Does not connect to the WiFi network about esp32-cam_mjpeg2sd HOT 8 CLOSED

Thanks for sharing your findings, I'll add the new board definition in the next release

from esp32-cam_mjpeg2sd.

v9.6.2 released

from esp32-cam_mjpeg2sd.

[00:00:07.613 WARN startWifi] SSID HomeNetWiFi unable to connect Probably wrong password
Set password on web page in Access Settings.
Dont modify code.

from esp32-cam_mjpeg2sd.

yes, I tried using the web page ( as attached pic) a few times before modifying the code but no luck. The password is correct as I tried the same SSID/PW ( cut/paste and manually enter) with another WiFi code; worked fine.
what I feel is
a. PW word doesn't save in NVS
b. adding or chopping   characters while saving
c. my PW is alphanumeric and has the symbol #

pls note this is a closed WiFi network that does not have internet access.

I have the same problem!
I am using Seeed xiao esp32s3 sens. i have followed the instalation manual completely. The module works just fine capturing, writing the data to the sd card, the sole problem is that it is unable to connect to the WIFI network.

P.S While inspecting the configs file on the SD card, I was not able to find the password in it.
P.S2 I set up a guest network without PW, but now I get this message Failed to ping gateway, restart wifi ...

made it to work, finally
hope my findings may help someone ...
i didn't change the code other than to add my new S3(New) board got it from Aliexpress as attached.
those changes were;

in camerapins.h
// added f0r NEW ESP32 S3 from AliExpress 01MAR2024
#elif defined(CAMERA_MODEL_NEW_ESPS3_RE1_0)
#define CAM_BOARD "CAMERA_MODEL_NEW_ESPS3_RE1_0"
#define PWDN_GPIO_NUM -1
#define RESET_GPIO_NUM -1
#define XCLK_GPIO_NUM 10
#define SIOD_GPIO_NUM 21
#define SIOC_GPIO_NUM 14

#define Y9_GPIO_NUM 11
#define Y8_GPIO_NUM 9
#define Y7_GPIO_NUM 8
#define Y6_GPIO_NUM 6
#define Y5_GPIO_NUM 4
#define Y4_GPIO_NUM 2
#define Y3_GPIO_NUM 3
#define Y2_GPIO_NUM 5
#define VSYNC_GPIO_NUM 13
#define HREF_GPIO_NUM 12
#define PCLK_GPIO_NUM 7

#define LED_GPIO_NUM 34

for SD card, in appGlobals.h

#define SD_MMC_CLK 42
#define SD_MMC_CMD 39
#define SD_MMC_D0 41

MIC pins: have to config in web GUI
WS 37
SCK 36
SD 35

not sure if any changes have to be made for a new board, but works for me
following is my workaround to make this code to work for me
for passwords, symbols like # and * don't work (could be more)
but @ and ! works (could be more)
so the best is to start with just 'alphanumeric' before going to a fancy PW with symbols.

a weird experience, most likely just for me....
initially, I tested with my testbench WAP then I changed it to a different WAP. as expected (not really) did not work. after sending a few hours of testing, change the current WiFi CH 11 to CH 1, and start to work again.
