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)
My password only contains lowercase and numbers, it is 15 characters long though - is it possible that the length is also a factor ?
