Can't upload to official AREDN map
I've got a bunch of different devices (CPE510, CPE210, hAP, SXTsq5, AR750, LHG), with current firmware, and no matter how I setup the networking/WAN/LAN I can't get them to let me get on the map. I can download firmware and packages, just no map.
The Find Me! button never works for me, tried on PC and Android phone. I can enter the info manually and the node will show up on my internal map. The Upload button is always grey.
I know it's not critical, but it would be nice to show other hams in my area that there are nodes out here (chicken and egg problem here). Any suggestions?

The Upload button is always grey.
To update the AREDN map requires that the device has internet access or
use the (Microsoft Windows only) Offline Update Tool.
When internet access is available, the 'button' is no longer 'greyed out'.

it has internet access, like I said, I can pull firmware and packages from the internet on the node. Devices on the LAN ports (using a hAP) can access the internet attached to the WAN port. My tunnel server takes incoming tunnels. But the button is always out. I'm sure it something with my home internet because it works for others, but I don't know what to check/do.

I was able to get the Offline Update Tool to work, so at least I'm on the map for now.

if you can ssh into your node
if you can ssh into your node, issue this command and report the findings:
ping -W1 -c1 8.8.8.8

well that's interesting.
well that's interesting.
I'm actually accessing this website while connected to the wifi on the same hAP I ran this command on. So how do LAN devices get internet, I can retrieve firmware and packages from the internet on the node, but the node can't ping google's DNS servers?

root@KG7KMV-router:~# ping -W1 -c1 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes

--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss

something might be up with my home router. I can't ping to anything from my PC on home wifi (or hAP wifi) despite internet generally working. But the ping tool on my router can ping out ok.

Test plugging your PC into your ISP modem, thus by-passing your home router.

After a bunch of troubleshooting and hair pulling, I discovered that the firewall on my modem/router (ISP supplied all-in-one device) was blocking outbound ICMP even though it didn't indicate that it would do so. I was able to reduce the firewall level and now I'm able to upload my location data from my node. Thank you to those who were quick to comment!
