Hi rmac321, Thanks! It should be noted that the [ Wifi Settings ] page generates an encrypted passphrase type wpa_supplicant.conf. This is the new "normal". So if you created your wifi settings via wpa_supplicant.conf on boot partition or insitu upgrade methods (using a password), when you go into [ Wifi Settings ] you need to re-enter password and the country code and press [Save]. This is the quickest way to do from the old to the new. So for using passphrases you don't need to use "#Maintained by user" method. ATM we don't convert wifi passwords to wifi passphrases during a wpa_supplicant.conf on boot partition or insitu upgrade. Yeah, I only noticed an old wifi.db a couple of days ago, have to get rid of that! We don't use or load that file anymore but there may be a copy in your mydata backup. It is save to delete, but you need to a [Backup] to overwrite you old backup file. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109286 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
