@TP-Link

I finally found the problem with my network's "Incorrect password"

I have done the setup trough my phone so when I've entered the password I've pressed the space bar in the end by accident. So.. the password was correct all the time but that interval messed it up.. :D

Hope this would be of help to somebody with the same problem ;)) DOUBLE CHECK THE SPELLING OF YOUR PASSWORD!!!

Thanks for your suggestions.

Try changing SSID to something simple like MyNetwork and password to something simple like 123456. If that works, perhaps there were special symbol(s) in original SSID/password that Deco doesn't like.

@nkl

Yes, Alexandre is quite right.

And please feel free to update here if you find any special symbols that caused this issue.

Thank you very much.
