Hi, I have a new wifi router at home and cannot connect to pi-star dashboard. When I have my raspberry pi connected to my laptop, the screen on the pi shows "start up" and thats it .....no connection.
Not being very good with any of this, I am at a loss as to what to do next.
Any help anyone can give would be grately appreciated.
Cheers, Pete.

The description is not totally clear...

"...connected to my laptop"? How is this connection being made? R-Pi as WiFi ACCESS POINT (not client); CAT-5 networking cable?

If you have a new router, it likely has different SSID and WAP password -- how did you update the R-Pi for the new router node?

Last case -- if "start-up" is referring to the default OS background when booting, you may have corrupted the boot partition -- and will need to configure a fresh Pi-Star install (probably onto a new SD card in case the old one has significant failure points).
