I've found the solution!! The issue was the fact that my AP was not broadcasting the SSID. I know this isn't foolproof security but it keeps me under the radar of the script-kiddies. Pi-star had no issues with my long password or the special characters in the password. I wonder if this is a problem...

I have just loaded V4 RC2 on my hotspot (Zumspot GPIO on a RPi 0). I cannot get it to connect to my WiFi AP but have no problems connecting to the Hotspot on my Android phone. I have no problems connecting to the same AP using Pi-Star v3. The only unusual thing about the AP is the WiFi password. The...

Thank you Dennis, that was the solution. For anyone elso experiencing the problem here are the steps to fix it: 1 - Make the SD card writeable with the rpi-rw command 2 - Edit the /etc/default/keyboard with the sudo vi /etc/default/keyboard command 3 - change XKBLAYOUT="gb" to XKBLAYOUT=&q...

That told how to do it in the KDE control panel but Pi-Star has removed the graphical environment so unfortunately that is not applicable
