Recently upgraded from 14 to 20, installed 20230402, and can no longer connect to WPA3 only security wifi networks (no issues in 14) .. is this a known issue?

My grandparents have this one router from syrotech given by bsnl as part of their fiber connection.

Other devices(now working, but modded phones still give problems, my uncle fixed some issues by using wpa3 personal.) used to have the exact same issue: disconnects, reconnects bc autoconnect, repeat.

This seems to be known problematic around XDA.

The phones in question: My oneplus one(last time I came here), lineage 18.1(rip)

My grandma's note 5 pro running 18.1(no magisk, nothing, all stock except mind the gapps)

My moto z play with aicp based on lineage18.1(I don't expect help with this one, but as long as my grandma's phone works, I'm good)

Tried workarounds: My uncle switched to wpa2 router side in the past, all devices had the same issue, not just the modded phones. A workaround ironically was to re-enable wpa3 personal.

Is there a way to force my modded phones to disable wpa3/connect only via wpa2?

I know the issue is on bsnl's side, and I should follow up with them for a different router model, but let's say that's not an option unless worst case since that's already been tried and lead nowhere.

Edit: I don't get it. I cannot figure it out. I went to another house where they had a different router but the compatibility layer for wpa3 personal worked fine 100%.

Best I can do now is set a second router up in access point mode via ethernet.

Edit 2: I used a dir600l that was lying around and set up wan port as dhcp client, and some IP allocation adjustments. Now it works very well. Thanks for the help and support.

Backgrounds: Last year, Google made a change to android disabling wifi connection to wpa2/3 enterprise network without server certification verification (More info here) This behavior was intended to improve security so that users will not leak their credentials if presented with fake wifi. However, such change created inconvenience among users (For example here and here) .

Suggestion: Personally, I believe security does not mean everything. In this case, it is a choice between nothing to use and something to use with just a little security risk. What's more, android is the only OS disabling such connection, it will take some time before every enterprise wifi provides proper certs. So I hope LinageOS can keep the old behavior for some time.

Work needed: I dig into android source code and find the relevant commit. I believe revert the commit, or at least delete the relevant part should let connection without certs working again. If I have the hardware resource for compiling LineageOS, I would test it myself. So if someone can test the change and push it to LineageOS, it would be really appreciated.

Thank you for reading!

Hi everyone,

I update my moto x4 (payton) to LOS 18 today.
Everything but wifi seems to work, wifi search works fine, it finds all networks w/o a problem, but I was unable to connect to any wifi network.

Im not exactly sure why it doesn't, it says failed to connect to network, but I looked a bit inside logcat where it records ConnectAttempt: 32 ConnectFailure: 0 , but HasEverConnected: false, Failures: {Assoc: 0, Auth: 0, Dhcp: 0}, which seems a bit odd to me. Anyway, if anyone has an idea how to fix it or some logs relevant for this, post below, because I do not know where to obtain the logs for fixing this.

Thanks in advance

Edit: found log below seems to be a weird wpa problem, help anyone?

Edit2: After seeing that both OWE and WPA3 resulted in weird crypo? failures, I disabled both on my router, now both networks work. Question is now why do modern encryption standards not work with LOS 18 (they did whith 17.1)?

Hi all,
I have a problem with my WIFI.
I have a Galaxy S5 neo (SM-G903F) with LineageOS 17.1. I switched from Stock Android to LOS only 2 weeks ago.
When my phone is in standby (display black) the WIFI disconnects after a short while. Even when an App (e.g. spotify) constantly uses WIFI. This means I can't listen to spotify over WIFI because I have to reconnect the WIFI every 15 minutes or so. I remember that there was an option to disconnect WIFI when in standby some years ago but I can't find it.
The second Problem is that after the WIFI disconnected itself, it doesn't reconnect automatically when I unlock the phone. I have to switch the WIFI off and on again every time to reconnect the WIFI.

Does anybody know what to do?
Thanks in advance.

Edit: how I used ADB to change the setting from PC:

$ adb shell

$ settings put global wifi_suspend_optimizations_enabled 0

To check if setting is applied:

$ settings get global wifi_suspend_optimizations_enabled

It didn't solve the problem but I believe it improved the situation a little

OWE works fine. WPA3-Enterprise and 192-bit are supported. What is the problem with WPA3-Personal?

Device: OP3T

Hey there,

I'm using the latest HTC One M8 build and my WiFi keeps dropping whenever I try to ise WiFi. I then have to restart wifi for it to drop 10 seconds later. Thanks for any help in advance!
