If the ESPEasy are unable to join to the WIFI, that you specify it defaults to AP mode. Try to place the ESP near the AP, and retry.
Hint: Wifi name and password is also case sensitive. :)

For what should it be good for? If the AP is in reach again, the ESP connects to it automatically.

@vader:
From a security standpoint, could disabling the AP fallback be a good idea. Like suggested in this issue: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/issues/663

Possible. There are some solutions, however not so not elegant: :)

@vader: It surely isn't a big code change. Discussion about what's wanted is 90% of the work with features like these :)
For instance how to re-enable the AP? :) (that will add another 5 minutes of programming)
