I just picked up a RPi 3 and loaded Volumio onto an SD to use with my work setup. The installation worked fine, and I can access Volumio via Hotspot. I tested my DAC and it works great. However, my work uses WPA Enterprise (AES encryption) and PEAP authentication. Basically, a locked network that requires specific username and password. It isn’t possible to add this information when in the Hotspot.
What should I do? I’m not great at the coding/more advanced stuff, but willing to explore if there is a more complicated solution. Or is there a possibility that Enterprise support might be added?
So I managed to get in via SSH and edit the wpa_supplicant.conf
Still no luck. I actually think it’s entirely on the complexity of the network. I downloaded the certificate that I needed, and added it to the wpa_supplicant. But I guess I don’t really have any way of knowing this works other than trying to connect via the Web UI, which I’m so far unsuccessful with.
Any other ideas as to how to check whether wifi is working? Obviously when I have the ethernet cable in I can get internet, but there’s no drop near my desk, so keeping it plugged into ethernet is not going to work for me.
When you’re logged in by ssh you can use the commands ‘ifconfig’ and ‘iwconfig’ (they might need prefixing with ‘sudo’) to find out assigned IP address and wifi network information.
Can you also post your wpa_supplicant.conf file (obviously without sensitive details).?
Okay, so now I seem to be successful in getting onto Wifi, and can open up the Volumio UI in my browser. Now I have a new issue. I have connected Spotify, and even though I hit the play button, it just doesn’t play. I have no idea if this is again a local issue due to the wifi (I can usually play Spotify on the wifi on my computer or phone). Haven’t attached any music via USB to see if it might be another issue, but will do so later today.
