Hmm it doesn't have an IPv4 on usb1. On the board try:

echo > /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.leases
dhclient usb1

possibly followed by a stop-sharing/start-sharing on the host.

didn't work. I am noticing that in the internet sharing ilst there are two entries for bela now, maybe because of also plugging in the bela mini at some point?

No luck

If it was just the IDE that wasn't working I'd at least be able to work in vim on-device, but without internet I can't configure a language server or use git 🙁

Scroll through that list a bit more , it may be that there are more "bela" entries?

    Try removing /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist on your computer after making a copy of it, then reboot and enable sharing again

    Deleting the preferences list allowed me to enable Bela again, but it still has no connection

      nickcamillo allowed me to enable Bela again,

      What do you mean?

      Btw an easier way to put a Bela online is by plugging in an ethernet cable to a home router

        giuliomoro 🙌 Plugging in ethernet made ide work again. Not necessarily ideal but at least I can get back to work. Thanks for all your help

        Hey folks, restarting this. I'm having a (mostly) similar issue.

        The Bela Mini in question is brand new. It boots and flashes like normal, and the drive mounts on my desktop, but I cannot open the IDE. I've tried both Chrome and Firefox, bela.local 192.168.7.2 and 192.168.6.2 , done everything on the troubleshooting page including trying to launch the IDE from terminal and updating the operating system. I am able to access the board through terminal, but cannot load the IDE in any browser.

        Tried some of the suggestions above, got some different results:

        make -C /root/Bela idestartup idestart got:

        make: Entering directory '/root/Bela'
        make: Warning: File 'libraries/Trill/build/Trill.d' has modification time 264393196 s in the future
        Enabling the IDE at startup
        Starting IDE...done
        make: warning: Clock skew detected. Your build may be incomplete.
        make: Leaving directory '/root/Bela'

        journalctl --boot -fu bela_ide -n 3000

        turned up:
