[const.IFACE_DISCONNECTED, const.IFACE_INACTIVE]
profile = pywifi.Profile()
profile.ssid = 'testap'
profile.auth = const.AUTH_ALG_OPEN
profile.akm.append(const.AKM_TYPE_WPA2PSK)
profile.cipher = const.CIPHER_TYPE_CCMP
profile.key = '12345678'
iface.remove_all_network_profiles()
tmp_profile = iface.add_network_profile(profile)
iface.connect(tmp_profile)
time.sleep(30)
assert iface.status() == const.IFACE_CONNECTED
