I already had this problem in the past and found a solution on this forum. Unfortunately I can't find it now. I know I found a link in one of the posts that got me to the answer...
What happened is that my WiFi works without security enabled. When I enable it it stops working.
Explanation I remember is that part of a memory where password is stored it corrupted in some way and need to be deleted with a command(Administration -> Commands). Can anyone help me find a original post or know a command?
Mods, please move to Broadcom. _________________ "The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

From what I remember solution was not for my router but it worked anyway...

Perhaps you have a WRT54GL?
Will transfer this to the Broadcom forum.
See the forum guidelines with helpful pointers about how to research your router, where and what firmware to download, where and how to post and many other helpful tips:

Your build is very old and has security issues.
Unless you are using the VPN I would consider updating to a recent build (as of now 49268).
Correct. Also, to note: don't mix tkip and WPA/WPA2 for wireless security; this may break your wifi. You can also forget network on any wireless clients and re-try authentication. _________________ "The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

Thanks! Commands helped... As for a upgrade... I will not do that unless absolutely necessary since it took me some time to find a version that works with everything I need. When I was setting up this I know some versions didn't work with my Phone PPTP and/or ADSL...
