R7800 Doesn't accept password on devices

Starting to regret this very much.  I had a UVERSE combo modem/router that we bridged through (Passthrough) and set up a stand alone router so the whole house could get some range and speed.  Bought this AC2600 R7800 and set it up.  Everything connected but now theres a few devices (Iphones etc) where it just keeps asking for the password.  Some devices remain connected, but some do not. My wireless printer, for example (which is right next to the thing), I phones, I pads, Home Theater receiver etc.  Wifi Signal shows up just fine but it wont connect. SO annoying.  I am not a technical person so if you can help me out, please do so in very easy terms and steps.  Reset it?  How often do I have to do that? Everyday?  There has to be a solution.

Hi KevinCarney,

 

What is the firmware version of the router? Make sure to update it.

Make sure as well that the network SSID of R7800 is saved on the device.
