Hi thornton, It look like you are doing the right thing. http://picoreplayer.sourceforge.net/how_to_setup_wifi_on_pcp_without_ethernet.shtml When you first power up it will go through a couple of reboots. I wonder if you let it complete its final boot? This will take more than a minute or 2. The next thing is, are the SSID and password correct? Do they contain special characters? Also, don't use a hidden SSID. You might need to connect a monitor (and keyboard) to see what is happening. By default, your should see a player called "piCorePlayer" appear in LMS. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107223 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
