Moode 9 wifi - bug report - jlynton - 05-23-2024
I have been using moode 8 in wifi only for a long time with no problems, but have just tried to configure moode 9 for wifi only connection (following the instructions in setup.txt). It appears that Moode 9 will not recognise an SSID that contains more than one word. If I press scan the resulting list just shows the first word of the SSID, I can enter my two word SSID manually, but either way (choosing the 'first word' option from the drop down, or entering the correct SSID manually), when I have typed the password and selected the country then pressed save, the system will not shut down. If I then cut the power, then try to start it again it just says 'system busy'.

Either post or PM me the SSID and I'll try to repro your issue.

PM sent, many thanks.

I tried the SSID you sent and there were no issues in the Network Config screen and the NM connection file was created correctly.
Check for the NetworkManager connection file.
Code:
sudo cat "/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/YOUR_SSID.nmconnection"RE: Moode 9 wifi - bug report - jlynton - 05-24-2024
I have had a look, /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ is empty.

Very odd. Maybe someone else can repro so we can have something to debug.
Any 2-words-with-a-space SSID can be used for testing for example "Surveillance Van".

I am able to repro "SCAN only displaying the first word in a " 2-words-with-a-space" SSID. This looks like a parsing issue. I'll add to the TODO list.

You beat me to it again.
but I had gone a step further this morning.
1. Temporarily configured my Pi400 (full-on RaspiOS) as a hot spot with the imaginative SSID "Hot Spot".
2. Scanned for SSIDs with a moOde 9..0.0 player, which returned only the first word "Hot".
3. Set the correct WiFi SSID and pw manually in the player, saved, and rebooted.
4. Using AngryIP on the Pi400, I don't see the moOde player in the subnet address space managed by the hotspot. OTOH I can associate with the hotspot using my Linux laptop and it does show up in the subnet.
5. Running a WiFi analyzer I see that the moOde player has reverted to its own HotSpot mode.
ETA - Never mind. I checked the 'Hot Spot.nmconnection' file and realized I mistyped the password. Once that was corrected, moOde 9.0.0 had no trouble associating to an access point with SSID 'Hot Spot'.

I have since tried setting up a single-word SSID on my router (moo), and tried to connect with a new install of moode9. Same thing happened, clicked save, and was left with nothing in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/. Tried to reboot, abut it wouldn't shut down, cut the power and booted again, but could not enter any of the configuration options (system etc.).

Sorry to have to ask, but did you set a username and password in the "OS Customisations" section of Raspberry Pi Imager *before* flashing the moOde image to a memory card? Some of the symptoms you report, such as "could not enter...", are suggestive of this step having been missed.
Configuring with single-word SSIDs in my moOde players has been a rock solid process for every release in recent memory.
