Hi @sanketwadekar I have retest this issue and when I turn Hotspot on my phone OFF, the reason for disconnecting is Reason: 3 - AUTH_LEAVE, so when I turn the Hotspot ON again, ESP32 automatically reconnects.

Hi @sanketwadekar I have retest this issue and when I turn Hotspot on my phone OFF, the reason for disconnecting is Reason: 3 - AUTH_LEAVE, so when I turn the Hotspot ON again, ESP32 automatically reconnects.

Some users(Rainmaker) have reported that their device won't reconnect and the reason in their case was UNSPECIFIED, and I too was able to reproduce this. Would keeping this change cause issues for other users?

I will discuss it with colleagues. I am not sure, if there can be any other reasons marked as "UNSPECIFIED", where we should not do auto-reconnect.

@me-no-dev and @pedrominatel we have discussed this PR a bit during today's meeting and we were not sure about proposed fix. Can you please help with review? Thanks.

Adding the WIFI_REASON_UNSPECIFIED to the isReconnectableReason could fix but I think the WIFI_REASON_UNSPECIFIED could be generic and cause some unexpected reconnection attempt when reconnecting is not necessary.

This fix could be acceptable but more investigation can be done to be sure that this fix will work in most cases.

Is there any other reason that could be considered to be a reconnectable reason in the wifi_err_reason_t?

Hi guys,

I've changed the approach to the ESP-IDF recommendation.

PTAL @sanketwadekar and @me-no-dev at my proposal.

Now the reconnection should be done always except if the disconnection was done by the user.
