B4R Question Access point with password doesn't appear to work as I understand

[BertI]

Must be brain dead tonight ... I'm trying to start up an access point with a password on an ESP8266 so I used:

        APstartok = WiFi.StartAccessPoint2(apss,"xyz123")

where apss is just a string containing the SSID.
However when I try to connect to this I find it is listed as an unsecured network and inded I can connect without any password being requested. Is my understanding wrong or am I not doing something right somewhere else? B4R V2.8

B4R V2.8

Better to use the latest version: https://www.b4x.com/b4r.html

Test it with a password with at least 8 characters.

Thanks Erel. Yes I can confirm it worked fine when I increased the password length to 8 characters. I've yet to install the newer version of B4R. Always a bit of trepidation when in the middle of a project but probably better now than later
