Hi Mr. Floppy,
I think there might be something wrong with you SSID or wireless
password. Do you have a hidden SSID?
Assume wifi setup is very simple if:
- SD card is not corrupt.
- USB wifi adaptor is supported by Raspberry Pi.
- SSID is correct and valid.
- Password is correct and valid.
- SSID is not hidden.
regards
Greg
