Help with wifi profiles

Did you ever get your lock screen to disable?

#2 in the list about setting up the variables was completed.

Yes but sometimes it not unlock till I played the task

I can't even get it unlocked unless I use another profile that I set up before I saw this one. All it is based on a state>Wifi Connected {name of wifi}
Enter: Wait 10 sec
Keyguard > set off.

How many meters is your geofence ....

@Afrosheen, if I remember right, there should be a 'Boot Task' (or 'Initial Setup'...). Run it once to initialise all the variables.

The geofences do not use GPS, but Wifi. So they need a Wifi to check against and a data connection to query Google's servers...

I turned off the Location {GPS} and a notification Geofence Monitor Stopped.

When I had the Location on I saw the "Dot" where I was. With it off it's not there.
I clicked Geofences Monitor and it started. Went to manage the Home fence and it said Inside. I tried looking at the fence and all it did was show me a picture of the world. The only way I saw the fence was with location on.

BTW, wifi is on.

Location needs to be enabled, yes. What I meant is that the geofences are not going to use the GPS.

Thanks for the reply. The problem I have now is Keyguard is still active/on.
Any suggestions on how to get the Keyguard off?

Right now I'm using another profile like listed above in a couple of posts that works.

Your Screen off profile doesn't seem to do anything.

I am at home ( green in tasker)
... locatetion geofences monitor is active
Wifi is. Always scanning on
Google reporting location ..on

Any ideas why keyguard is not disabled[/QUOTE]

FYI, I have edited all my posts that included a link to my projects on Google Drive. They now all point to the same link.
I've done this as I was receiving emails requiring access to the old files (using my personal email address).

Note that I don't offer support on this project (while I can answer the odd question) as since I've upgraded my Nexus 4 to Android 5.0 Lollipop, I've changed a lot the way I use Tasker.

In short, the OS is so good on the battery (and Tasker needs an update to better support Lollipop - e.g. Data On/off doesn't work) that there is no point trying clever things with connectivity.

Tasker is now mainly relevant for me in the car and for audio volumes...
