I am using a floating point custom build from frightanic.com, but that shouldn't make any difference.

Please see my Developer FAQ for Q&A on nodeMCU Lua before asking a question here that's already been answered. This and the other official documentation should be your first reference for developing Lua Apps

The wifi.sta.status function never returns wrong password even if we give one. Did you guys notice?

I have seen similar issues and I think its due to your router cashing DHCP.. can have just a commend in the init.lua script and my router will show it as attached.

Building from dev code is great if you want to live on the bleeding edge or want to alter the firmware yourself. Other than that frightanic is a lot less hassle to get a reasonably up to date build with only those modules that you actually require.
