That's possible re the power supply.
I have noticed that there are updates for the ispindel firmware on github.
I have been using 6.5.1 and there has been 6.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.1.1 and in last 48 hours the binary for 7.1.2.
For 7.0 it mentions
Added enableWiFiAtBootTime() to enable legacy wifi persistence (
#513)
PlatformIO build configurations tweak (resolves
#500) (
#510)
Fix preprocessor directives to be able to turn APIs on and off if needs (
#511)
So I'll try and upgrade to 7.1.2 and see what happens.
My recent problems whilst making some ispindels meant I learnt how to use putty, this shows the activity that's occurring.
It's possible to plug the ispindel in and connect the usb to the data port ( the one you program through not charge ) and then log the activity and this might give a clue to raise a bug report. I used this to find out that the accelerometer ( gyro ) was broken and also it indicated that the temp sensor was not working. After several changes of those I found out it was a duff D1 Mini.
I was told by Daniel and by LBussy that it could only work brewpiless inside the network.
