stuck trying to find hotspot on pi
I finally got the firmware flashed to an SD card. Had to keep using smaller and smaller cards until one would work. Inserted in pi and conncected to control board and powered up via USB. Ive tried my existing 4GB pi as well and the 2GB that shipped with the kit but neither created a hotspot that i could find. I have Spectrum as an ISP and getting into the router is done via there web app so I haven't found a way to directly access the router by entering the IP address so any router changes might be a problem with my current setup.
Solution
Got it!! I had a solid red LED on the Pi through the whole process so I thought power was good. Last ditch effort before bed I tried a different USB cable and it booted up and made a hotspot straight away. Never trust an indicator lamp. I work with power for a living and live by that motto but my brain never made the jump working with electronics. Thanks for the reponses.
