WPA means “Wifi Protected Association”, it’s a way to connect a new device without the wifi password, if you press the WPS button (then for a short while the box allows associations)
Do try pressing the WPS button just after rebooting the sensor.
But I’m worried because the sensor itself does plan to use the box log/pass that you entered, without needing WPA.
Is there a separate antenna on your sensor, that would maybe happen to be unscrewed (or missing)?

? This is basic installation of a sensor.
Can you tell us what sensor you have and who has build it
and what is the firmware version
Is it an old installation?

Have you tried to read the USB log of the sensor ? It would be very interesting for us to know what happens.
Have you copy/pasted the PW ?

I have te sensor that is showed on that page. I put it togheter at a local workshop, with 20 others. It was in 2020 or 2021. It worked perfect until I changed providers.

I am pretty sure it is because of the WPS. Can you deactivate it ?.
Please send me the exact reference of the routeur I will find picture and spec myself.
