Connecting physically to Parrot Bebop 2 via WIFI fails

It seems that when I in Windows connect to the Bebop 2 WIFI network, and after that connects to the drone in Linux Olympe environment, by the guide (User guide - 7.7) I get strange error. When I connect in Windows to the Bebop 2 network, then, of course, my internet dies, which is understandable. Perhaps that has anything to do with anything? Below is an output from Oracle’s VirtualBox (Debian 10).

In Debian 9 installed as WSL in Windows, I get a strange behaviour. I get a message, which I can’t reproduce for the moment, that constantly repeats in Olympe’s environment (shell) and never ends, and it says something about position and then comes something like tilt=[number] wrapped in parentheses. It’s like it repeats the drone’s tilt or position of something all the time. It never ends so I can’t code anything in ipython, and this albeit I get a connection to the drone via the ip address provided in the guide from above.

Here’s the ouptput from Virtualbox:

Did you try to change the network settings :

I did change, but without success. I changed to Bridged Adapter and chose my wifi network adapter. I still got the same deplorable results. I frankly don’t know more what I can do.

OK, so I think it comes from the “virtual machine” configuration.
All our tools are tested under native configuration, and we can not certify it works 100% with a VM…

try to check where you ip is in the same local network as physically drone.
