Take a string as bytes is bad with weird non-ASCII characters. Been there, been bitten in the ass by it.
At least with e-mail clients different clients on different operating systems use different encoding by default for their passwords.
With a router I could imagine different client apps following different standards.

You don't have to take arbitrary bytes. UTF-8 encoded strings are just fine and easily handled by libraries.

The manufacturer obviously also makes the app and can control the encoding.

Many routers can also be controlled via Telnet, which will also use different encodings depending on your OS.
