[SOLVED] TL-WR842 19.07 wifi can't connect with win10 (ok android)

SOLVED: problem caused by char "è" in the passphrase

I've recently flashed a tp-link wr842nd v1 with openwrt 19.07 ( OpenWrt 19.07.7 r11306-c4a6851c72 )
All seems going well. However after a while I realized that all my notebook (hp with windows 10) are unable to connect, despite all my other devices (android mobile aand tablet) haven't any problem.

In the system log I've found these lines when I try to connect from my nootebook .

daemon.info hostapd: wlan0: STA macnotebook IEEE 802.11: authenticated
Wed Apr  7 09:33:38 2021 daemon.info hostapd: wlan0: STA macnotebook IEEE 802.11: associated (aid 2)
Wed Apr  7 09:33:38 2021 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH macnotebook
Wed Apr  7 09:33:39 2021 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH macnotebook
Wed Apr  7 09:33:40 2021 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH macnotebook
Wed Apr  7 09:33:41 2021 daemon.notice hostapd: wlan0: AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH macnotebook

I've the settings below . I've also tried on access point to disable these options :
WMM Mode , (KRACK) countermeasures, Short Preamble, Disassociate On Low Acknowledgement.
On the client tried to disable w10 option "random mac adress"

-mode "N"
-chanel "auto"
[general]
-mode: tried ap and ap (wds)
[security]
-wireless security is set to wpa2-psk
-cipher: auto
-passphrase contain the char "è" (not tried if it may be the origin of my problems)
-mac filter disabled
[advanced]

yes, it may be the origin of your problem ....

Ops :hushed:
You are correct

tried fastly to remove the char "è" from the passphrase and all go without problem
