[SOLVED] Fresh install Pi-4 rev 1.5 not joining network

[hoverdonkey]

In light of the above, I just bit the bullet and did another full reset & reconfig of the router, just in case I had caused a conflict in setting up host names & manual IPs before.  Nope - still no Moode on my Pi 4     piCorePlayer still fine on it.

I also updated the Pi 4 eeprom firmware just in case there was a glitch there.  Nope.

Alas, I am at the end of this trail, unless somebody can sprinkle some crumbs and show me the way.
