Forget the Wifi network on your Nokia Asha 306

Once it is completed, you may try again to connect to the Wifi network. If the problem is not solved, go to the next section.

Press the box button

Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may possibly happen to have a problem of authentication Wifi on the Nokia Asha 306 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is incredibly basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is completed, a light will normally start blinking. You can then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Nokia Asha 306. If it still will not function, go to the next trick.

Retype Password

Occasionally the authentication problem originates from the method you type the Wifi network security password. Indeed, it is sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Nokia Asha 306. We for that reason 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 laptop problems, the solution is at times incredibly simple. Indeed, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Nokia Asha 306. After that try to reconnect with your Nokia Asha 306.

Check box settings

If non-e of the previous answers did function, the problem could possibly be found to be on the box of your provider. It will for that reason be necessary to go in the parameters of the box and to check in the event that the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If this is not the case, select this option. After that try to connect your Nokia Asha 306 again to Wifi. If the authentication problem carries on, we advise that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
