When I try to connect to my Wifi network it comes up with 'Bad password'.

It is a WPA2-PSK secured network and I'm 100% sure that the pass phrase is correct. Anyone else had this problem?

(PS. Should this be posted on HF instead?)

Check the network properties on the Network Manager and change to WPA2-PSK in the passphrase type.

It is on WPA2-PSK by default.

Then I would check your routers setting, log into it via ethernet and see if any settings have been changed.

Have you tried removing the password? Do that and see if it still has a problem.
