In reply to myself to give you an idea of how I am approaching this here is what I have done as best I can with the setup guide.
I have Raspberry Pi 3+ with a HiFiBerry DAC+ board attached and the wall wart power supply. Music in on a attached by USB 250GB HDD.
I have downloaded the MoodeAudio ISO image file and have written it to a 16GB MicroSD card. I have put the SD card in the slot in the Pi and plugged in the power supply. The red led on the Pi lights and the HDD light blinks as if it is being accessed.
At this point I am lost and do not know how to connect to the hardware by wifi, ethernet, with a phone or from my PC???!!!!???
I have guessed by looking at the setup that this has something to do with connecting but I do not know what Access Point mode is nor what "WiFi adapter" I should be using? I am assuming the WiFi adapter is on the Raspberry Pi board?
- Access Point (AP) mode
a) Insert WiFi adapter that supports AP mode
b) Power on
c) Join network SSID=Moode, pwd=moodeaudio
d) http://moode.local or http://172.24.1.1
How do I "Join network", what network?
I tried typing in both http://moode.local or http://172.24.1.1 in my browser (Opera) on PC and in my Android phone browser (Dolphin) but I get a "This site can’t be reached" message.
