Time on Mars is manually set to local german time.

Mars WILL connect:
- to my iphone 8 mobile hotspot with all lowercase password set
- to my routers wifi with encryption off

Mars will NOT connect:
- to my routers wifi if password protected
- to a Huawei E5885 wifi routers 2,4 wifi w/ password
- to my routers 2,4 ghz guest wifi w/ password

So the only safe connection would be via my phones hotspot (eating my mobile volume).

I am at loss here. My older ebook readers (kindle paperwhite 3rd gen, kobo glo) connect fine with the routers wifi setting on full auto and wifi mesh enabled. The mars is the touchiest ereader ever.
Can you post a pic of your 2.4g band settings on the router while blacking out your mac, ssid, pass? The device should work with a code but I wonder if with a code your router is adding some frame management ect it can't use.
