If I visit http://192.168.4.1/wifi/connstatus.cgi I get 'idle' even when the device is connected to an AP on bootup. My reading is that, on boot up, resetTimerCb() in cgiwifi.c doesn't get called so connTryStatus doesn't take the value CONNTRY_WORKING. On the other hand, connTryStatus never takes the value CONNTRY_SUCCESS.

Should connTryStatus take CONNTRY_SUCCESS the device connects to an AP on bootup? I don't think the connection status should be 'idle' when there's already an established connection.

Thanks

I see. But then CONNTRY_SUCCESS is an enum but it's never used.

That's because the CGI routine actually detects the success state in a different way, so that state in the enum wasn't needed.
