RBR40 / RBS40 Firmware Version 2.1.1.12 removes characters from wifi password

After updating Orbi RBR40 firmware to Version 2.1.1.12 after a reboot the system removes the characters “$ew0” from the wifi password. I had to fall back to RBR40 firmware version 2.0.0.26. Looking for an update to correct this defect.

They are aware with the issues with special characters in the passwords and working on the fix.
