Device connection shows as successful in error #71

I had a device routinely trying and failing to authenticate to the network. I waited for the auth failure popup and copied the MAC address, then used the Add Device flow to add a new entry with the same MAC address and (it turned out) the wrong password.

On the QR code screen, the connection status immediately changed to "Success" even though there was no successful attempt. And when the device did attempt to connect a moment later, I got the PSK failure alert.

Was it actually successful in the end? Hostap has to trigger a succesful association event for that popup to appear

in this case the device had the wrong psk so no it didn’t successfully auth at this moment. Later I recreated it with the correct psk and had the same immediate success message, but the device really successfully authed maybe 30 seconds later.

Could be a UI state glitch in that case, can try to reproduce later.
