Volumio doesn't see my Wifi

Well, hello there!

I tried to connect my new Volumio to my AVM Fritzbox 7430, but it doesn’t find it. The router stands right next to the Raspi3B+, therefore no bad signal possible. Other Wifis around the house are visible, also other Fritzboxes (I’ve read about issues between Volumio and Fritzboxes)

Things I’ve checked/tried:

  • The Wifi is visible
  • new devices are allowed to connect
  • I’ve tried manual configuration by adding WiFi name and password
  • it’s 2.4GHz WiFi (read about issues with 5GHz)
  • it’s on WiFi channel 13, which is ideal cause there’s no other traffic on it
  • other devices can see and connect to the WiFi, so in general, it’s working.

Any suggestions?

Greetings, Flo

It seems to be an issue with the WiFi Channel. Switched to channel 11 and it was visible for Volumio.
