      Hi to everyone.

      I have a problem with the function wlan.connect() that does not raise any exception if timeout expires.

      If a user insert a wrong SSID or a wrong Password, how I can dectect this? Also if the timeout expires, the while not wlan.isconnected() keeps on a infinte loop.

      Thx a lot

        @Innocenzo The latter is easy, I have that in all of my espxxx's main.py:

        wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA)
        for _ in range(10):
            if wlan.isconnected():
                print('\nnetwork config:', wlan.ifconfig())
                break
            print('.', end='')
            time.sleep(1)
        else:
            print("\nCould not connect")
