Help with wifi profiles

Check that the boot task happens correctly when the device is rebooted.

Check also the state of the geofence monitor in Autolocation.
 
Will have to figure out how auto location works and how your tasks work little complicated to me not sure if I'm saying this right.... If you don't mind me asking... U have a degree in computers ( I. T. ) to write this program
 
There are 3 monitors:
Activities: still, walking, driving etc
Geofences: just for triggers based on location, nice on battery
Location: keeps the location precise and updated regularly, less nice on battery if not careful

The boot task should make sure that the geofences monitor (and not the location monitor) is switched on automatically after a reboot.

When I leave home.... I have to hit play in exit home Geoface for Keyguard to be activated

When I arrive home I have to hit play in enter home Geoface for Keyguard to be deactivated...

No big deal just letting you know
 
It's a big deal. The point is for it to be automatic.

Go to your phone's Location settings (Settings > Location) and check that the mode is 'High Accuracy' and that AutoLocation is listed as using the location.

Under Location Service, open Google Location Reporting and check that the service is On.

In the advanced WiFi settings (Settings > WiFi > ⁞ > Advanced), check that 'Scanning always available' is On.

Also, to check that everything is working fine, check from your Tasker notification that the 'At Home' profile is correctly enabled when at home and disabled when not.
 
As long as you don't use GPS, the battery drain is low, so it's worth it.
Location based on WiFi is really useful, and perfect for the use of Geofences.
 
Thanks @WarriusZero for stepping in and lending a hand! :thumbup:

PS: Also thanks for helping the OP remove some personal information. I cleaned up that post and those related to it so they won't clutter the thread. :)
