Hello,
I am using your turnkey to convert my raspberry pi to hotspot and then connect it to wifi network. But when I enter the credentials in login page and press sign in, it gives network error. Though the raspberry pi is connected to my wifi but when I try to ssh into my pi using putty it gives connection timed out error (I am using the same ip address that I earlier used to ssh into my pi). Can anyone help me out here?

I am having a very similar issue. It shows that it is connected to the Wifi on the GUI but states network is unreachable when I ping the router. Currently chasing a possible DNS issue but have not resolved the error yet. If anyone else has run into this and has a fix it would be very helpful.

I'm also having a similar issue, though the issue occurred after running sudo apt dist-upgrade

Ridley, I determined that this was an issue with the DNS setup. I was never able to resolve the issue and ended up using a less comprehensive version of this program. Good luck.

Greetings,
I am not exactly sure I was having the same problem, but it could be related.
After entering the credentials I lost connection as well and the pi (zero in my first attempt, hence the WiFi) was unreachable. I did some debugging on a Pi 3 via ethernet and found, that the script get's stuck in an infinite loop waiting for an ip address, which it couldt get, due to the stopped dhcpcd service. However, the wlan0 interface was already associated with my WiFi, so I looked for that instead and everything worked well:
line 105 in startup.py becomes
success = "wlan0: Associated with"
Let me know if that works for you, then I could open a PR.
