Revisiting a project that has been on the shelf for a few months and now with the 4.4.1 firmware I have having an issue with the RV171XV and APMode
For some reason, I am able to setup a Soft AP and see it, but I can only connect to it once. If I try to connect more than one device, or if I disconnect the first device and try reconnecting it to the Soft AP SSID, I get a message from the Mac, PC, iPad etc saying it can't connect to the WiFly Soft AP network
So, to restate
a) I upload my code and execute the following statements listed below
b) I see the network, and can connect a device (iPad, Mac, PC, etc) to the WiFly network
c) If I try to connect another device, I get a connection failure
d) If I disconnect the currently connected device, and try to reconnect it, I also get a connection failure
e) The only way to resolve the issue is to power cycle the chip
Here is an output of my setup statements and the resulting "get everything" command output
factory RESET

reboot
