I’ve loaded the latest software for Pi 5 onto 128 Gig micro sd card. The Pi boots to a log in screen every time, expecting a login name and password. I can’t reach umbrel.local.
Please advise.
Thank you.

With some browsers you have to enter: http://umbrel.local as it tries to assume everything is in https
start with this if you are new:
but to find your ip address:
hostname -I
should give you the ip address, ad well as the two internal ones in the system.
then you use the ip address instead of umbrel.local
Sometimes that happens. As the other comment suggests, you should try typing it out manually as http://umbrel.local and see if that works. If not then you can find the IP address from either entering in the command the other commenter put (after logging into the terminal using umbrel as the default password), or you can log into your router and try to determine the IP assigned to your Umbrel and use that to connect.
Also just want to confirm you do have an Ethernet cabel plugged into your Umbrel as that is needed at least until you setup the wifi connection from the gui.
Lastly, do be cautious with any setup that requires accessing the terminal and running commands in it. If they are setup related they will break on OS updates, and if they are app related will break on app updates. So any commands you use to setup your device how you like, I highly recommend creating a script so that on updates you can just run a script instead of figuring out everything you did.
