@Evan-D , based on the contents of /data/misc/wifi/hostapd.conf :

# Maximum number of stations allowed in station table. New stations will be # rejected after the station table is full. IEEE 802.11 has a limit of 2007 # different association IDs, so this number should not be larger than that. # (default: 32) #max_num_sta=32

It is possible that after your device has seen 32 different clients, it cannot accept new ones.

You can examine this config file and /usr/bin/voxl-wifi (which is used to set the device into the ap mode) and try to increase the number of stations.

@Eric-Katzfey Reinstalling px4 solved my problem, thanks for your help!

@Evan-D ,

VOXL m500 uses VOXL1 computing board, which comes with a wifi module on board. The wifi module can be configured in SoftAP mode (access point) or station mode.

If the ground sensors have wifi access points, then once m500 gets close to the access points, it can connect to those access points.

Alternatively, m500 could be an access point and once it is within range of the ground sensor, the ground sensor could detect m500 wifi SSID and connect to it.
