Nighthawk R7000 Saved/Check Password try again error

My phone (Pixel 8 Pro) all of a sudden won't connect to my Nighthawk R7000 router. Anyone know what is causing this? I have forgot the network and tried to reconnect, NG. I have reset the router, NG....

Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

What FW is loaded on the R7000?

I am running the latest update from Google on the Pixel, updated 11/06. I made sure the MAC randomizer is off and just set to phone. Still nothing. I checked for updates on the router last night when I was connected and it said no update available so I must be on the latest.

  Do other devices connect to the router?

    Yes, there are multiple other devices connected. Tvs, smart speakers, a computer. Probably 10 devices? Girlfriends pixel 7 pro connects no problem.
