iPhone disconnects from hotspot

scheme · Wed Feb 21, 2018 4:01 pm

Hello!

I have problem with mikrotik and iPhone.

I use hotspot. My network is open (without password). WiFi on iPhone turns off when the user turns off the screen and it sleeps ~20 seconds. After turning on the phone WiFi does not connect immediately.

On my iPad 2017 the delay is 4-5 sec. It is not bad. Unfortunately, some people have delay up to 30 seconds. It is not comfortable. It is problem. And I have no idea how to fix it.

I experimented with the settings of the WiFi. Nothing changed. I increased all related parameters keep alive, idle timers, DHCP leases time. Nothing changed.

I tried to deactivate hotspot. In this case there are no disconnects.

So, iPhone "remember" that this network is hotspot and test it before connection. Can I minimize or escape time of reconnect?

Android phones works fine.

Logs:

So intresting, I turn on iPhone at 16:20:34, logs starts with delay.

Code: Select all

https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:H ... MAC_Cookie
You should activate MAC Cookies, this will help in your situation.

Unfortunately, there is no effect.

I see the device in IP -> Hotspot -> Active, IP -> Hotspot -> Hosts (with "A" flag). I see cookie in IP -> Hotspot -> Cookies (with empty domain), but connection to WiFi still slowly.

Can you post:

/ip hotspot export

2frogs · Wed Feb 21, 2018 5:27 pm

Also, what do you have for your DHCP Lease Time? Having a short lease will also give an issue.

Can you post:
Code: Select all
/ip hotspot export

Sorry, problem with markup.

/ip hotspot profile

I increased the DHCP Lease Time from 10 minutes to 4 hours

You should also set the Hotspot address pool to none. This is a NAT helper, intended to help device that have static IPs set in their network settings. It can cause more issues than it solves. If you see multiple attempts in the hotspot from the same MAC but different IPs, this is the cause.
