Network connection prompt loops when my android app attempts to connect to specified network

I am new to android development and am attempting to create a simple example app that connects to a specified network when a button is pressed.

I have found a few examples of other questions but they are using the now deprecated WifiManager.addNetwork()

Currently when I test locally on my Huawei P20 (Android Version 10) a connection prompt pops up, scans for and finds the correct network, I connect, gives "Connection Successful" message, then prompt pops up again and repeats and repeats and repeats...

With "verbose" debugging these messages keep repeating as I keep connecting in prompt

D/ZrHung.AppEyeUiProbe: not watching, wait.  D/ZrHung.AppEyeUiProbe: restart watching  D/ZrHung.AppEyeUiProbe: not watching, wait.  D/ZrHung.AppEyeUiProbe: restart watching  

My onClick calls

fun onConnectClick (view: View)      {          val wifiSpecs = WifiNetworkSpecifier.Builder()              .setSsid("SSID")              .setWpa2Passphrase("PASSWORD")              .build()          val networkRequest = NetworkRequest.Builder()              .addTransportType(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_WIFI)              .setNetworkSpecifier(wifiSpecs)              .build()          val connectivityManager = getSystemService((Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE)) as ConnectivityManager          val networkCallback = ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback()            connectivityManager.requestNetwork(networkRequest, networkCallback)          Reply.text = "Connect Clicked"        }  

I have tried replacing

val networkCallback = ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback()

with

val networkCallback = object:ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback() {              override fun onAvailable(network:Network) {                  super.onAvailable(network)                  connectivityManager.bindProcessToNetwork(network)              }  

as mentioned elsewhere but no change
