Wireless WPA2 PSK Password

I think this is a bug as it had me stumped most of this evening.
Under Connection -> Basic -> Wireless -> Password:
there is a 'reveal' checkbox. Selecting this reveals the router Administrator password, not the wireless encryption password. Furthermore selecting 'Save' on this page will actually save the administrator password as the encryption password, overwriting the ACTUAL wireless encryption password.
It would be related to the fact that one can select 'Use Password For ... no username' IF the password field is clicked within - in my case I had not done that so it should not have changed.

FIrmware version: 1.9.0.2 (r49118)
Hardware: TP-Link TL-WR1043N/ND v3

That's an unofficial version, but I'll look into it. Seems off that no one else has ever reported that and that is a pretty major bug.

Can You show a screenshot of the two sections you are referring to just to make it clear?
Also did you happen to have several windows or tabs open on the Gargoyle interface? This can cause unexpected behaviour and is not recommended.

Ok I'll check this evening.
You're saying that the wifi password is still correct right? And the admin password is still correct?
But, when revealing the wifi password, up comes the admin password?


If I can confirm this, that is completely bizarre.

That is correct. I thought you might be onto something regarding the multiple instances of the same web page open but turns out that is not the cause.
