Hi just switched on my ts 8 plus today and have no wifi. In wifi settings it shows wifi off, tried switching wifi on but will not switch over so not finding router. Tried factory reset. My phones are all getting wifi. For some reason when you hit on and it goes back to main screen it is still off. Has anyone any ideas
Thank you

It might be worth trying a reflash of the firmware. If you're sure you have the original T8-S Plus (not the T8-S Plus v2) https://droidboxforums.com/threads/firmware-links-for-t8-s-plus-v1-devices.10001/ has the link. If the first method doesn't work, try the second. There is also a wpa_supplicant file on older machines that could cause issues, https://droidbox.co.uk/blog/faq-2/imx6-wifi-wont-turn-on/ has some info. Can't recall if it exists on newer models, sorry.

Thank you. Not very tech minded but have read the link and seems easy enough although not got a scooby what a wpa file is but that shouldn’t matter by the look of it
