WIFI will not stay connected, MK4 + FW 6.0.0

After updating MK4 to FW 6.0.0, updating Wifi module, and reconnecting to wifi AP, the wifi status continually flips between "connected" and "no AP" every 2-3 seconds.

I have:

  • reset the printer
  • power cycled
  • recreated the wifi ini file for two different networks
  • updated the wifi module again
  • double-checked and recreated the ini file
  • factory reset the printer

What am I missing?

Experiencing the same issue after upgrading to FW 6.0.0. WiFi status shows "No AP".

WiFi AP side shows no attempt to connect from the ESP.

It seems that there is a known issue with WPA3 and the latest 6.0.0 firmware.

 [BFW-5393] [BUG] 6.0.0 - Wifi doesn't work in WPA3/WPA2 Transition mode #3864

https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/issues/3864

After turning off WPA3 authentication in the AP configuration for the printer network it seems that the printer is able to re-establish the WiFi connection.

Same issue here since the update to FW 6.0.0 RC1.
Using a Fritz!Box 7590.
-> After changing the WPA method from "WPA2 (CCMP)" to "WPA + WPA2" is seems to work now.
