SSH When devices is running a version before 0.8.3

  1. Download the private key from the openpilot repo. Save the key file as a text file and name it something like key.pem.
  2. Open a terminal
  3. Run chmod 600 key.pem (otherwise, the system will think the text file is not safe).
  4. Get the IP address of your comma two from Settings > WiFi > Open WiFi Settings > More Options > Options (top right icon) > Advanced (please make sure your comma two and your computer connect to the same WiFi).
  5. Ping the device address from your computer to make sure it is reachable.
  6. Under a Unix/Linux, macOS terminal or Windows 10 with OpenSSH, use the command:
ssh root@<IP address of comma two> -p 8022 -i key.pem
