After Andy's most recent changes I now have one hotspot with BM connection which is fine but the other BM-connected hotspot which also has YSF enabled is refusing to log in despite resetting the server, hotspot password and several apply changes and a reboot. The DMR net status is yellow, log shows repeated login attempts failing.

Ah, spoke too soon, more changes incoming. Which seems to have sorted things out.

OK well that wasn't fun...

Update your Pi-Stars, and the dashboard is all fixed up, BM passwords stay put once they are set now - that should really help for turning DMR off and on again etc too.

For anyone else playing along at home, update before visiting the config page and setting the new BM host should be less painfull.

Okay, just updated another hotspot. After re-selecting my DMR Master, all was great. BM Hotspot Security password was there automatically, and I didn't need to click Apply Changes to apply it.

Nice work, Andy! Thank you.

Jason, nice to bump elbows with you again over a bit of troubleshooting!

Interestingly I just re-updated and when I went into the Configuration page I noticed that the DMR ESSID seemed to have reverted to the default. I don't know if it was like this when I initially had to reselect the master. I switched it back to 01 and applied the change.
Only then did I look at the Hotspots info on Brandmeister, where things looked as desired.
If it really was using the DMRId only without the ESSID, then it would have been colliding with my new OpenSpot3, but I hadn't experienced any issues that led me to think something was going wrong.
