[Discuss] OpenWRT Change WiFi Password

I tried to change the WiFi password for the 2.4G channel using the luci interface, and also in /etc/config/wireless. According to the luci interface, it has changed, and also in the config file. I was then able to login on several devices, but after a while, the WiFi disconnected and when I tried to login again, it said "wrong password". If I used the old password, it says that it connects, but there is no internet. If I look at the config file and the luci interface, they both show the new password. 

Any idea what is going on, and how I can fix it? The 5G channel is working OK (but some of my devices are not 5G compatible). 

Thanks for any help, 

Murray 

PS hope to see some of you virtually on Saturday. MS
