WLAN password must be re-entered [duplicate]
asked 2014-08-12 09:52:24 +0300
Recently I have been asked to re-enter the password to my home WLAN. It happened several times a day for a while, which lead me to believe it was related to channel hops by the router. This seems to not be the case as I was asked to enter the password again this morning.
Normally I am not asked to re-enter the password, e.g. when I came home from work yesterday the connection to the home WLAN was established without me having to enter a password.
I don't know what causes it, since the router is now configured to always use the same channel. However, I can not recall having the behaviour before the update to 1.0.8.19.
I got the same problem too.

strongm ( 2014-08-12 11:57:47 +0300 )editI found this question which I think is for the same issue. I do have a repeater/extender at home, and it does use the same SSID.
Unfortunately I didn't find when searching (WLAN + password) before adding my own question.
Chinauser and Strongm - do you also have repeaters? If so, I think this can probably be closed as a duplicate.

chinauser ( 2014-08-12 12:26:37 +0300 )editI don't have a repeater and have noticed this behavior as well. It does not always happen, but I noticed it's related to having a weak wi-fi signal.
