That's exactly my problem,
after running docker everything good, I can scan and connect to out wifi, but when I want access to AP from my phone it refuses connection or say password does not correct or say we have a problem in authentication.
could you help whats the problem and how can we fix it?

There may be a solution to this issue however more research needs to be done to understand why WPA supplicant is prone to failure after a time. Any work on this in the future should be done on the txn2 fork. https://github.com/txn2/txwifi

Thanks
