If the link-local address (zynthian.local) is not found, make sure that the link-local feature is enabled in your system. Sometimes it's disabled and link-local names are not recognized (windows). If you can't manage to get link-local names to work, you can use the Zynthian's IP address.  The zynthian's IP address can be found int the UI's "Admin->Network Info" menu, and it's also printed on the zynthian's error screen. See: [[Finding your IP address]]

== Wifi Hotspot ==
 +
 +
You can connect to your Zynthian using the built-in Wifi Hotspot mode. This is less convenient than using Ethernet or an existing Wifi network, and is mostly useful to configure connections to other wifi networks.
 +
 +
# Open the Admin screen on your Zynthian.
 +
# Select the "Wifi Hotspot" option.
 +
#* This will take up to thirty seconds to complete.
 +
# Connect to the "zynthian" network with another device.
 +
# In the Admin screen on your Zynthian, select "Network Info".
 +
# Connect to the displayed IP address with the browser on your other device.
 +
 +
Note that the wifi network created in hotspot mode allows anyone to connect. If using the wifi hotspot in a public place, ensure you've changed your Zynthian password.

Currently ''ZynAddSubFX'', ''Aeolus'', ''Pianoteq'' and ''Pure Data'' have support for displaying remotely their native GUIs, that is launched automatically when layer is created. Other GUI software can be launched, like ''qjackctl'' or a virtual MIDI keyboard for testing.
