      I logged on to my wifi by using the "Import WiFi credentials" options. It logged on fine and I transferred a few ROMs using WinSCP.

      I restarted the device and on my second go, I tried to log on to the wifi using the "Import WiFi credentials" option again. It begins to connect but now it eventually fails and returns "Unable to connect to Network".

      I was thinking the device was being blocked by my WiFi router somehow and I've tried other networks. I've also restarted the router I initially used. It still fails to connect.

      Any ideas? Thank you so much for any help and advice!

        Restart the router and try again.

        My English isn't at a good level.

          @windg Sorry I should have specified above that restarting the router was my first course of action :-) Did not resolve the issue.

            Have you tried using a wpa_supplicant.conf file? In retropie docs, see “Connecting to WiFi Without a Keyboard”. Works great on my Gpi. You shld probably remove your existing WiFi config before trying it.
