Yes I agree, it was bothering me, I recreated each scenario checked usr/local/etc/pcp/wpa_supplicant.conf for each case and found they all differed, only the last one actually worked... ssid=...CrayNet... ssid=CrayNet #enc_ssid="...CrayNet..." ssid="...CrayNet..." #enc_ssid="CrayNet" ssid="CrayNet" So something somewhere is encoding or interpreting " as ... and I just had this nagging feeling that I'd seen something like this before - text editors putting unwanted/wrong characters or controls in edited files. I went back to old time basics and I fired up my Windows desktop, Used Etcher to create a new pCP image Notepad++ to edit wpa_supplicant.conf on the Boot partition... I left the line # Maintained by user in the file unmodified. i changed ... country=GB, ssid="CrayNet" psk="mypskpassword" saved the file, ejected the disk, poked it into the Rpi and powered up, a minute or so later I was connected to the Web UI of pCP... Perfect and simple - just as it should be So my issue was something in my process and tools on my Mac - probably TextEdit. Grrrrr... hours chasing a non-problem, my apologies guys, I should have gone down this route and checked this first thing this morning. I hope I haven't wasted too much of your time, Paul- & Greg appreciate the help and knowledge you passed on, I'm new to pCP and have learnt quite a bit in the last 24 hours! Obviously this leaves Christophe back where he was, when I started this I though I might have the same problem as him and therefore could help, but that looks unlikely now - sorry.
