Device not reconnecting to created nmconnection after reboot #381

Open acostach opened 3 years ago

acostach commented 3 years ago

After successfully connecting to the AP specified in the captive portal, if the device is rebooted it doesn't reconnect to the router, instead the wifi-connect connection gets re-activated:

Feb 18 13:31:37 3552abc NetworkManager[1469]: [1613655097.6011] device (wlan0): disconnecting for new activation request.

Could this be a timing issue, scan results not ready / saved connection not fully activated when the wifi-connect container starts? If I move the device to another Application, it reconnects fine. Or is this the intended behavior?

Tested on Pi4 v2.68.1 (ESR)

Indeed, on a board that loads containers slower, like the Raspberrypi 1 model B v1.2 this issue is not reproducible.

I'm having the same problem with wifi not reconnecting to the inputed network. Did you figure out how to add a delay?

acostach commented 3 years ago

@romarcin I think you can try add a delay in the start script, where the wifi-connect app gets started.
