In order to login and pass traffic to the APRS-IS servers you need 2 lines in your direwolf.conf file:
???? IGSERVER {APRS-IS server}?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? noam.aprs2.net

It is recommended that the ssid be different from the one used by direwolf for any "channel"
If those lines are uncommented in your conf file, and it still does not work, then maybe you don't have an internet connection.

I'd suggest a PBEACON as a check to see if you have a connection
? PBEACON sendto=IG every=10:00 symbol="IGATE" lat=33^28.54N long=111^35.79W new DJ-190 IGATE
?
Try to ping the server from the Pi:
?? ping -c5 noam.aprs2.net
If you get a ping response, but are not seeing your PBEACON, then post the conf file.
