I have two Wireless security cams that are saving video to a NAS (Buffalo drive on readyshare with no password).
However, in my router logs I have;
[WLAN access rejected: incorrect security] from MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:06, Monday, October 24,2016 20:34:44 [WLAN access rejected: incorrect security] from MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:ca, Monday, October 24,2016 20:33:49
These messages are occurring every minute.
The wireless setup is correct as far as I can tell. The cam SSID, password, WPA2-PSK, AES settings are all correct. Everything is working fine; I can wirelessly connect to the cameras to adjust settings etc., the cams are writing their video via FTP to the Buffalo and all seems ok.
But obviously the cams are trying to connect and cannot. What am I doing wrong?, any ideas?
Today I reverted to my previous modem unit and my internet service is now fully restored and working properly.
The cam messages are still appearing, such as;
[WLAN access rejected: incorrect security] from MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:ca, Friday, October 28,2016 19:35:33
The operation of the cams, their http access and the ftp connection to the NAS is all working properly. I'll just live with the messages. I don't know why they occur but I suspect it's when the cams both want ftp access concurrently (it's the only theory which seems to fit).
Yes, they're my cameras. I can access their web interface via Wireless, they can save video to my NAS by wireless, but they keep throwing that access message. Not sure what's going on. They also update via NTP and that works.
I have the ftp setup with no password (wireless only no http), so the cams have authentication "on", the username set as "guest" and no password. I also tried turning authentication "off" but the result was the same.
I checked the logs for today and I get one set of messages that says;
[Access Control] Device NC328W-IR-1080P with MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:06 is allowed to access the network. Thursday, October
[Access Control] Device NC328W-IR-1080P with MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:CA is allowed to access the network. Thursday, October
and the rest of the log is all;
[WLAN access rejected: incorrect security] from MAC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:06, Thursday, October 27,2016 19:24:01

It was doing this behaviour, so I updated the firmware and it's still doing it. So I know the current and the 'current-1' versions behave the same.
I really don't know what's going on, I think I must have tried every combination of settings but still the same result. I'm getting internet dropouts quite often since I upgraded from a Ubee hub to the VM SuperHub (in modem mode). Unfortunately I can't go backwards on that to try it, since the old modem is no longer provisioned on the network. The dropouts were the reason I started checking the router logs.
The intermittent internet is a bug with the VM SuperHub 3, it drops the connection every 34 minutes. There is a pending firmware update for that which I'm trying to find out when that will be released. If it's weeks away, then I will revert to the previous hub (I use it in modem mode), but to do that I need VM to re-enable it.
Today I reverted to my previous modem unit and my internet service is now fully restored and working properly.
