Guest Password on RBR750 Orbi Doesn't Work
Hi: I set a guest password for my RBR50 Orbi Router -- using Orbi app on iPhone and also from the web admin page. But, whenever I try to login to it via phone or computer, it says "incorrect password." I've confirmed I'm using the correct one (that includes a cap letter, three numbers and two punctuation marks). I changed the Guest WiFi Settings security method from WPA2-Personal to WPA/WOA2-Personal and neither made a difference. I also rebooted the router via the Orbi app. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What devices do you have connected?
What special characters are you using?
As a test, does Password123 work if you set this using the RBRs web page?

Thank you. By removing special characters (exclamation marks) it works great. Thanks!
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
