2.4 GHz network not accepting password
Hello
I've recently purchased a D7000v2. I can connect fine to the 5GHz network but no devices can connect to the 2.4GHz network. For example, iPhone gives an invalid password error. The SSID has been changed, the password remains same as came with device (and I want to keep it that way).
I've tried clearing the log per previous discussion with no effect.
Firmware is V1.0.0.51_1.0.1
Thanks in advance for any advice to fix this.

Re: 2.4 GHz network not accepting password
Have you tested the 2.4ghz with another password or no password at all just to see if something will connect to the network?

Re: 2.4 GHz network not accepting password
Hi Darren
Thanks for the response. Subsequently to posting I managed to resolve the issue. When I was hitting the firmware update button in the router dashboard it was telling me the firmware was up to date (latest version). Then I eventually figured out that the website contained a much newer version of the firmware. So I downloaded this and installed it, and now my 2.4GHz is working fine.
Thanks
Grant
