A connect can take a minute (30 s association + 45 s lease), and the
status screen showed no controls at all — no way out, no feedback — while
a second press of OK hit the "already connecting" guard and returned
silently, which reads as a dead button.

The status screen now keeps its header, so back is available throughout.
Backing out returns to the network list rather than popping out of Wi-Fi
setup entirely, and disowns the in-flight attempt by generation, so a
worker the user walked away from can no longer drag them back to the
password screen a minute later. Pressing OK during an attempt re-asserts
the "Connecting …" status instead of doing nothing.
