Jan 14, 20215G wrong Password Tried many fixes all fail
Hi, I have an new replaced EX7700 Extender with latest software V1.0.0.210. Every day or so it disconnects from my 5G router and connects to 2G. When I try to go back to 5G it says wrong password. ...

Jan 14, 2021Thanks! Found the .206 file downloaded and updated ( backdated the extender) factort reset as I was setting it up it asked for passwords for my 2G and 5G ( they are the same) and then tried to connect, came back with 5G password incorrect, I tred again and it took the 5G and I am now connected to 5G.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and see over the next few days if the issue is fixed. Double check it did ask me to auto update a couple of time, and I've disabled auto update and it is still at the .206 file.
