        @greenwaydev Here is a great tutorial that can help you learn your way around MM.
        https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial/6

        I would recommend, once you get your MM configured the way you like to make a back up of it using win32 disk imager (make sure .img is on the end of the file or it won’t save as a disc image). That way if you mess up your SD card somehow you have a back up to use.

          I used the image that was posted a few comments back. I can NOT for the life of me get the wireless to connect. I have followed every guide I can find and it will not connect. I have tried DHCP and static. I’m out of ideas.

              @justindp2006 so you followed the guide and entered you ssid and password?
              You could try the terminal command

              sudo raspi-config
              

              And set up wifi via the on screen menu.

              Failing that u could set up a wpa supplicant file and insert it in your sd card

                      Tried. Think it’s time to toss in the towel. Hours lost to this project. It would be one thing if I was new to all of this or ignorant to programming or pis in general. I just don’t understand and there are no clues. Thanks for the replies.

                        OK, so I haven’t confirmed it on this package but was having the SAME EXACT issue with an octoprint setup for my printer. Anyhow I ran sudo iwlist wlan0 scan and it sees my network. Here is the kicker though. My network shows up like "MyNetworkHere ". There is a space between MyNetworkHere and the ". I added the space, saved and rebooted and it immediately connected. Hope this helps someone.
