Hi @tVSf
Thanks for posting in our business forum.
We have noticed several feedback on this and I have reported it to the senior engineers and dev team. If your wireless network is not affected, then you don't have to worry about that.
I currently cannot guarantee it'll be 100% addressed in the public release. But whatever you reported, I'll pass it on to the related teams.
Thanks for passing it on to the dev team. I tent to disagree with your suggestion not to be worried about WPA failures. It's security related and the wireless network doesn't feel safe if there are permanent authentication failures.

Hi @tVSf
That error means the failure to authenticate with the EAP. Weak signal can cause a packet loss which this packet could be your WPA authentication. The idea of handshake in networking. The EAP did not receive the return of the WPA authentication and it counts this as a failure.
If someone is cracking your password, you can also rest assured as if you use the recommended encryption, and your password is complicated, basically, there is zero chance that someone can crack it.
I've come across news that 8*RTX 4090 takes about an hour to crack an 8-digit password. Not to mention that this is based on a lot of knowledge of passwords/encryption and other factors. So, it is not easy or cheap to crack the password. For regular people who want to crack a password, with a single CPU, that could take years...

unfortunately i cannot reboot the er7212pc itself there.
is there another option to schedule this?

Hi @Toine
Then no. This device does not support CLI. So not possible to boot it by CLI. If the reboot schedule cannot allow you set it to a schedule, then there is no support in native software.
Probably use a smart switch to reboot it by cutting the power.
Update:
And it was not available on this version. I edited it and this "new feature" is removed.
