Dear all experts,
I am using netpi with firmware virsion V1.2.0.0.
I want to use netpi as a access point with a dhcp server.
Since, I changed netpi's wifi settings as the attached picture.
For a short time, it works well.
However, after a particular reboot, the dhcp server does not works.
A client(Windows machine) can connect to netpi through wifi, but no ip adresses are assigned.
It can recover by resetting netpi's wifi configuration by pushing "Save changes" button.
However, after a while, the problem occurs again after a reboot.
For your information, the followings are dnsmasq error messages in syslog.

I want to know the cause of this problem and how can I avoid it.
Best regards.
