Model: TL-WR841N_EU  
Hardware Version: V14
Firmware Version:

For the life of me, I cannot change the password of the access point to one of my own. As soon as I do it, all my devices says that the password is wrong but it isn't. If I let the default password (8 numbers) everything is fine. The password isn't that long to create issues and it is just capital letters and numbers. Is this a known issue?

  @McDx I've solved it. It was a stupid mistake. Somehow my phone saved my router password with a SPACE at the end. It was really difficult to see that there was a space character at the end. Problem solved!

Try making the password something simple first as a test like 12345678. See if the devices connect to the simple password. Then make the password more difficult.
