Doesn't recognise network added by 3rd party application

Open Taomyn opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

We use MaaS360 (an MDM) on our work devices and it adds our private workplace SSID and password via its policy enforcement. Unfortunately PrivacyPolice ignores this entry in the list of saved networks and never prompts for it. If I delete the network myself and then enter it manually, PrivacyPolice sees it and prompts me to accept the connection, but any update from MaaS360 can overwrite this and then it gets ignored again.

I'm not sure why a 3rd party app adding a network would be any different to doing it manually, but PrivacyPolice doesn't acknowledge them.

That is indeed strange, as PrivacyPolice just asks the Android system for a list of all saved networks. Maybe MaaS360 bypasses the Android Wi-Fi stack?
