Hi,
as you may have noticed I've just pushed a few changes into main which
I hope will solve some of the problems people have been seeing with
stability.
Everyone running HEAD: it would be great to see if these commits help you.
There are still more rough edges to sort out and probably some cases
I could not test/reproduce but piling more up isn't helpful.
For eveyone on stable/13: I'll try to get all other changes (before
today) moerged to stable/13 and will merge these in 3-ish days as
well. You could always cherry-pick them manually yourself. Let me
know if you would want to and need help for that.
Things I noticed:
(a) if you think you "cannot connect" it might be that wpa_supplicant
managed to associate but not authorize. I have that once in a while.
Check your wpa_supplicant logs (possibly increase the log level).
Usually triggering a successful scan (I often have to try twice):
ifconfig wlan0 scan
ifconfig wlan0 scan
will then DTRT for me and on 2nd attempt authorizing will work.
If wpa_supplicant decided to disable the network temporary
(wpa_cli list_networks will tell) you can disable / enable
the network to unblock that as well.
(b) ifconfig wlanX down / up needs some state to clear as well
to work better. I'll look into that probably Thursday along
with hw_restart so that we can recover from firmware crashes
if general state got better now.
