Hi Jason,

The AP is a dlink-DAP 2590.

The Wireless band is fixed to 2.4 GHz, the Channel is fixed to 6 and the 
Channel width to 20 MHz.

I've repeated the test. After rebooting the AP the frequency changed from 2467 
to 2422.

I've changed the frequency in the settings file and, voila, it worked.

Again, powering off changes the frequency from 2422 to 2462. Changing the 
settings makes connman connect correctly.

@Jukka: This does not happens when the AP is non-hidden. Frequency changed from 
2412 to 2457, still connman reconnects properly.

What should be the solution ? Creating a new wifi_xxx folder (why is not doing 
it now ?) or ignoring the frequency when dealing with hidden networks ?

Cheers.

The used frequency should not matter as ConnMan will do a scan anyway to find 
the hidden AP.

I am just wondering if this issue is related to hidden AP. Pedro, have you 
tested whether your client can autoconnect if you make your AP non-hidden?


Cheers,
Jukka
