If you can get a login prompt in normal mode through wi-fi, then likely the issue is your password. Make sure you aren't using dashes or spaces in the script you are using to obtain it.

Thank you for clarification.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work.
The output of the internetsite is the same as the python-script (surley, because it's the same algorithm).
'fiona1def'.
But I still get:

root@192.168.0.102's password:fiona1def
Permission denied, please try again.

Any other idea?


Edit:
I'm an idiot
Sorry, it was (obviously) my fault.
I thought the serial number was the number next to the firmware version...
When in fact, it was of course the number next to "serial number:".
Now it works!
Even so, thank you for your help
