new Orange pi PC Plus: wifi does not work

Just got my PC plus yesterday. I use Arambian_5.14_Orangepipcplus_Debian_jessie_3.4.112_desktop.raw
It sees the network but could not validate the authenticity. Once it failed, the network will not show on the subsequent attempt to connect.

The wpa-psk is correctly entered.

Any clue ?
Thanks.

Okay , I connect internet with ethernet and did update & upgrade.
I can now connect via wifi to the internet.

Hi,
Am having the same problem. Please convey what did you update, and how did it work.

One proven option is also to use latest desktop image since those problems are fixed.

I found the 5.25 version and burned a sd of it and can confirm it works.  Wifi fires right up. I input my password
and voila! wifi connectivity.  It also seems to be smoother than the other versions although I spent most of my time
fighting with the wifi

Having fun, Dave

Try some simple troubleshoots if your WiFi doesn't work:

      Check that the antennas are fixed well.
      Make sure that the wireless Camera is powered on.
      Ensure that the password is correct.
      Check the SSID in WiFi settings.
      Make sure there is no signal interference.
      Check that the camera has the correct IP address
      Update firmware.

Hope this will help you.
