iPhones suddenly will not connect to Archer C4000 router - says incorrect PW...
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I noticed the other day that my wireless connection to my router with my iPhone was spotty, so today I finally had time so I restarted the cable modem and the C4000. Since I did so, we cannot connect with our iPhones anymore, it keeps saying that the PW is incorrect, but that is not possible. I have verified the password is correct in the admin tool, and I can connect via my laptop, although it appears to be a weak connection event though I am sitting right next to it.
The hardwire router functionality works fine, I can connect via Ethernet and all of my hardwired devices work fine. Just cannot connect with iPhones. I have had to set up another old router to get wireless devices working for now.
I have reloaded the firmware, restarted everything numerous times, but it did nothing, the issue remains. I have had this router since late October 2018, and it has been flawless up until now. Disappointed that I am having these issues...
Can I get an older version of the firmware to see if that will fix the problem? I cannot find older versions on the support website.

Carl,
I'm familiar with enterprise level support and the interaction with support and engineering. In my experience, they're not going to do much without data.
What logs/traces/functions could you have me collect/perform to assist?

Hello,
Im adding to this string. I have Iphones 7+ with IOS 13. I can connect however, there is severe lag in between downloads, Especially Facebook. Facebook is almost unusable due to the severe lag. I'm on my first Factory reset. I have plugged in my old tried a true Linksys router and all is perfect. Im following this string to see what, if anything, can be done without having to let go of the TP-Link.
