Maybe make sure your router is using WPA/WPA2 and TKIP/AES and then
try again.

I purchased some WiFi-controlled light switches recently, and
have spent several hours today trying to set up a separate
SSID on my home router for the WiFi devices, as a security
measure. I am running DD-WRT v24-sp2 on a Linksys E1200 v2
router. The problem I run into is that, whenever I try to
connect to the secondary SSID, my phone tells me that the
password is incorrect, even though I made sure the password I
entered matches what I set up for that SSID. I can connect to
the primary SSID without any problems. Does anyone have any
suggestions?
Further testing has revealed that I can connect to it fine if I
set it to not have a password. Setting a password (and using WPA2
security) results in the "incorrect password" error. It is
definitely a DD-WRT bug, rather than a hardware issue.
I verified that my router is using WPA2 Personal and TKIP. On the phone
side, there is no way to specify that; I suppose it queries the router
when it tries to connect. I can connect to the physical interface
without a problem (it is also using WPA2 Personal and TKIP), and I can
connect to the virtual interface if I set its security to "None", but
trying to connect to it with it using WPA2 Personal results in the phone
displaying "authenticating" for about half a second, then popping up a
dialog box that says I entered the wrong password, even though I entered
the correct password. I have also posted a message on the DD-WRT forum
about this issue.
