Since a couple of weeks I started to notice that my wireless wouldnt remember my connection after a night sleep, and in order to reconnect I had to shut down the phone and turn it on again, back then this would solve the problem. However since today I am unable to connect to my wireless at home, I had restart the phone several times and then i see Wireless connected but after 5 sec. the connection dies and I see an exclamation on the wireless signal (!) and no matter what I tried it worked. I tried to search on internet for any solution, however I havent find anything similar. If someone has any experience with this or solution I will appreciate to be help.

Is you Jolla connecting to other Access Points OK or does it drop the link in the same way as with your home router?

Sounds like it is not getting an ip address. Do you have some mac blocking on your ap?

@richarddski, it was doing this already a couple of days ago with other wifi connections too. @Philippe, sorry for my ignorance but what is a mac?

Same here. Only since 1.1.1.27. Only way is to 'forget network' then re-add, and the phone connects immediately... but loses it again overnight. Router has not changed, nor obviously has my phone's mac address. Only thing of any possible significance is that my router is not broadcasting its ssid. But that hasn't changed either.

try to create a guest wifi, without limits, with password of course. Your device still have problems with connections? Try to disable static IPaddress , mac address, ecc....limitations
