You cannot use wifi as a client and host. Disable wifi, and then Set LMS up while connected to a hard line, turn on the nomysqueezebox option, to reduce the amount it tries to hit the internet. Install AP mode (Don't turn on wifi on the wifi page, just goto the APmode page and setup everything.) Reboot, and pull the network cable. The connect the the pCP AP. I have a pi3b+ with LMS and a Boss Dac on it playing....controlling it with iPeng connected to the pi's AP. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.
