CAX30: Can't connect using WiFi after Netgear Armor trial period ends
I have a fairly new Nighthawk AX6/CAX30 modem/router, using it with Cox, have had it for just over a month. It came with a one month free trial of Netgear Armor. I'd been getting emails for the last ...
Also try going in on the app and ensuring the both armor and access control are disabled.
So, for some reason, the passwords in the router had an extra space added to the end of them that was not there previously. Not obvious at all, and no idea how that happened. I still blame the Armor trial! :)
Came home tonight and devices can't connect to Wi-Fi again. Power cycling didn't fix it. Verified that the passwords are correct. WTF
What FW version is the CAX30 using?
What channels are you using on the CAX?
What security mode are you using?
I recommend doing a full on factory reset and setup from scratch using a PC and web browser:

I use manual channels 1 and 40 and set mixed mode WPA2/WPA3.
