Thanks. It seems that the default ACTIVITY_TIMEOUT setting for Wifi Connect is 0 (infinity). So once it starts an AP it will never stop waiting for someone to enter wifi credentials. I've changed it to a more reasonable setting (120).

Understand it's better to use Ethernet, but it should be able to deal with occasionally losing wifi without the need for manual intervention. Hopefully this setting change solves my issue.
