Once moOde successfully configures the wpa_supplicant file, it's Linux that handles the network connection during reboot.

Tried rebooting the router - no joy

I recently changed my WiFi passcode to a more complex one (20 characters with special characters included). After doing so, I experienced the same issues as you. So I loaded a SD card with Moode V 5 just to see if the problem was with Version 6. Turns out I could connect with version 5 with that passcode. So I then tried version 6 with a 20 character passcode ( and no special characters) to see if length was the issue. I had no problem logging on with that configuration. So finally I removed the $ and # characters from the original passcode and was able to log on with version 6.3. So it appears to be a special character issue specific to version 6. I know you said that you did not use any special characters in your passcode so this won't help you directly, but maybe someone else can use the info. Sorry.

moOde 6 series converts entered WiFi passwords to WPA/WPA2 pre-shared keys and does not store/use the plaintext passwords like the 5 series.

What I've discovered is that the utility, wpa_passphrase, that preforms the conversion to PSK does not escape characters like $, ! and ` (back quote) and others that cause the command to bomb.

I'm working on some code to eliminate this problem for the upcoming 6.4.0 release (November)
