Hey guys,
I am staying in a hotel apartment and when I select the SSID the password input box vanishes. This does not happen when i select other SSID’S that are available. Any thoughts?

Firmware: OpenWrt 18.06.1 r7258-5eb055306f / LuCI openwrt-18.06 branch (git-18.196.56128-9112198)
Software 3.22. (Same issue with 3.12)
Note: The main router is physically in the apartment that I am trying to connect to and use as a repeater.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Also, I have updated the software to 3.26 with no change.

Does the hotel SSID have captive portal? you can refer to the documentation in Connect to Captive Portal - GL.iNet Docs

Thanks. They do not have a captive portal and I tried that solution several times. The hotel/apt. router is physically located in the apartment and I have access to it.

I can connect the router to the 300N using a cable. Can I take advantage of that option?
FYI. I am able to connect to my friends router with ease.

Do you have a password input box for the hotel SSID connecting with your mobile phone？

7

Yes. No problems there. Phones, laptops identifies SSID, password and connects immediately.

Hi，Jay
Please confirm whether there are multiple SSIDs with the same name , encrypted and unencrypted.

Thanks. Nope. I don’t see it in the SSID drop down or when I do a site scan. However, I will double check the unencrypted bit again.

Does the hotel area has both encrypted and unencrypted SSIDs?

Yes. They do. Currently I am in South East Asia and I see the same issue. It is apparent to me the device/software is malfunctioning. The router has failed miserably when I required it the most. Well, I have given up hope of finding a solution- will be tossing it into my junk box when I get home.
