Straight up didn't install over WiFi. Used a lan cable. It worked, but! I couldn't get it to receive wifi.

Gotcha. I like to keep my node plugged in so I didn’t mind that I couldn’t get the wifi working either. πŸ˜…

No problem. I'd rather a wired set up. But my internet service provider didn't account that I would need one for a node.

You could get a small network switch. Comes in handy for those extra devices πŸ˜‰

First I hear of a network switch?

How and where does it fit in my current cable salad?

ISP internet -> ISP provided router/wifi -> switch -> devices

If youre paying to rent some device (router/modem) from the provider, it's generally worth buying one as they pay for themselves quick

Awesome. Will look into a better router.

fwiw this is because your hardware probably needed a proprietary WiFi driver that was not included in the StartOS binary. With 0343 (later this week), we are including a bunch more non-free WiFi drivers into the non-free ISO, so it will probably work just fine
