So, so that you can actually connect properly to the Wifi network with your Archos 50c Oxygen, we decided to write this guide. So we will observe together what to do and where to look to resolve this problem of Wifi authentication. We will see at initially what you need to do on the Archos 50c Oxygen. At last, we will see what it is required to do and check on your Wifi box.
What to do when the Archos 50c Oxygen has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Archos 50c Oxygen
If perhaps the Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Archos 50c Oxygen may display the text: Authentication or authentication error . If perhaps the problem comes from there, the answer is quite easy. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Archos 50c Oxygen. To get this done, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will after that have the option to choose the option: Forget this network . When it’s done, you can actually try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the problem is not fixed, go to the next section.
Press the box button
Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may happen to have a problem of authentication Wifi on the Archos 50c Oxygen because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is very simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is done, a light will most of the time start blinking. You can actually after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Archos 50c Oxygen. If perhaps it still doesn’t work, go to the next trick.
Retype Password
Sometimes the authentication problem originates from the solution you type the Wifi network security password. In truth, it is sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Archos 50c Oxygen. We therefore advise you to try all the following possibilities:
- Type the code without spaces or hyphens
- Type the security password in uppercase
- Type the security password in lowercase
Restart your box
As in many pc problems, the solution is oftentimes very simple. In truth, 80% of the pc problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore advise you to restart your box and your Archos 50c Oxygen. After that try to reconnect with your Archos 50c Oxygen.
Check box settings
If perhaps non-e of the previous solutions did work, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be required to go in the parameters of the box and to check if the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If perhaps this is not the case, choose this option. After that try to connect your Archos 50c Oxygen again to Wifi. If perhaps the authentication problem remains, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
