Replacing RBR40 with RBR 750

[mark146]

I'm replacing an RBR40 with an RBR750. The PW protocol has changed—my RBR40 didn't require caps, while the 750 requires one cap. 

I'm changing the network name to avoid making changes on all devices, but the 750's password protocol is defeating that idea. Is there a workaround to that issue, like a way to change the PW protocol?

There's probably a 100% chance I'm confused. I'll monkey around with it more over the weekend and reply. Thank you for pointing that out. I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff.

Are you talking about the log in PW? Log in PW requires a Cap

The WIFI SSID PW doesn't require anything. I use all lower case with mine. Been use same SSID name for years.

Yes, thank you, you were correct! I'm sorry I didn't mention this earlier, I appreciate your help!

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
