Connected to a local device, but local API not yet ready. Please wait

Troubleshooting
#1

Subject of the issue

I have the DIY dongle connected to a RPI3. Have received email confirmation that my unit_id has been activated.
I have setup wifi through wpa_supplicant.conf so that RPI3 connects to internet.
When I open web-browser to RPI3’s web address, I get the AutoPi page, but it says " Connected to a local device, but local API not yet ready. Please wait …".

I can’t do anything else.

Your environment

Latest Chrome

Steps to reproduce

Connect to RPI3 using local address (http://192.168.4.1)

Expected behaviour

Not sure. I have never used Autopi before, but I would assume it would ‘work’?

Actual behaviour

See above

#2

If I go on local.autopi.io, I get the following message:

Please ensure connection too local hotspot.
No connection found. Retrying…

It worked eventually after rebooting a few times.
