The network security key is incorrect.

Hello, I recently changed my Freebox and received a new Wi-Fi password.
The Wi-Fi works correctly on all my electronic devices: smartphone, console, etc. But I can't connect the Wi-Fi to my Windows laptop; every time I enter the password, it says "The network security key is incorrect" or "Unable to connect to the Wi-Fi network," even though I'm sure I've entered the correct code and haven't modified or forgotten any characters. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thank you in advance

Hello.

Check if it's the right key by going to the Freebox settings at http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/, it's also possible to connect automatically via WPS.

Hello,

also, if your network card isn't great and doesn't handle two networks 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz well at the same time, try setting up two different SSID names for the 2.4 and 5 GHz networks:

for example Solal2 and Solal5 to see if it works better on one than the other, to differentiate them, there's a checkbox in the wifi config of the FBX in freeboxOS.

And there you go ....

But damn, those line spacings are annoying !!
