I have a setup with LMS running on a RPi 3, and several pCP players
installed on RPi 1 and 2 models. It works very well and has for years
now.
However, after upgrading my players to pCP 4.0.0, my systems stopped
autostarting my favourite radio stations on reboot. For stability, I
have set my

get it working on my system!

Forgive me for asking a question that may have already been answered in
this rather long thread, I have searched for the solution without
success.
I am using Ubuntu LTS versions (14.04, 16.04 and 18.04) on various
computers and I have good experiences using squeezelite for playing
music locally

Hi Paul and Greg,
Thank you for being so helpful and not giving up on this issue.
As for Greg's troubleshooting link and the most frequent reasons for
wifi not working:
1.Wrong password.
2.Wrong SSID.
3.piCorePlayer does not support hidden SSID.
4.piCorePlayer does not support special
I already tested the 3.5.0 image for the last few months, and it worked
perfectly. It was only after trying to upgrade to 4.0.0 that my wifi
connection failed. It has also worked for all the previous versions for
a few years now. I bought the RPi in December 2014, and I think the 1.18

I have actually tried that a few times now,
I updated my Raspberry Pi 1B+ from 3.5.0 to 4.0.0.b5 using the WiFi
connection, and everything during upgrade seemed to work well. However
after reboot, it could not connect to WiFi. I have now taken it down and
connected to wired ethernet, and everything works, so the upgrade has

receive any software with it, nor can I download anything from their

or buy one that can
I have finally taken the full step and moved all my music (approx. 3

insecure NAS server) to a separately powered 2Tb USB HDD which is now

Thanks to the team for excellent and interesting developments over the
past weeks. I was perhaps a bit too eager to upgrade, because insitu

Don't know if there were problems
Dear Man in a van / Ronnie and AngloCuencano,
Thank you very much for your suggestions. Actually, I already had tried
reformatting and re-imaging the MicroSD card several times and with
several versions, all giving the same result, but thank you anyway.
