ConnMan is not saving WIFI connection choice (BookwormPup64 10.0.8)

Post by bigpup »

BookwormPup64 10.0.8
Frugal install using a save folder
Running in pupmode12, so save is updated as things change.

I have 2 WIFI signals, I can connect to, for WIFI. Two completely different services to my house.
WIFI 1
WIFI 2

On first boot up, using ConnMan to do connection, I setup WIFI 1 for connection.
Rebooted, made a save, and WIFI 1 was auto connected.

Right now WIFI 1 service is down and not working.

So when I boot, I select ConnMan, and select to use WIFI 2. Set it up to connect and I have working WIFI connection.

This change should be now in the save.

On next boot up.
ConnMan is trying to still use the WIFI 1 to connect.

I have to run ConnMan again and select and setup to use WIFI 2.

So, ConnMan is not saving the new change to use WIFI 2.

In the list of available WIFI signals.
WIFI 1 is always the top one.
If that has anything to do with it? :idea:

Update info:
I can boot BookwormPup64 10.0.7

Make these changes.

Reboot and WIFI 2 is auto connected and used.

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

Is autoconnect checked on WIFI 1 so it's still trying to connect to it on reboot?

No.

I think I correctly un-check it to not auto connect for WIFI 1 setup.

But seems to have no affect.
