No WiFi available after finishing hotspot mode #109

Open bastos77 opened 7 years ago

bastos77 commented 7 years ago

FP2 after OTA-1 r1 update coming from legacy r41 (Version 41) this morning. I have WiFi available before activating hotspot. But after finishing hotspot mode, there is no WiFi or SSID available anymore. After restart WiFi connection works again normally. I have repeated this bug and it is the same. Yesterday in legacy r41 this bug was not there. I have been able to switch between WiFi and hotspot bach to WiFi without problems.

I'm seeing also this in the Nexus 5. This is what I'm running: channel: ubports-touch/15.04/rc last update: 1970-01-03 18:02:07 version version: 3

bastos77 commented 7 years ago

Today I worked with hotspot and everything went right I am again on OTA-1 (15.04 (r1)) So bug is away for the time being :)

wagafo commented 7 years ago

I'm still seeing this issue in the 15.04/devel channel, revision 40.

zubozrout commented 6 years ago

I can confirm on MX4 as well (I am on devel). Going to airplane mode and back won't help either but reboot fortunately does.

stekalb commented 6 years ago

also on opo channel: 15.04/stable and channel: 15.04/devel (r281)

wagafo commented 6 years ago

I confirm on OPO, 15.04, stable and development

cibersheep commented 6 years ago

Same behaviour on Hammerhead Xenial 2018-W31

cyberpunkedu commented 5 years ago

Still in hammerhead 16.04/devel

myii commented 5 years ago

Persists in hammerhead 16.04/devel, version 796 (2019-01-15).

Cannot reproduce this on turbo@ota7

kugiigi commented 5 years ago

So far I can't reproduce this on my bq E5 (OTA-7). Hotspot seems to work a lot better on it than on my Nexus 5.

myii commented 5 years ago

In a conversation with @kugiigi, the difference between our situations is that I had this problem with Cellular data on while he hadn't used that. That suggests this issue has something to do with the bridge made between the Wi-Fi and Cellular data connections. So to be more specific about triggering this problem:

  1. Ensure both Wi-Fi and Cellular data are working.
  2. Switch on the hotspot and connect from another device, in order to use the (Cellular data-based) internet provided by the hotspot.
  3. Switch off the hotspot.
  4. Wi-Fi connection is no longer working properly.

@hummlbach Is this the same situation for you as well?

zubozrout commented 5 years ago

@myii Even though I wasn't asked I can confirm the exact same behaviour when working with a hotspot. I only use it sometimes if I need to for example connect with my laptop somewhere on the go and that's exactly what I do and when it fails.

myii commented 5 years ago

@zubozrout Thanks for your feedback. I was only pinging the other users who couldn't reproduce this issue, to find out whether Cellular data was enabled or not when they tested.

hummlbach commented 5 years ago

@myii no, hotspot is really working flawlessly on turbo here. I'm using it almost everyday on the train and I think I don't have any problems connecting to and using wifis afterwards. And of course I executed your steps just before sending this message (over my wlan). :) But so what, takeaway: its device specific.

myii commented 5 years ago

@hummlbach Great, at least it isn't affecting all devices. Thanks for your response.

SaltyCybernaut commented 5 years ago

I also have a Nexus 5 (hammerhead) on 16.04(OTA-7) with the identical issue. Only a reboot resolves the issue.

luksus42 commented 4 years ago

This issue still persists... anyway I found a workaround, which may lead to a solution: After turning hotspot off, restart unity8 by using Ubuntu Touch Tweak Tool. Effect:

  1. The hotspot indicator will appear (if it didn't already).
  2. The hotspot switch is enabled again.
  3. Now you can turn off hotspot again and everything works a exspected.

I think the unity8 restart will also affect the issues #281 and #1056.
