Orange Pi Zero 3 WiFi Access Point Broken using Ubuntu Image

[EMAIL KERJA]

Problem

I created a Bridge Access Point using Orange Pi Zero 3 with the Ubuntu OS. However, after going through a fairly lengthy configuration, there is an issue when trying to connect to my Orange Pi Zero 3 Access Point.

The problem is: it gets stuck at 'authenticate,' and there is no pop-up to enter the password on my smartphone.

Question

 

I have used this configuration on Orange Pi Zero 2, and it worked successfully. There are around 100 devices running in production using this setup. However, when I tried to apply the same configuration to Orange Pi Zero 3, it failed, and I haven't found many forums discussing it yet. Could it be because Orange Pi Zero 3 is still relatively new?

 

How can I resolve this issue? I've heard there are quite a few bugs in the Ubuntu OS for Orange Pi Zero 3.
