I have not been able to reproduce this. Do you have an aggressive screen timeout or router role configured?

No, the Heltec is in Client Role and the display remains on. It just switches back after <1 second to the „normal view“.

I have attempted and unable to reproduce. Can you retest with 2.7.10 to determine if you can provide reproduction steps? Perhaps a video also may be useful.

I just tested on 2.7.10 connecting from macOS and was not able to replicate.

Which device are you connecting from?

It is a windows 11 pc and I used the webclient in the chrome browser. But I also noticed this behavior in earlier version with an iPhone
