Hi, i added and worked perfectly when opening and starting the Addon by hand. But when i get off eth cable, and reboot raspbi, the access point doesnt open by itselve. I did mark to open when start. Sometimes when eth is plugged in, it does initate by itself.. any clue:

Let my config here:

"ssid": "HASSIO_WIFI", "wpa_passphrase": "xxxxxxxxx", "channel": "6", "address": "192.168.99.1", "netmask": "255.255.255.0", "broadcast": "192.168.99.255" "interface": "wlan0" " hide network " SSID: false "dhcp_server": true "dhcp_start": "192.168.99.10", "dhcp_end": "192.168.99.20", .....rest false

I have RPi 3 and I am providing internet connection to it using USB tethering from Android phone. Everything works well and this add-on provides AP for my ESPHOME devices. But when I reboot the RPi without USB tethering, this add-on does not start the AP. Same with LAN cable, for some reason this add-on requires either working USB tethering or working LAN connection in order to start the AP. Unfortunately I don't have any logs now, because I am not able to connect to HA as no connection options available.

I have exactly the same problem with a RasPi3. Unfortunately I have to install my home assistant without any box, and AP doesn't work without a connection. I need that to access locally to homeassistant with an iPhone or an iPad (or an other wifi android device). all my domestic devices are in zibee2MQTT. It's a hurry for me and I have to uninstall AP and try an other solution :-(
