Enable Wifi on OpenPlotter OS on Pi3 - BMMRO - 2017-07-16

I am currently setting up OpenCPN on a rapberry Pi 3 with OpenPlotter OS. Ideally i want to be able to connect the Pi to the WiFi network, but the option is not there on OpenPlotter. It shows WiFi management not available. Is there anyway to enable this through a command terminal? Thankyou!!

Sounds like the wifi access point is enabled, if you disable that and click on the networks icon top right of the screen you should see available networks.
