Model: RE650  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.6

Hi

I set up my RE650 as an access point. It got connected but the wifi is not protected.

 

I tried to modify the configuration to encrypred but it's not accepting the change and goes back alone to no password mode

 

Any hint?

 

Thanks
