I encountered the same issue sometimes in the last weeks. And fixed it the same way, as you did.
I am on Edge channel.
Mostly it happened when deactivating hotspot again. But because the hotspot did not deactivate properly, the wifi was not usable anymore and I needed to reboot.

But since nearly a week the issue seems to be gone, at least for me.

@ingo yes, I had the same kind of issue on my FP2 and gave up...

@guru said in BQ E4.5 (OTA-7) and Wifi 5 GHz:

Can I see somehow in the logs or elsewhere the actual used connection in the UBports installation?

Perhaps "iwconfig" in the terminal-app provides some information.

Just want to leave two possibly useful links here:

Firmwarefiles of current FP2 OS release:

But I am not sure, if the firmware did really change from one release to another...

@randomuser I can't confirm this.
Are you using version 2.2.1.2?

I have just added the kodimote app to the openstore.

I already did a build for 16.04, without any changes, but it has issues with apparmor.
It's only working with 'template: "unconfined"', which is the reason I did not publish it to the openstore yet.

Yes, do a fast release.
Currently (before last OTA) there are so much fixes, that the stable users have to wait for one or two months.
I think it's better to get fixes to stable channel quick.

just use the email-client dekko2 (https://open-store.io/app/dekko2.dekkan)?

Ah, I was a little bit wrong: All SIM-pin entry screens are like this (on 16.04-devel FP2):

And PIN / password to unlock display is like this:
