Wireless connection - jsp - 15-Jun-2020
I want to try Snakeoil OS with my Raspberry Pi 3B+ via the wireless connection. Unfortunately, as far as I know wifi is not supported out of the box. Is there any version allowing that feature?

Just follow the Raspberry Pi docs on how to setup a Wifi connection, and it will be good to go.
Bear in mind though audio quality is going to suffer, but if you're only after something quick and easy, it'll work just fine.

Unfortunately I did not succeed. Can you please consider providing snakeoil os iso with preconfigured wifi? Thanks.

So there is no way of using WiFi on a pc?
I just moved and there is no way of getting an ethernet cable to my listening room

You could use a wi-fi range extender like TP-Link RE220 that allows you to connect via ethernet cable.
The RE220 connects to your WiFi and your PC connects to the RE220 via an ethernet cable
