Hi all,

this morning the wifi of my router (Asus RT-N56U) suddenly have problems connecting to the 2.4ghz bandwidth, it keeps saying 'Incorrect Password' even though i did not change anything and it was working fine previously. the 5ghz is also slugging and direct LAN cable works well.

I have tried resetting the router, changing ssid, changing password..etc but all didnt work.

anyone can help advice?

Your 2.4ghz radio maybe uplorry le, if you used for many years then it’s common that it’s not working le :(

oh no, it just 'died' like that with incorrect password error ah?

I'm on m1 500mpbs, any recommended model of router to purchase? any place specific to recommend to buy from?

Easiest and fastest way is to go to the nearest challenger store

Thanks guys for the help:s47:, was puzzled how come the error was 'Incorrect password' when i didn't change it.

Now then i know uplorry will cause it, Asus needs to improve on its error messages man

i will get a replacement router.

You can reset the router and configure again.

Sometimes maybe configure heywire.
