Formatted everything re-flashed everything and would'nt you know it, im back in the astroberry.
now to solve how to connect the actual internet from inside the astroberry, i did use the make new wifi connection , but nope that doesn't work.
and there is only the Celestron GPS driver for my AVX, not sure that will work.

I experienced this as well, but my limited knowledge of Linux made it a bit tougher to deal with. Right-Clicking on the Network WiFi icon on the top right and selecting Edit Connection should show the Hotspot.

I now have three connections that tests all three and connect to the most appropriate This is don't by setting the Priority in the General Tab so now if I am home it connects to my Gateway as a first priority as it is the most common then it will try to connect to my Mobile phone if I have the rig in a dark sky location if either fails then goes to Hotspot for offline usage if I am in a mobile dead zone.

If you have not deleted the Hotspot, it should still be there.

thanks Malcom, where can i attach pics to show hat i see, this way it makes it easy for others to help?
ok i found it. i did not delete the hotspot but made a new connection, but once i log out , i cant get back in , and now i know why. BUT, on my PC its not in the list anymore ( new astrroberry wifi con) so how do i access it now?
do i need to use my browser and use the routers new Linux IP address, cause it is on the router list, other wise i am lost also at that point i can no longer back to astroberry Hotspot, so had to reinstall it al.
just need a little know howto nudge.

will post screen shots when asked.

When you configured it to connect to an existing access point, did it show connected?
If so, then you will need to look in that access points connected device list to find the IP address assigned.

Than you for the quick responce...what is the access point? my Limksys router?

here is what i see..here is what i see..

this is my router wifi list. 
 

the minute i hit Save, im never getting back in , because i no longer see it in my pc list of wifi connection. unless im missing something here.
 

And if you try and connect to the IP address shown in your router list?
192.168.1.151 ?

Gene

i did not hit save yet, when you say connect , you mean via chrome?

well that failed ... error connecting to the server/ network.
