Hi all, firs time using DD-WRT. I picked up a WRT3200ACM and flashed DD on it, all went well. I set up all 3 wireless networks (is that necessary or can I just setup the mixed one?) and my devices can connect. However, once I add a WPA2 personal password, all devices are dropped and they can't connect back. They are never prompted for a password. I did some research but I didn't really find anything useful. Any ideas?

Ok, we know you have a wrt3200acm, but our magic crystal ball is a little hazy on what build revision you flashed or your actual configurations, specifically wireless. Please refer to the forum rules and guidelines to help us better help you.

I'm sorry, I'll try to be more specific. The configuration is entirely stock, as the flash is brand new. The firmware I flashed is DD-WRT v3.0-r46177 std.

Let me guess. Apple devices? Or are you trying to allow TKIP with AES...

No, no client can connect. I will try my laptop running linux.

I don't know what that is. If it isn't a default option then I don't have it enabled. I haven't touched anything configuration wise.

WRT3200ACM is tri-stream, not tri-band. Disable wireless network mode for interface SD8887; this is wlan2.

SD8887 is useless and has no external antennas. This was originally meant to listen for DFS radar detection.

This worked for me. Thank you so much, never would have known that.
