At the moment, Safari on an iPad.

Brave on PC, or Brave on Mobile

sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf  

When you give command above, what you see?
I see as shown in screenshot below.

I will try that when I get a chance.

That fixed it. It is now working great. Thank yall!

What did you see when you opened that file? Was it blank?

For an odd reason is was not accounting for the space in my wifi name…

Basically I just changed it there, rebooted and it worked fine.

Now if anyone has any suggestions on how to monitor heat and CPU load my Pi that would be great! I am looking as well!

Install graphs1090 :wink:

Is it possible that you have a bad ADS-B receiver?

But you might also check the power into the Raspi?
There have been numerous stories of the Raspi not getting enough power from the wall wart, resulting in an underpowered receiver.
Depending on which Raspi you have, it’s been suggested that one have at least 5v @ 4.0A as a minimum (I think Raspi supplies 3A in their kits that include PS)

I’m sorry I can’t be of more help.
I have only recently come along the same route as you in getting things up and running, self-teaching as I go.
Since I’ve never had an issue like yours, I just don’t have the answers.

I wish you luck.
I know it’s frustrating getting going.
But this is a great thing to be a part of.

D.

It’s all working fine now, thank you!
