I keep getting the error “We can’t connect to the Internet, check your network!” when I run the Blinkt installed on a Pi3 with latest s/w.
The Pi is definitely connected to wired and wireless connection
I have it running on a zero which I installed a couple of weeks ago
May be a localised connectivity problem with the Python Package Index, it seems to have those from time to time. Can you navigate to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/blinkt in your Raspberry Pi browser?
yes can do that and can down load the .z file
Might be worth trying:
sudo pip install blinkt
Which will get you the library, at least, then examples are here: https://github.com/pimoroni/blinkt/tree/master/examples
Yes that worked fine all up and running now thanks
