DD-WRT has the option of setting the WiFi mode to "WPA/WPA2" and "TKIP/AES"

Set it to those settings for best compatibility.

    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.


I am still getting the same results.
