What to do when the Huawei P8 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Huawei P8
In cases where the Wi-Fi network to which you desire to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Huawei P8 may display the message: Authentication or authentication error . In cases where the trouble comes from there, the solution is fairly simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Huawei P8. To achieve this, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will after that have the option to select the option: Forget this network . Once it is done, you can actually try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the trouble is not fixed, go to the next section.
Press the box button
Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it might happen to have a trouble of authentication Wifi on the Huawei P8 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you wish to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it can be very simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When ever this is done, a light will most of the time start blinking. Youre able to after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Huawei P8. In cases where it still does not work, go to the next trick.
Retype Security password
Sometimes the authentication problem originates from the way you type the Wifi network security password. In truth, it can be sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Huawei P8. 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 computer problems, the solution is sometimes very simple. In truth, 80% of the computer problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Huawei P8. After that try to reconnect with your Huawei P8.
Check box settings
In cases where non-e of the prior answers did work, the problem could be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be necessary to go in the parameters of the box and to test whenever the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . In cases where this is not the case, select this option. After that try to connect your Huawei P8 again to Wifi. In cases where the authentication trouble remains, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
