I'm having a really irritating problem. Due to some problems we've been having with out Wi-Fi at the house, we recently had to reset a bunch of things, one being the password. It used to be "Family06" (Lame. I know) but is now "$1234567890". The problem is that whenever I click "Gullion Home" (Our Wi-Fi name), Keychain automatically puts the password "Family06" in, and it tells me that it's the wrong one. In order to get online, I have to click "Other Network" on the Internet Connect screen, re-select "Gullion Home", then type in "$1234567890".

I've tried to reset the password on Keychain Access, but for some reason every time I try to, it freezes.

Have you tried KeyChain First Aid? It's in the menu when KeyChain is launched.

you could try deleting the keychain for that connection and starting over

I did that (both options), but it said nothing is wrong.

I just tried this, and it asked for my password, but when I typed it in, it said it was wrong. :Grimmace:

I've tried to use both my system password, and the actual "Family06" password, but every time I do it, it either says "Invalid Password", or it freezes.
