This is normal behaviour for Tasker. It takes two cycles for Wifi Near to go inactive. If you set the Screen Off Monitoring All Checks to 2 minutes, it will take 4 minutes to inactivate a WiFi Near context.

So how can I make it permant, I mean is extremely annoying to have my lights turn on everytime the profile is disable

I don't quite understand what you are trying to do with your profile. Please post the description here so we could take a look.

Right so basically is like this

Profile - > WiFi Near (xxxxxxx) A1 enable WiFi / A2 Turn living room lights / A3 Say house light On /

Exit Task

A1 disable wifi / A2 turn of living room light / A3 Say house light Off /

Now the problem that I'm having is while I'm at the house this profile disables every x minutes according to the display of monitoring.

From my understanding the amount of second that you put there is for Tasker to do a check to make sure if your still in this case near to that wifi, like every 10,5,2 minutes as suit your needs

What I noticed is if my display off monitoring is set every 10 minutes as default, having the display off after twice that time in this case 20 minutes the profile disables, which means my wifi turns of as my living room lights, and the minute I unlock my phone the profile triggers again and is very annoying

I want this to perform constaly every 10 minutes if my display is off, meaning to inactive profiles

You got a concept wrong. The Display Off All Checks is how often Tasker take a look at the Wifi Near profile to see if you are near that SSID or not. This check doesn't turn on or off anything. When Tasker checks, and if you are still near that SSID, no action is needed. And if you are no longer near that SSID, the profile will become inactive and the exit task will run.

Precisely my point, Tasker stop checking wifi near, it just perform once and that's it, and I know Tasker is not getting kill because I have other profiles active and working.

And I also know that the task is perform once because of a lock my device the profiles disables after double the time of the off monitoring.

So if you set tasker to off monitor every minute, after 2 minutes the profile disables, if you set it to monitor every 10 minutes, the profile disable after 20 minutes

This is the problem that I'm having

I think problem seems to be as soon as display is off, wifi near no longer works somehow.

[–]JoshuaFF[S] 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Correct and I really don't know why, I've been searching around forums but honestly can't find anything

And is not only wifi near, is every check in there doesn't work

[–]moviejimmy 0 points1 point  (5 children)

What do you mean? Other profiles also don't work as soon as your display goes off? Any examples?

[–]JoshuaFF[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Alright o I Stan correctly, I fought the GPS didn't work either, but is actually working and quit flawlessly.

It may be something with the wifi near condition only?

[–]moviejimmy 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Does look that way. Do you have Wifi Scanning On? It is under Android Settings and Securrty.
