We have followed the instructions in the Autonomy and Beyond section for remote development of the jetson with vs code. In VS Code when trying to connect to SSH host we get the prompt to choose linux, windows, or macOS (we chose linux according to the instructions). Next, it prompts us for the password and we enter it. After this we get an error that say failed to download VS Code Server (failed to fetch). We have tried a lot of troubleshooting but we can never get past this step.

My best guess right now is that your Jetson does not have internet access. You will need to bring it up on your wired/wireless network so that it can download the remote extensions and then you should be able to do remote dev from your desktop. Check out the section titled:
**Ensure the remote machine has internet access**

Details on connecting your Jetson to a wireless network (for internet connectivity) can be found here:

When we connect the Jetson to a wifi it stops broadcasting the drone’s wifi which is how we are connect to the drone via SSH.
