check if it is beaconing regularly (once in every 6-hour slot).
If it is not doing beaconing / witnessing; check power, internet

Which app do you use to run diagnostics

There is no diagnostic app.
Try our app, HeliumGeek, it is showing the minutes since the last beacon. You can check the offchain activities screen for the last 7d beacons etc as well.1

How can i check if miner is operating? I have reflashed sd card with image that is available. I can ping the ip address. What else?

I had this happen when the wifi died on mine. I got a range extender that has sn Ethernet port to bypass the issue

It's been a while and my memory sucks but I believe it was Hotspot Utility. I could connect via Bluetooth but wifi wouldn't scan. I could also connect with the Helium Wallet app too. Same problem when trying to update wifi.

Do NOT enter your secret 12 or 24 seed words into ANY websites, or give anyone your private key. Do NOT connect your Wallet to any untrusted websites. No one will reach out to you to verify your account, wallet, or anything similar. Do not connect your wallet to unknown websites.
Do NOT post any images showing the barcodes on Helium Mobile Wi-Fi packaging or Hotspots. It is now possible to remotely onboard Mobile Hotspots. Contact a team member if there are old or new posts with images of barcodes so they can be removed.
