Problems connecting to wifi

Open nikhil-bhandari opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

I have just started using your module in my hobby project, and after running your sample code I notice strange behavior on my system. If I try to connect to a network with ssid XYZ, I don't get any errors and the wifi doesn't connect to that network. ir. the callback doesn't get executed.

Now after that if I manually try to connect to the same network using ubuntu's menu I cannot connect until I restart my laptop.

I tried

sudo service network-manager restart

sudo service networking restart

but that doesn't solve the problem.

I tried this code on MAC OS and I still had the same problem. is it a known issue?

Ubuntu: 16 04 LTS / 14 04 LTS MacOSX El Capitan 10.11.6

Thanks and Regards Nikhil

Nikhil,

Unfortunately I haven't been able to maintain this project. I haven't tested it on modern Linux installations.

OS X support never really worked (their CLI's are much much different).

ok, thanks for replying

I checked your source code and I think I know how it works..

I'll try to fix it and may send you a PR
