connectToProtectedSSID fail to conect

[jpdarveau]

I am trying to use the connectToProtectedSSID function and I always get the connection failed alert on my android phone.

I am able to get the wifi list, the current SSID, etc...

Could I be missing some configuration somewhere?

Is there a specific way to send the SSID and Password to the function?

I am using a Oneplus 6 phone and on Android 9

If you need more info, let me know.

Thanks

I have same problem.
I use:
react-native-cli: 2.0.1
react-native: 0.57.5
and test on samsung S8. The code is from the example:

let ssid = 'test';
let password = 'test';
WifiManager.connectToProtectedSSID(ssid, password, false)
.then(() => {
console.log('Connected successfully!')
}, () => {
console.log('Connection failed!')
})

Every time the result is "Connection failed"

Android, In RNWifiModule.java, line 186

Maybe, this is bug
connected = connectTo(result, password, ssid);
==>
connected = connectTo(result, password, ssid);
if (connected) { break; } <-- must be added

-> this may cause problems in some case
