While connected to a PC without drivers (such as GNU/Linux) over USB, the GoPro sets itself up as a USB Ethernet card and runs a DHCP server to assign your PC an address. Doesn't mess with my default route, so regular path to the internet still works. In my case the GoPro assigned me 172.23.177.54 and nmap helped me discover the GoPro was on 172.23.177.51.
I had to ask the GoPro to start streaming by visiting http://172.23.177.51/gp/gpWebcam/START?res=1080p
the result returned JSON with
{
"status": 2,
"error": 0
}
