You should be able to reproduce that behavior with: wpacli interface_remove wlan0 wpacli interface_add wlan0 But if the problem shows in wpacli too, then it's not just a D-Bus interface issue, but a core supplicant issue. Debug logs with "-dddt" from when the problem starts would be necessary. Also, what wifi driver? Dan > I've been able to recreate this 3 times now.
