Connect runs as a user-level service, not as root. As a result, Connect only works when your user account is currently logged in on your Raspberry Pi. This can make your Raspberry Pi unreachable if you reboot with automatic login disabled. To continue running Connect even when you aren't logged into your device, enable **user-lingering**. Run the following command from your user account to enable user-lingering:

$ loginctl enable-linger
