RT-AC88U Korean model requires WPA password complexity

[adept1]

Does anyone know of any way to remove the WPA complexity requirement. Apparently this is unique to the Korean version. My boss insists on not using a special char in his WPA password (don't kill the messenger please ).

Is there anything in the SSH commands or other way to address this? Simply flashing it with Merlin didn't change the behavior.

Thanks!

Try this:

nvram show | grep wl.*_psk | sort

Then:

nvram set wl0_wpa_psk="mypassword"
nvram set wl1_wpa_psk="mypassword"
nvram commit
service restart_wireless

Thanks! Will try this tomorrow.
