hi Jens Erik Jensen, We want things to work as well as you do. The idea of this beta release was to find issues that we didn't foresee. pCP4.0.0 has lots of changes, much more than usual, and there is only so much we can test in our environments. I will put my money on #4. An exclamation point

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

Just a few things noticed in change from 3.5.0 to 4.0.0: - newconfig.cfg does not seem to be required. I used it when installing a fresh image of pCP 4.0.0 but after the install it had retained the name of newconfig.cfg and the settings had not been used - after an insitu upgrade 3.5.0 to 4.0.0
