auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
auto wlan0

iface wlan0 inet dhcp

wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

We have a problem with that. If you want to use a USB wifi dongle in the RBPi3, we need wlan1 configured and working. It shouldn’t be a problem, but it seems it is.

I’ve added a header to “/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf” as it’s recommended.
Please, try this:

rm -f /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
/zynthian/zynthian-sys/scripts/update_zynthian_sys.sh

and reconfigure your Wifi network from the webconf tool.

Regards,

changed wlan0 to this and it works

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

thanks
