Though the solution proposed there - and which folks report as effective - seems to be based on the SB device prompting on failure to *reconnect* to a known SSID after temporarily trying an entriely different SSID.... Even when the initial SSID (in which the password has been changed) is stored in the device as a Saved Network. Odd, IMHO. Anyway, though I have no memory of doing all this in any particular order, I'm stocking away in my mind that the easiest way, maybe, to avoid the issue is to make an SSID name-change as well as a password change, when the latter is needed for some reason. After all, every device - not just SBs - will need to have its password reset, so pointing to a new SSID is probably at most one extra button-press in the process. The other thing that struck me in the older thread was the suggestion that network change issues on SB devices can involve scrolling down past the bottom of the screen, or waiting to read the whole of a sideways scroll. Not always obvious that you need to do so. And that has fooled me a couple of times when doing set-ups or fault-finding - the option I needed was there, but I couldn't see it. There was something in a recent thread about choice of font size somewhat obscuring a necessary option.....
