What device are you connecting with?   FROM MacBook
Did you use the forget this network feature then try to re-connect then re-enter the password? I did it, also refreshed DHCP too

 

Revert the PW change on the CAX to what had been working if nothing else to see if this resolves. Yep changed back, also rebooted CAX

Any special characters in the password configuration? Yes, but it was working before the issue

Please try something simple with out any special characters and see.

Is this the only device that is having problems or do all devices see this?
