Description
Hey @kueblc!
Thanks for the amazing work you have done on this project and your continued support.
I'm having issues connecting to the SSID vtrust-flash which is being broadcasted, my phone says unable to connect.
I've tried with both **Ubuntu 18.04** and **Raspberry Pi desktop** running on **Oracle VM VirtualBox**. For the wifi adapter I'm using **Ralink RT5370**. I've tried both docker image and regular start_flash.sh method and got stuck at the same step where I'm supposed to connect to vtrust-flash on my phone.
Let me know if you need more information. Appreciate your help and support.
Thanks
Jay

IMPORTANT
1. Connect any other device (a smartphone or something) to the WIFI vtrust-flash
This step is IMPORTANT otherwise the smartconfig may not work!
2. Put your IoT device in autoconfig/smartconfig/pairing mode (LED will blink fast). This is usually done by pressing and holding the primary button of the device
Make sure nothing else is plugged into your IoT device while attempting to flash.
3. Press ENTER to continue

Research direction
Use start_flash.sh as the main entry point and reproduce the connection failure with the reported Ralink RT5370 adapter in the Ubuntu or Raspberry Pi desktop VirtualBox setup. Compare the regular and Docker startup output, especially the network-interface, firewall, and service checks. Done means a phone can connect to the vtrust-flash SSID and proceed past the displayed prompt.
