Thansk for the info pazos! I tried deleting network.lua but unfortunately the problem persists. Actually, to be more precise, the problem occurs sometimes, roughly every second time I try to connect. I'm not sure if it's better than it was before as I don't think I tried it repeatedly. But what happens is that I tap "Wi-Fi Connection" and it asks me if I want to turn on Wi-Fi. If I say yes, the list of networks appears with my SSID in it 3 times and it just sits there. If I tap on the background to dismiss the list, then tap Wi-Fi connection again, I get the same list but all three rows with my SSID have "disconnect" next to them, and it actually connects. So this may be better than before, but why does it only work every second time?

I'm wondering if each of the networks returned by getNetworkList() has the password associated with it, or if only one of them does (the one the device was connected to when I entered the password in Nickel). Maybe if it obtains the networks in a different order the one at the top doesn't have a password so it doesn't connect. But then you'd think it would keep going down the list until it finds the one that does

If I get time this week I might write a bit of code to log this.
