Used the WiFi script via UI. Selected a WiFI SSID, then entered password. WiFi did not come up.
After looking at /media/fat/linux/wpa_supplicant.conf I noticed that the password I entered (for ex. CHEESE123) was stored lower case (cheese123). Believe this caused the wifi problem.
Fixed by manually editing WiFi password in /media/fat/linux/wpa_supplicant.conf to make it uppercase.
WiFi script doesn't handle uppercase password

Re: WiFi script doesn't handle uppercase password
I just setup my MiSTer barcade using the wifi script not too long ago and didn't have any issues. My home wifi has multiple upper and lowercase letters. How did you confirm you typed it as uppercase?

Re: WiFi script doesn't handle uppercase password
Thanks, I didn't confirm but do remember typing SHIFT before each key .
This was using this type of keyboard, https://www.tindie.com/products/robotar ... -keyboard/, the only one I have with me while traveling ATM.
I'll pay more attention to see what's going on next time I run into this.

Interesting keyboard.
I'm not sure what went wrong, but if you can test the same thing with a regular usb keyboard when you get back from traveling, that can whittle down the issue. Safe travels!
