Thanks Andy,
I know that file:
[quote]
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
# auto enp1s0
iface enp1s0 inet dhcp
# Wildlife
# auto wlp2s0
iface wlp2s0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid *********
wpa-psk *************
# Wildlife Belkin
# iface wlp2s0 inet dhcp
# wpa-ssid ***************
# wpa-psk **************
[end quote]
Thanks for clearing that up for me Andy
Stay well,
Charlie
