Since the update to 2.1.24 the password for my WLAN at home is forgotten and consequently I have no wifi connection.

I assume the problem lies in how connection errors are handled: sometimes I get in the reach of other WLANs with the same SSID, to which no connection is possible due to the different password. Before the update this was no problem at all.

I have only experienced this once so far, it was preceded by a long time of poor wifi coverage, so some correlation to connection errors sounds likely. At home i have had no issues, perhaps as the coverage is very good. Why would you (want to) have the same SSID as someone else?

Could this had happen to you? https://together.jolla.com/question/164679/connect-to-internet-tapping-on-connect-with-empty-psk-deletes-wlan/
or is it still in the list of saved networks?

@A.Maretzek When the password is forgotten it is still in the list. But when I select the network, it asks for the password. If I do not enter the correct one the network is removed from the list.

With 2.1.1 I am experiencing a lot of problems when moving between WiFi and mobile network: - Sometimes I have to explicitely switch off WiFi as otherwise I get no mobile connection. - When I'm at home, very often the WiFi re-connection fails and I have to de- and activate it again. After this I need to enter the password.

Shouldn't this be a comment, not an answer?

Not sure if this is an answer... I had the same problem. I manually removed the home network from the phone "Forger network" Rebooted phone (not sure if this step was necessary but I did it anyway) then connected back to the home network as if it was the first time. I've had no issues since. Hope that helps.

Have the same problem... but...
First I have static ip for my home (and other) network and If for some reason it not connected automatically and I'm trying connect from Notification screen, it asking for password and delete my static setting from Settings app.
But if instead connecting from notification screen, I'm going to Setting -> Wlan and taping on my network, it just connect without any problem and without asking pass, also it not delete my static setting.
Expected the same from notification screen, but from 2.1.1.23 it buggy in this way....
