Quick bit o' help needed (lost connections list)
 
Hi all,
I was just adding a new WPA-protected wifi connection to my 770 when it chose to reboot on me as it sometimes does (most often fortunately it does it at night while I'm sleeping :-).
Problem is, after rebooting (even several times) it seems to have lost the entire list of previous saved connections (wifi & phone). Only the new one remains :-(
Now, I boot from MMC so I probably have a good copy on the internal flash. Problem is, I'm on the road with no Net access now, and I can't borrow this here PC for ages while I search for this bit of info : where exactly is that file on the 770, so I can copy it from flash to MMC ?
I'll check back when I find another net connection I can borrow, to see if someone can help me out :-)
TIA,
fpp

ichmoimeyo, thanks a lot for that tip ! It is also good for the 770, I have it written down now with some other useful ones :-)

Actually, I could not check back here until today, and a strange thing happened in between : I haven't been using the tablet much these last few days, except for MaemoMapper+GPS, but it wasn't turned off either. And when I checked the connections list yesterday, out of curiosity, the new "phantom" connection was gone, and all the previous ones were back !!

Is this strange, or what ? On 7/16 when I posted my SOS, I could not get them back after several shutdowns and reboots - and now it looks as if nothing ever happened, and it hasn't even rebooted... Oh well :-)
