Customer set “Enable password-based authentication” at SSH setting by mistake.  
Then, customer cannot login WP7702 module by SSH because customer did not set “Enable password-based authentication”.  
Customer would like to recover SSH login information again.

To recover WP7702, customer did “swiflash -m “wp77xx” -r” command but customer saw “callback status 59399DONE ERROR”.  
When customer send “swiflash -m “wp77xx” -i “xxx.spk”” command, there is not any error.

Customer already installed SWI driver. Please advise good recovery process for SSH information.

Thanks. But we cannot enter WP7702 module by SSH. How to recovery it without FW downgrade.  
Note: Current FW version is 02.36.06.00 for WP7702.

option 1:you can use UART console  
option 2: FW downgrade or swiflash does not need SSH.
