Describe the problem

I have 3 routers, two are running openwrt, one is just an extender, and a third some random tp link from my isp, when I tap connect on the android app while connected to either of the openwrt netgear routers, regardless of whether im connected to the 5ghz or 2.4ghz, the app crashes instantly, just closes. While on the tp link it connects just fine. I have tried this on multiple of my android devices and same happens on all. I am using the latest version of the app. When i tried to export the logs from the app they are an empty file. If there is anything i could try I would be glad to, change some option on my routers etc, but i just dont know what causes the instant crash.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to Wifi settings, connect to either of the openwrt routers.
  2. Click on Connect in the android app.
  3. App closes instantly.

Expected behavior

For the app to connect to the server normally and not crash.

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

self-host NetBird's control planel.

NetBird version

netbird version
Im not sure how to run this command since my self hosted panel is on docker, but everything is the latest public version from a day or two ago. Android app is 0.0.22

Additional context

I would be happy to supply any additional info that is needed to help resolve this crash.

@xddman Could you take a test with the 0.0.23 version too?

Yes, the version 0.0.23 did indeed fix the issue of crashing. My appologies as I have not seen it come out yesterday. Thank you, this issue is resolved.
