All my Pi's except for one are all using just WiFi.
I'm not sure if I'd call this progress but I've gotten somewhere, it seems that without an ethernet cable plugged in it gets stuck in AP mode.
1. I reset the network settings.
2. With ethernet plugged in, setup my wifi network again.
3. Same behavior as before, with ethernet unplugged no wifi connection.
4. However, it switches into AP mode when the ethernet is unplugged.
This suggests to me that your moOde player is unable to locate and/or associate with your LAN's WiFi Access Point using the information you supplied so it reverts to stand-alone AP mode.
Quote:5. Connect to Moode AP network via IP 172.24.1.1
6. Setup wifi network to connect to again.
7. Same issue, without ethernet plugged in, it switched over to AP mode.
8. As soon as I plug in the ethernet, everything goes back to normal functionality in eth0 or wifi.
I see in several posts this assertion that both eth0 and wlan0 interfaces are connected yet the only hard data posted so far contradicts it. In post #130 we find
Code:

...Note the line "eth0 address not assigned"
I'm curious. What is the command-line output from either "ifconfig" or "ip address"?

PS - ifconfig is an obsolete command which hasn't been dropped yet from many Linux distros. I suspect that's because there's a lot of scripts out there with ifconfig embedded in them. Besides, it's hard to teach us old dogs new tricks.
