Hi,

 

It's the same issue as happens when trying to connect some of Xiaomi's phones to some of TP-Link's router models. (check this thread if you'd like, https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/233622 )

 

Basically, the security standard can't be set to "WPA2-PSK" only, as most would prefer. You have to allow the older "WPA-PSK" as well.

 

In the case of the Archer AX50 you achieve that by setting the "Version" option to "Auto" as shown below.
