During the last few days, my home WiFi network has been misbehaving where my laptops, desktops and smartphones lose Internet connection several times a day and an alert pops up on my iPhone asking for my password to the network. When I enter it, it says that it is invalid. A few minutes later, it connects to the network just fine. I tried rebooting the router and the Deco, but the problem keeps recurring.

@jettamesis I have the same issue.  Invalid password issues and connections dropping for no reason.

If your wireless password has special characters, try and change it to have letters and numbers to see if you still get the errors. You will need to forget the wireless network as it will try to use the old password and say it can not connect. You want the client device to get prompted for the new password.

@Tony 

My current password uses only letters and numbers and no special characters.

If you enable the guest network, and only connect your phone to that network are you seeing the same instances?
