) Check your network#

🌐 To communicate with Reachy 2, your computer and the robot must be on the same network. You can do this:

• via Ethernet (recommended for stability), or
• via WiFi (if both devices are on the same WiFi network).

Ensure your computer is on the same network as Reachy’s, preferably via a wired connection.

⚠️ Important if using ethernet: Do not plug an Ethernet cable directly between your computer and the robot. Instead, connect the robot’s Ethernet cable to your router or switch, so it becomes part of your local network—just like your computer.

B) Connect to the dashboard#

Check the name of your robot at its back and type it followed with .local:8000 in your web browser.

Example: for a robot called reachy2-pvt00, type reachy2-pvt00.local:8000 in your web browser

You can also connect to the dashboard via Reachy’s IP address.
Connect the LCD screen provided to the USB port on the mobile base (this must be done before starting the robot). Reachy’s IP address will appear.
Open a tab in your web browser and enter Reachy’s IP adress followed with :8000.

Example: for a robot with IP 192.168.0.100, type 192.168.0.100:8000 in your web browser
