The problem is solved (worked around...) The quoted wlan0 config was in the /etc/network/interfaces.d/wlan0 file, and /etc/network/interfaces contained only one line: source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d It looks like this source-directory directive doesn't work on the Pi Zero W, but works on ...

Re: Pi Zero W doesn't appear on wifi after install

whats a periferia?

Can you try it out without the fixed IP in the meantime?

Re: Pi Zero W doesn't appear on wifi after install

The question will prob end up being - how come its working on your Pi3? :) 1. Can you post your wpa_supplicant.conf as requirements have changed between Jessie and Stretch 2. Can you try it without the fixed IP in your Pi3 - then move it to your PiZeroW and see what happens (I'm assuming the PiZero...
