Cannot push to device in local mode

Hardware is a Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+. I’ve confirmed local mode is enabled on the device as you can see in the logs. Connection is via wifi.

Device may not have local mode enabled. Check with:
  balena device local-mode <device-uuid>

local@Ubuntu:~/local-distro-ui$ balena device local-mode ab4cee5
Local mode on device ab4cee5 is ENABLED.
To disable, use:
  balena device local-mode ab4cee5 --disable

This has resolved itself as of today.

Hi @lachlan,

Thanks for the update. Good to hear that you are able to connect to the device again.

Just out of curiosity, was the device correctly able to show local mode on the dashboard after the local-mode <uuid> command? Please do reach out if something similar surfaces in future.
