I use it extensively here and have not had any problems. <br><br>First I am pretty sure you are using the latest wifi version since in has been out there several weeks. The latest package is:<br><br>https://hamvoip.org/downloads/hamvoip-wireless-config-0.1-7.pkg.tar.xz<br id="FontBreak"></font><br><font style="" face="Tahoma,sans-serif">The prior version 1-6 had some problems with spaces in SSID's and no passphrase SSID's<br><br>The very best way to work on wireless is to use an HDMI monitor and keyboard attached to the Pi. That way you will always have access, be able to send commands, and be able to see what is going on.<br><br>Connect wired and you should see something like this of course with your IP address range. The command is 'ifconfig' In this case I only have wired connected and it shows an IP address for eth0 and not wlan0.<br><br>[root@Pi3-1 ~]# ifconfig<br>eth0:

If you are not seeing an IP address in either case then you obviously have a problem. I have seen older routers that for some reason did not issue IP addresses properly.

Make sure you have everything defined properly. You need to check (spacebar) the SSID you want then enter passphrase on the next screen.
