Wifi Auth Problem hub 2

Hi any help gratefully received!
I am a customer of Plusnet less than a week. Everything worked fine, suddenly overnight the Hub 2 router has decided that all wifi connections have an auth problem ? I cannot connect unless i use ethernet.
If i disable the password, I can connect and it works fine but obviously i don't want to continue like that.
Any suggestions would help, I personally imagine its a faulty router as it happened overnight.
Thanks!

@Mr_mikey1 have you rebooted, or factory reset the router?
It may just need that after a firmware update overnight.

I would imagine he's disabled security by making type to none
When you look at the >Advanced Settings >Wireless page does the password match the one on the removable card?

Thanks for your replies all :-
*I changed the security type under 'advanced wireless' to 'none' to let everyone in the house connect and it works fine then.
* I've tried to factory reset the router as i did have my own network name etc before but its all factory reset to the default settings and same issue.
* The code on the wifi card does indeed match the password on the Wireless page .
So i'm none further forward i've tried various things last hour or so

That is strange - a full factory reset should force Hub to pick up your credentials.

assuming the Hub is back online and connected to the internet and works with a ethernet cable, I take it your devices see the wifi name, it's just you can not connect to the wifi?
Have you tried a simple password all number or alpha character password, the Hub might protest but accept the warning messages
