I completely missed the message you posted to the list. The ONLY thing I did was to try the <span style="font-size:12.8px;">wifi-menu -o command after running the first time setup script. I found the command in the 'How To Notes' section. I noticed that the 'Wireless How To' covered only the BBB, but thought I'd give the command a try anyway. That's why I was pleasantly surprised when it seemed to work. The new node logged in to my wifi router via Wifi, I could ping Google from the node, and my new node was listed on Allstar. </span><div><span style="font-size:12.8px;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px;">I'm out of play time today, but I'll fire up the Pi3 Wifi using your notes tomorrow.

works on the RPi3 and with the current RPi2-3 1.02beta download on the
<a href="http://hamvoip.org" target="_blank">hamvoip.org</a> website. So far tests show that wireless on the Pi3 works
very well and has good range. The recommendation at this point is to get
an RPi3 if you want to use wireless or use the IOgear or equivalent
adapter as describe in the wireless howto on the Pi2 or BBB. The
wireless howto will be updated soon to include the RPi3. For now all the
instructions you need are below....<br><br>If you would like to try wireless on the RPi3 download this package to your RPi3<br><br>Web download -<br><br>

your wireless access point and give the passphrase. It will then give
you further instructions and ask you to disconnect the wired connection.
When the system is rebooted it will be using the wireless connection.<br><br>Note
that the wireless connection will be a new local IP address. You should
hear this in your radio if you had everything setup in the wired mode
previously. You could also get this IP address from your router or by
reading the CW from the LED on the board. <br><br>While port forwarding
is not necessary especially in mobile nodes if you don't have it enabled
you will only be able to connect outbound. To setup port forwarding
first make the assigned wireless IP address permanent in your router.
Every router does this differently but most all have the capability
based on the Pi boards MAC address to come up on the same IP every time
it is booted. Once you have that setup if you desire port forwarding you
can set that up pointing to the permanently assigned wireless IP
address.<br></div><div><br></div><div>There is a "wireless-control.sh" script to enable and disable the wifi interface as well as showing status.</div><div><br>Example screen for selecting wireless access point -<br><br></div></div><span dir="ltr"></span><span></span><div><blockquote style="border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div><div dir="ltr"><span></span><div><div><div><div><div><blockquote style="border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div dir="ltr"><br><div><img alt="Inline image 1" height="298" width="425"><br></div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div><br><br><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><a href="http://www.crompton.com/hamradio" target="_blank">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</a></font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr>Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 14:50:53 -0500<br>To: <a href="mailto:arm-allstar@hamvoip.org" target="_blank">arm-allstar@hamvoip.org</a><br>Subject: Re: [arm-allstar] RPi2-3 V1.02beta - Initial Setup - CRDA Error<br>From: <a href="mailto:arm-allstar@hamvoip.org" target="_blank">arm-allstar@hamvoip.org</a><br>CC: <a href="mailto:wb5nfc@gmail.com" target="_blank">wb5nfc@gmail.com</a><br><br><div dir="ltr">Perhaps I spoke too soon.
