[Solved]Lost Wifi settings after reboot

[Kuzma30]

@JoeCFD said in Lost Wifi settings after reboot:

QNetworkSettingsManager

Qt 6.7.0 (boot2qt distro), OS linux

@Kuzma30
But there's no QNetworkSettingsManagerin 6.7....

@Axel-Spoerl
Agree (I don't know from where I get this files in my bsp). Now I rolling back to 6.6.
How to connect to WiFI nbetwork with SSID and password in v6.6?

[Axel Spoerl]

@Kuzma30
It was removed.
The reason, in a nutshell, is that the OS typically takes care of that and an application shouldn't manage its own network settings.

@Axel-Spoerl
But this code works in QML 6.6 (Set button for enter password for SSID)

                QtButton{
                    id: setButton
                    text: qsTr("SET")
                    height: GUIParam.dialogButtonSize
                    onClicked: {
                        if (showSsid) {
                            NetworkSettingsManager.connectBySsid(ssidField.text, passField.text)
                            showSsid = false
                        } else {
                            NetworkSettingsManager.userAgent.setPassphrase(passField.text)
                        }
                        passphrasePopup.visible = false;
                    }
                }

@Kuzma30
Can you post a screenshot of what it does, when it runs?

[Kuzma30]

@Axel-Spoerl

I make photo of procedure connecting to WiFi in my app. User can't access to system parameters.

I am trying auto connect to wifi when main window loaded from ssid andd pass

    Component.onCompleted: {
        console.log("Check WiFi param")
        var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

        if (ssid !== "none") {
            console.log("Power On WiFi")
            for (var i = 0; NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i) !== null; i++) {
                var wifiInterface = NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, 0);
                wifiInterface.powered = true;
                pauseWiFi.start()
                console.log("power on")
            }
            NetworkSettingsManager.interfacesChanged();
            wifiSwitchTimer.start();
        }
    }
    Timer {
        id: pauseWiFi
        interval: 1000
        running: false
    }
    Timer {
        id: wifiSwitchTimer
        interval: 5000
        running: false
        onTriggered: {
            var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

            var pass = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_PASSWORD")

            console.log("Connecting to WiFi " + ssid)
            NetworkSettingsManager.connectBySsid(ssid, pass)
        }
    }

But I get error

Tried to scan while not powered

[Kuzma30]

Updated code. More progress.

    Component.onCompleted: {
        NetworkSettingsManager.interfacesChanged()
        pauseWiFi.start()
    }
    Timer {
        id: pauseWiFi
        interval: 3000
        running: false
        onTriggered: {
            NetworkSettingsManager.services.type = NetworkSettingsType.Wifi;
            console.log("Check WiFi param")
            var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

            if (ssid !== "none") {
                console.log("Power On WiFi")
                //sc.setWiFiOn()

                for (var i = 0; NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i) !== null; i++) {
                    console.log("i="+i)
                    var wifiInterface = NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i);
                    wifiInterface.powered = true;

                    console.log("power on")
                }

            }
            wifiSwitchTimer.start();
        }
    }
    Timer {
        id: wifiSwitchTimer
        interval: 5000
        running: false
        onTriggered: {
            var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

            var pass = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_PASSWORD")

            console.log("Connecting to WiFi  \""+ ssid + "\"")

            NetworkSettingsManager.userAgent.setPassphrase(pass)
            NetworkSettingsManager.connectBySsid(ssid, pass)
            NetworkSettingsManager.interfacesChanged()
        }
    }

Now program poweron WiFi, NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i) != null.
But result of connectBySsid() with correct ssid and pass - powered on WiFi but without connection.
I try code with and without NetworkSettingsManager.interfacesChanged() in the end. Same results.

[Kuzma30]

Final code, that working for me

   Component.onCompleted: {
        NetworkSettingsManager.interfacesChanged()
        pauseWiFi.start()
    }
    Timer {
        id: pauseWiFi
        interval: 3000
        running: false
        onTriggered: {
            NetworkSettingsManager.services.type = NetworkSettingsType.Wifi;
            console.log("Check WiFi param")
            var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

            if (ssid !== "none") {
                console.log("Power On WiFi")
                for (var i = 0; NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i) !== null; i++) {
                    console.log("i="+i)
                    var wifiInterface = NetworkSettingsManager.interface(NetworkSettingsType.Wifi, i);
                    wifiInterface.powered = true;

                    console.log("power on")
                }

            }
            wifiSwitchTimer.start();
        }
    }
    property var connectingService: null
    Timer {
        id: wifiSwitchTimer
        interval: 5000
        running: false
        onTriggered: {
            var ssid = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_SSID")

            var pass = param.getParameterValue("WIFI_PASSWORD")

            console.log("Connecting to WiFi  \""+ ssid + "\"")

            for (var index = 0; index < 10; index++) {
                if (NetworkSettingsManager.services.itemFromRow(index).name===ssid){
                    console.log("Found SSID at index = "+ index)
                    root.connectingService = NetworkSettingsManager.services.itemFromRow(index)
                }
            }
            root.connectingService.connectService();
            NetworkSettingsManager.userAgent.setPassphrase(pass)
            vpntimer.start();
        }

    }
        Timer{
            id: vpntimer
            interval: 5000
            running: false
             onTriggered: {
                 console.log("Start VPN")
                 processWrapper.executeCommand("systemctl start openvpn-client@client")
             }
        }
