FYI, yesterday evening I updated two hotspots with which I had been having trouble connecting to WiFi on startup, one 3A+ and one 4B. Both have been starting up and connecting to WiFi flawlessly since the update to 4.1.0-RC7. Thank you! (Actually, I updated the 4B from RC6 to RC7, and I flashed a ne...

The Raspberry Pi uses Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize its clock to UTC. In some cases, the time may get out of sync. In that case, you can simply restart the RPi and the NTP daemon should re-synchronize to UTC. If necessary, you can force a manual re-synchronization via Pi-Star by logging...

Yes, that's because BrandMeister is doing this; the Pi-Star dashboard is simply reporting what BrandMeister is doing.

If it's based on a newer Raspberry Pi (Zero W, 3B, or newer), you can just turn it on, let it sit for at least three minutes, and then it will become an access ...

I sure appreciate all the work/research you're doing on this issue!

Nice article.

Question: why did you cross out the firewall ports section?

The 3B+ and 3A+ also can use 4.0.x, but that beta codeline has been deprecated and isn't available for download anymore, so practically speaking, a new install for the 3B+ or 3A+ requires 4.1.x.
