I can't connect to my wifi (turns out I messed up the config)

I just bought the Beryl and flashed it with the latest 24.10.0 OpenWrt build (openwrt-24.10.0-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-mt3000-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin). When I set up a simple basic wifi network on the router (wifi to function as access point) with WPA2-PSK security, my clients can't connect unless I make the network completely open. I do not have this issue on my Flint 2 (GL-MT6000) running the same OpenWrt version and the same wifi security. Is anyone else having this issue? Are there known bugs? Should I be on a different OpenWrt version? Thanks.

You didn't simply C&P the config file across, did you ?

Please connect to your OpenWrt device using ssh and copy the output of the following commands and post it here using the "Preformatted text </> " button:

Remember to redact passwords, MAC addresses and any public IP addresses you may have:

ubus call system board
cat /etc/config/network
cat /etc/config/wireless
cat /etc/config/dhcp
cat /etc/config/firewall

I reset the router and retested and do not find the issue again. The first time I had made the router be a client to another wifi network on 2.4 ghz and had the security issue on 5ghz as I was setting it up for a travel router use case of repeat 2.4 ghz network to 5ghz. When I redid it, I setup the 5Ghz access point first, then the 2.4 ghz client and found no issue.

So your definitive statement that there is a :

"Wifi Security Bug on GL.iNet GL-MT3000 Beryl"

should actually read:

"I could not connect to my wifi - turns out I messed up the config"
