Cannot connect via wifi

Post by ViBE »

I already noticed this but now I'm sure that after 5-7 days of run my Nexx WT3020 does not let my devices to connect. Not sure what should I check to figure out the problem but I only see this when a device tries to connect on wifi:

I'm on 1.9.2. The devices see the network but cannot access.

Meanwhile I found something different:

One last thing but I guess it's not related:

Does the problem still occur after a re-flash?

No, you have fixed the problem with a reflash

or

No, you haven't tired a re-flash

Oh, so. I already did in the past. This installation is about 7 months old. I also noticed this problem on my other router (I have two of this model) but I didn't care too much cause I restarted the system frequently before. This is the first time when restarts cannot fix this problem.

I guess not. No sign of that. It starts and runs well. On LAN the connection works but wifi devices stucks when try to get IP. After a few restarts the issue disappeared but as I said above the wifi problem come back around 7 days uptime.
