I am using the otg verion of LK8000 on a Kobo Nia. It's working well up to version 7.4.6. With all versions starting with 7.4.8 and above, I can't connect to wifi anymore. Clicking on 'Wifi on' button does not work. Strangely, I think the wifi problem is only with the otg version.
Maybe it has something to do with the fix announced on the 7.4.8 release: "Wifi On/Off support on newer kobo models". Did it break the wifi support on my old kobo Nia ?
Tks for help.

check the file "LK8000/kobo/error.log" for error.

otg/ non-otg is the same for kobo-NIA...

Maybe some files are now now corrupted. But it's ok I can reset.

Can the kobo Nia work with a GPS usb dongle, in OTG mode ?
I just installed the lk8000 otg version to do that and then saw the wifi not working.
