Static IPs on Zero Default Image

[sealmindset]

This is an intermittent problem. Can't ping the Zero's unless they have an IP Address in the same subnet as the controller. This issue varies, but I'm always using the same RPi 3b with 32GB SD. The difference is after I reimage the SD to start from scratch.

The controller after the initial boot doesn't attempt to get an IP Address.

Did the following to fix it:
dhclient -v -r br0

The same problem with the Zeroes.
controller: minicom pX
Zeroo:: sudo dhclient -v -r usb0

The Cluster HAT images set a hostname that you can access via (p1.local ~ p4.local).
Are you using the Cluster HAT? Otherwise, how are you hooking everything up?

I have the Clusterhat v2.0 with 4 RPi Zero W running with 16GB sd c10 and the controller is an RPi 3b with 32GB sd c10. I'm running the images provided by Clusterhat and following the instructions from the same. The images are controller - Desktop Controller, Zeros the p1 to p4 directly from Clusterhat website.
