I’m having trouble connecting my computer to my organelle’s Access Point. I purchased the official wifi dongle and it works great - has no issues connecting to the internet. I started the AP in settings and was able to find it in my wifi options on my computer. But, when I type in the password it does not give the me the option to join. Anybody able to help?

The default password is _coolmusic_  
Is that what you entered? (only see five • in that screenshot)

I had tried changing the password in the wifi.txt file but I changed it back to coolmusic and it worked. Thank you!

The password in the wifi.txt file is for connecting to existing networks. The AP password is set internally. To change the AP password: [Change password and or network name of Organelle](https://forum.critterandguitari.com/t/change-password-and-or-network-name-of-organelle/3281/2)
