How to get to UI ? (Volumio.local does not work)(Yes the Core of Problem is me being a hypernoob )

Have you set up the wifi settings of your home network via the touchscreen (you say that is working??). If the wifi settings haven’t been altered and you’re not using a wired connection, then the RPi should have started a hotspot at 192.168.211.1 (see link in my signature).

I onnected to my home network already. after 7" screen tells me he has got the internetz ( webradio sounds good ) i cant seem to get to the rp3 remotely by tablet ,which is connected to same network.

Plus new problem: Cant connect to home network anymore.
Shows hotspot enabled (phone finds it)
cant find hotspot with tablet.

So, try logging onto the hotspot with your phone. Start up the Volumio UI at 192.168.2.211. Set up the wifi as you like, save and reboot. Check the IP address of your RPi3 from your router, and , again using you phone, check that you can access the UI at the IP address rather than volumio.local. If this works ok, then try your tablet.
