Problem with Wifi Solved eero mesh network

brentadler

I am a noobie. I would like to post a pair of tips that confounded me for a few hours in an otherwise simple set up.
1st. I am running a basic Rpi 3, my network is a eero, my audio system is vintage 1990 audiophile (when I was a single man with too much income).

It took me two hours to figure out the Rpi could see networks with SSID names that were incompatible. I needed to remove an apostrophe from the name. Yes ALL non-letter or number characters are a problem.

Next you will need to be on the exact network as your Runeaudio. So you can't control the rune from the guest network.

OK that is all have got. But I thought I would post it to help the next noobie.

Hi brentadler,

welcome to RuneAudio.

It took me two hours to figure out the Rpi could see networks with SSID names that were incompatible. I needed to remove an apostrophe from the name. Yes ALL non-letter or number characters are a problem.

With my latest image for RP2/3 this shouldn't be a problem.
