    Not sure what's going on, but my interface will not boot past step 4/7 wifi connecting. Was able to flash it via bootloader mode to 1.52, but no change. Was hoping to factory reset it, will keep looking for those instructions. In the meantime, if anyone has any other suggestions, let me know.

    Thanks Peter,

    I was able to get it erased and reflashed, flashed to 1.52 again. Booted it back up, configured the ap settings and it appears to be working again. Thanks!

    Unfortunately, we are back to waiting to connect to wifi on boot again. Is there anything I can provide that will help isolate and resolve this issue?

    1) Try a different access point
    if that's not an option
    2) Do not setup Wifi until you can try a different AP.

    Also check your AP logs for errors, make sure it has sufficient signal strength to reach the Interface properly (same room preferably), and is in good working order (DHCP etc)

    Interface gets stuck waiting for the AP to complete the connection (if no connection is found it would have moved on, so if it gets stuck, something on that AP is not replying as it should. Low signal dropout, non-working DHCP, etc)
