Every now and then I am asked to enter the WiFi password. The password is already known and already prefilled in the popup - I only have to press enter. But - why is that?
The popup steals the focus and if I am typing without watching the screen I mess up the password by adding whatever I was typing to the WiFi password, having to reenter the correct one a moment later.
My laptop is switching between two APs in the house often. This sudden Wifi-Key asking is starting to drive me mad, though. I cannot predict when it will ask me, sometimes it does not happen for a day, sometimes a few times in an hour or so.
I am usually able to solve most issues myself, but here I don’t know how to get rid of that. Any idea how I can begin troubleshooting this?
