Hi, trying to setup my Pi via SSH but it doesn't recognize the password I setup when installing the OS. I logged into my router to get the IP address for the Pi so I assume that's correct. Trying to login to port 22.
Tried "pi" and "Pi" as the login.
I tried the default password.
Tried running Putty as an administrator.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. My password was generated by Last pass and has characters, numbers, etc. Maybe that's the problem?
Any help is appreciated.

Just got it. The raspbian installer auto filled the username so it wasn't pi anymore it was ewanc. It autodetected my network SSID as well. Maybe a new feature?
anyways I think reef pi is installed now. Just going to restart and login

Right on. The SSID auto detection sounds handy, I've never experienced that, probably a new feature. I'm using Pi Imager 1.7.3 but when I open it tells me there's an update.

I can access reef pi now. Thanks Rob.
Is there a certain order of progression to follow now? I'm guessing I install the Robo tank app and start setting equipment up.
I'd like to setup remote access so I can view parameters while on vacation. Would that be done after the robo tank app is installed or does it really matter?

Thanks Rob, as I was installing the Robo tank app it clicked in my mind that it probably can't be loaded with Reef Pi already on the card. I just started over and will start with Reef Pi for now. I managed to setup email alerts so I'm pretty happy with myself. I'll try the Team viewer. That sounds right up my alley.
Thanks again!!

No problem and sounds like a good plan. Once you get familiarized you can explore more.
