          What model of pi do you have? On board wireless is only on the zeroW, 3 and 3B+. You signature says model B+, which would suggest a pi1 which doesn't have onboard wireless.

            The strange thing is I'm not entirely sure. There is 1 raspberry so I guess you're right.

                Yes, although I might just save money and use an ethernet cable. Sorry everyone! I got confused, you know, 3 B+, B+. Thanks for your help!

                  You can show your Pi's model and revision with this command:

                  cat /proc/device-tree/model
                  

                  (Just trying to fill the forum with useful information. 😌 )
