@lmead8-jpg this is always caused by having multiple connections to your mesh device. A mesh device can only have a single connection at once. Try disconnecting in your IOS/Android device and/or close all your browser tabs and try again.

There is only one meshtastic unit attached. The computer was rebooted several times. Between each attempt the browser was shut down and I confirmed that the device manager showed the T-Deck not connected.

If you have the graphical user interface running, that takes up the one client connection that the firmware is able to handle. You need to boot into Bluetooth or base ui mode and make sure no other clients are connected to the device at the same time.

I'm closing this issue as we haven't had any other issues with client.meshtastic.org and I've been using it throughout the day without issue

Having this same issue btw

[Alienmoon]

Same, all other nodes powered down, reboot my Seeedstudio Solar node pro, select serial and click connect, I get the message that the Node is now connected but all that is happening is a loading wheel continually stuck in loading mode, even the Meshtastic Icon in the top left is broken and will not load. It's been doing this now for two days on both Laptop and PC.

So after 15 minutes, I refresh the page and see the node is connected as stated in image, but it just will not render anything.

I'm having the same problem

My Heltec T114 v4 is seen as /dev/ttyACM0 (I'm running Arch Linux)
I have added myself sudo usermod -aG uucp my_username
I have disconnected the Meshtastic app on the phone,
I have also stopped BT on the T114, rebooted after
Tried Chromium, it says 'I'm connected', but like others, I then just get the spinning wheel
If I tap just any letter in the Enter your message here, I can then see the word Configuring in Orange colour
But am unable to get past this

For info, even with Chrome on the Android phone has the same error when connecting by BT, always the spinning wheel
Maybe it's the V4 board or the firmware?

What is a shame is that @danditomaso has decided that there isn'tt a problem even with quite a few posts that say otherwise, and has decided to close this issue :(

My issue is identical to @Trebor87 other than my device being a Heltek v4 (WiFi LoRa 32 V4).

No other connections to it, rebooted the device, also tried disabling Bluetooth. When I add as serial connection it just spins indefinitely and says "Loading...". Same behavior on trying to just send a message.

Also on Arch Linux device seen as a serial device on /dev/ttyACM0

edit: I just noticed that @danditomaso closed this in October with a reason of essentially "works on my machine" 🤷‍♂️

Having the same issue with 2x Wio Tracker L1 Pro. It works at times and other times it doesn't. I am still unsure what causes this.
Using Arch Linux I use sudo dmesg|grep tty to find out which serial port is being used. sudo setfacl -m u:username:rw /dev/ttyACM0 connects me to the port which is then visible for me in a chromium based browser. I have tried rebooting the device, disconnecting my phone app and different firmwares.
